        Why don't they just carpet-bomb every forest in Canada and be done with it?

            Yes, actually.

                What a sh!tty article. It didn't even say who the Senators were, where they were from, and their party affiliation.
                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                  It's the hallmark of Canadian journalism.

                    What do you expect? That is the organisation which helped lead the charge against one of our past PMs. They floated story after story about a scandal based on a book that was based on lies. Finally, the RCMP investigated and guess what? The politician successfully sued the government of Canada for the botched job they did. Turned out there never was any evidence of wrong doing by the PM.

                        "I can only conclude that he had no intelligence that this action was coming forward from the U.S. Congress," he said.
                        I'm sure this isn't the first time that the phrases "no intelligence" and "US congress" have come together.

                            The funniest part is that the US complains when Canadian mills get their operating costs down and still remain competitive despite a 24% tariff.

                            In any case, this keeps my dad busy, upgrading antiquated American mills to near-Canadian standards.

                              "Most of them die on the (order) paper," he said from Montreal. "There's nothing we should really worry about except if we take it seriously. Then it will have achieved its purpose."

                              This is true. This language can be tucked into other bills, though.
