Please don't make nationality an issue on this forum. You've mentioned his "Canadian buddies" now in several threads and frankly, I don't see what anyone's nationality has to do with anything. If you can't make an argument on its own merits, I'd suggest dragging nationality in is a pretty cheap stunt. There are plenty of Canadians not getting involved on this one, and I can assure you there is no Canadian conspiracy to disrupt the forum, unless you wish to prove otherwise.
There's nothing wrong with some friendly rivalry or banter (I won't mention your worthless Yankee pesos if you don't
) but I'd frankly rather not be lumped into
any contentious debate simply because of where I was born or where I live. Substitute "Jew" for Canadian, and there would be calls for your head, and rightly so.
You're doing fine by sticking to the facts and pinning him with specific questions; don't blow it now.
