Meadow lake is a small town. Ive been there, I know people who live there. Small towns like that living in Northern Saskatchewan don't have alot of money. Saskatchewan, and Canada has already donated MUCH much more per capita than the United States has.

And D3V, why are you reading CBC news? I thought you hated everyone outside your borders.
This was the point I was trying to make. The actions of a small town are nothing compared to the actions of the nation as a whole. It's not like this is all the money Canada has donated. Look heres a quote:

"Canadians in huge numbers have joined what has turned into an unprecedented outpouring of help for the survivors of the Asian tsunami.

In addition to the federal commitment of $425 million in help, other levels of government, businesses and non-governmental organizations have announced donations of millions more.

Individual Canadians have also dug deep. A preliminary tally shows that Canadians donated at least $137 million for tsunami relief to 21 eligible Canadian aid organizations as of Jan. 11. The Canadian Red Cross attracted $99 million of that. The federal government is matching dollar-for-dollar all individual tsunami donations made by Canadians by Jan. 11, up to $150 million."

This is already far more than the US government pledged. So shut the hell up.
