We're Canadian, were your friend and neighbor and we need to support each other in this global economic crisis.

Thank you for reminding us of our relative positions as neighbors and friends. I value that relationship.
Some time ago I was getting into my Buick and a gentleman approached me and said "Nice car". I thanked him for his comment and he added "I made it". The ensuing discussion revealed he was a visiting Canadian auto worker. I had supported his economy and now he was down here supporting ours.
