What follows is the full text of his <trenchant remarks as printed in the Congressional < <Record: <"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the <Americans as the most generous and possibly the least <appreciated people on all the earth. < <Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and <Italy were lifted out of the debris of war by the <Americans who poured in billions of dollars and <forgave other billions in debts. None of these <countries is today paying even the interest on its <remaining debts to the United States. < <When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, <it was the Americans who propped it up, and their <reward was to be insulted and swindled on the streets <of Paris. I was there. I saw it. < <When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the <United States that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 <American communities were flattened by tornadoes. <Nobody helped. < <The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped <billions of dollars into discouraged countries. Now <newspapers in those countries are writing about the <decadent, warmongering Americans. < <I'd like to see just one of those countries that <is gloating over the erosion of the United States <dollar build its own airplane. Does any other country <in the world have a plane to equal the Boeing Jumbo <Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10? <If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the <International lines except Russia fly American Planes? < <Why does no other land on earth even consider putting <a man or woman on the moon? You talk about Japanese <technocracy, and you get radios. You talk about German <technocracy, and you get automobiles. <You talk about American technocracy, and you find <men on the moon - not once, but several times - <and safely home again. < <You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs <right in the store window for everybody to look at . <Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. <They are here on our streets, and most of them, unless <they are breaking Canadian laws, are getting American <dollars from ma and pa at home to spend here. < <When the railways of France, Germany and India <were breaking down through age, it was the Americans <who rebuilt them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and <the New York Central went broke, nobody loaned them an <old caboose. Both are still broke. < <I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced <to the help of other people in trouble. Can you name <me even one time when someone else raced to the <Americans in trouble? I don't think there was outside <help even during the San Francisco earthquake. < <Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one <Canadian who is damned tired of hearing them get <kicked around. They will come out of this thing with <their flag high. And when they do, they are entitled <to thumb their nose at the lands that are gloating <over their present troubles. I hope Canada is not one of <those." < < < < <This is one of the best editorials that I have ever <read regarding the United States. It is nice that <one man realizes it. I only wish that the rest of the <world would realize it. We are always blamed for <everything, and never even get a thank you for the <things we do. < <I would hope that each of you would send this to <as many people as you can and emphasize that they <should send it to as many of their friends until this <letter is sent to every person on the web. I am just a <single American that has read this, I SURE HOPE <THAT A LOT MORE READ IT SOON. < < <God Bless America, < <Michael A. < _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
