    Yup, the rot has already set in, better amputate before it's too late.

    Had to look at that for a second, hilarious.

    For a moment I was thinking I don't remember Ontario heading that far South....

    The Mackenzie Brothers, Bob and Doug, icons of the mockery of the CanCon laws from the early days, where a certain amount of Canadian Content had to be present in each program, and SCTV filled it with Bob and Doug to thumb their noses at the CRTC.

    The movie Strange Brew, the castle scene, was filmed down the street from where I live at the Harris Water Filtration Plant, the scene of many evil castles and prison scene's in many films...

    Rambo First Blood was shot in Hope BC during the winter time.

    With all of this wonderful cross border cooperation with films and such. I don't think that a 'wall' is needed. Hell it'd just show up in a film!!!

    Did not know Rambo was shot in BC, cool. So was MaGyver I believe. Which I also loved.
    And unless it's for the largest game of squash ever played, I agree, no wall required. Kind of proud of the largest undefended border in the world..We share that title and should defend our need for no defence, if ya get me.

    On a separate, but relevant note recall this day in 1939 and remind yourselves why, when it all goes for crap, we share a commonality that goes beyond hockey, coffee, taxes and beer..

    Cheers gents.

    I had the pleasure and honor in 1977 of meeting Henry Fonda when they filmed part of the movie, "Home to Stay" down at the Beach in Toronto, I knew enough from my Dad and having watched Battle of Midway to say I liked it, he seemed somewhat pleased that I'd seen it being a kid and all, I then asked him for an autograph (I was 13 or 14) and he took my piece of paper, and when I told him my name was, "Andrew" he said, "I thought you wanted my name...." and gave me my piece of paper back...I laughed and then said sorry and he signed it...probably lost it by the time I got home.

    You send us more Henry Fonda types, and we'll stop sending you the Bieber types....

    At one point in time there was a 'wall' but that was many a year ago. I hope that this monument will stand until the end of time.
