No, not really. There's many other reasons to not like Bush

My SoCal blog buddy, The Window Manager, posted a possible reason for why Canadians dislike U.S. president Bush so much: lower unemployment in the U.S. than in Canada. Maybe; maybe not. Even if it were, it looks like it could be short-lived. At least if you look at the subtext of these items: (1) from CNET news (via G&M): U.S. call centre jobs moving to Canada and (2) lest we think that employment rates are holistic functions unaffected by other larger factors, from the G&M a story covering the U.S. Commerce Department's latest report: U.S. economy slows. Gotta look for another reason, I think.

Well, if it isn't because we have more jobs, maybe because our women are more beautiful? ;-)

I *will* concede that youse guys up there make far better beers, except for Sam Adams, which is my daily quaff.
