( Immigration web site flooded with queries from U.S. anti-Bush visitors )
Reminds me of a discussion on an L&O board around the time Ontario just legalized gay marriage. One guy said something like, "Yeah, good for you, you idiots. You're gonna get flooded with pot-smoking faggots and peaceniks before you know it."

CirNote: 100% true for poutine, but I can't believe they left out Canada's #1 source of vitamins, minerals, and joy: beer.
