    There are a few Canadian citizens stuck in Gaza and very much in danger. I’m hoping that some solution can be found to help these people out.

      Are you trying to say that the Canadian citizens stuck in Gaza are somehow more special than the other citizens?

        Yes! At least they are to me as a Canadian citizen. Not more important in human terms, but definitely more of interest to me to see how Canadians in a war zone are dealt with by our government.

          I think that is a fair answer. As an American, I care more about the Americans in all this because we have something in common. It’s how we work as people. It doesn’t mean I don’t care about others but my interest leans towards Americans.

            As an American, I am also concerned about the Canadians in danger. I think of Canada as Americas brother that just happens to have its shit a bit more together.
