Reply To: What parts of The Grey Wolf resonated with you the most? Why?

What resonated with me at the time, and even moreso now are Penny’s descriptions of Canada and how precarious our position in the world is. Jean-Guy, looking at the coasters with charicatures of politicians on them. “None, that he could see, Canadian. Since Canada, as far as America’s political elite knew, did not really exist. And if it did, it was merely an inconvenient extension of their nation. A sort of annoying younger sibling that sometimes tried to assert itself but could always be put in its place.”

She issues a clear call to us Canadians to protect ourselves. How prescient was that? That vile fascist that America has apparently embraced, and none one has the gonads to stop wants my country. Yet no one American politician (or anyone else) has spoken out about this. For exactly the reasons Penny describes. We are regarded by the US as a nice place to visit, and as polite people but there is no respect for us.

I could go on, but I won’t. I’m waiting for someone to grow a pair and speak up against this insane president and his puppetmasters.
