    Hmmm, anti-Canadian sentiment by "professionals", including a moderator. I am disappointed.

    I run that corridor regularly, and I can say with confidence that in those rare instances where a wreck like this was caused by a truck and not by an idiot 4 wheeler, the driver in question is typically driving in his/her first Canadian winter. I will not go so far as to post racist comments, but those of us who are at least TRYING to be politically correct refer to them as "New Canadians."

    I refer you to a thread I posted almost 8 years ago. http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ries/51557-anti-canadian-sentiment-texas.html

    That's your solution, huh? Nice example you're setting. See also my 7 year old thread on Anti Canadian Sentiment in Texas.

    Why should I apologize for Bryan Adams? I have already begged the world's forgiveness on Canada's behalf for giving you Celine Dion, William Shatner, and Justin Bieber... not gonna apologize for a guy who actually has talent.

    Oh, and ha ha ha ha... "aboot"... never heard THAT one before. Also never met anyone who says it. Do you talk like Moon Unit Zappa, surf, have a guy whose name is pronounced "hay-SOOS" to do your yard work, or have so much plastic surgery that Dow Corning sent you a thank you card for their stock price increase? Didn't think so. Tell ya what, don't make assumptions about ME, and I won't make assumptions about YOU.

    So this is the mentality of the people who moderate for this website? if I posted something like this
    it would have been erased by a moderator at the very least. I thought this website was to help out
    truck drivers whoever and wherever they might be. I guess I was wrong to think that.

    So this is the type of opinion that the people who own this website think is appropriate? I thought this
    website was here to help truck drivers out, whoever and wherever they may live and drive. What is
    your opinion on minorities and other people who are not native born Americans? I would expect a more
    mature opinion from a moderator.

    So this is the opinion held by the owners of this website? I thought this website was for all
    truck drivers, whoever and wherever they live and work. a very immature statement to make.
    Do you also have a problem with minorities and women driving trucks?

    Good grief. People it was a joke. Like saying something ridiculous like nuke the whales.

    I don't condone nuking Canada or anyone else. Except maybe California.

    That was a joke too lest any Californians get upset.

    That is all, have a nice day.[emoji4]

    PackRat does in fact hate Canadians but he has a good reason.....his ex wife left him for one. She found the accent really cute.
