in his words and actions, Harper IS half Canadian/half American... Mulroney acted only a quarter Canadian/the rest American to me the only issue is where is their loyalty... if I thought Dion was going to try and sell off the country to France I simply wouldn't vote for him... that said, I don't see Dion selling off the country to France... he speaks proudly and intelligently about Canada... I don't care what color his underwear are though I condede it allows fearmongers a little leverage... "Do you want a prime minister who eats Freedom Fries or do you want a prime minister who eats French Fries." "Boo" "Hisss" I guess if it comes down to is the dual citizenship going to cost him the election. If it was and he wasn't willing to cancel the French citizenship then that pretty much speaks for itself. At the same time, I would think he could bring the multi-culturalism of Canada into play and declare that we all come from somewhere and the world isn't as big as it used to be. Do we all have to fully turn our backs on our blood to pledge allegiance to a country we love. If you think about it, until we have a full blooded first nations prime minister, its all a compromise.
