How about we stop giving everyone our support and worry about our own problems first?? My tuition bill is $16,000 per year. Our state is proposing a 50% higher education cut while Obama is focusing on a better education. So would you like to pick up the 50% loss to help OUR OWN country grow and succeed?

If you don't see eye to eye with helping that's totally cool. To each their own...

Yea I understand, I was just stating that I think it is a bit ridiculous. We are too busy being a superhero while we watch our country die slowly. We educate the foreign then they return to their country to make them better. We send support to different countries who are already collecting profit for goods, still, nothing in return. We send donations and aide to struggling countries, nothing in return. How about Katrina, how many helped us compared to the help we provided them? It's all bogus and quite embarrassing. I am all for helping others out, but sometimes you just don't have enough helping hands to go around.

It's good that it's a Canadian offering her helping hand and asking other Canadians in the 'Canada' forum.

AGThing1227 - I understand what you are saying but know that when that stuff happened in Katrina my work and I did a lot of events to raise money and I know friends who did raise money through events, so we did help however we could. Guess it's just the way we are

Dude.. a Canadian fellow posted a Canadian meet/charity show in a Canadian forum, and you, obviously not a Canadian judging by your location, have to come in and drop a bomb about your tuition bill and cry about how bad Obama has butt-hurt you...

As I stated, it was in the new post section. I give to domestic charities myself so I am not looking down upon the idea of giving. I just simply do not understand how the US can act as this almighty superhero yet have many issues ourselves. Canada, I am not sure about you guys. Giving is great, as long as everything else is ok. More power to you.

We all have our opinions on things and are not always going to agree, that's the way life goes.

Anyhow if anyone is interesting in coming out to this show/meet hope you can thanks and enjoy your day!

wahhh, suck it up or move to Canada where they take care of post of your education fees.

Guys from the US always invading the Canadian forum and price matching with their US pricing pisses me off. Both here and on my350. Get out of this section, you're ignorant and misinformed.

Again..I was in the New Post Section, not lurking around the Canadian Section. It was my fault for not looking at where the thread was located at. There are a couple Richmond Hills here in the US. Therefore I assumed it was a US thread. Remember, this is a public forum and we are all human, you and I both make mistakes. I have been on here since 06 and have seen you post over the years, we all make mistakes...There were no price matching because a) there is no price to match with $16,000 and b) I was under the impression that this was a US forum (Due to Richmond Hills). Now if I purposely posted in the Canadian Section "price matching", then you would have a valid argument. Your post just added to beating a dead horse because I already stated I made the mistake of confusing this with the US. I had nothing bad to say about the OP, Canada or anyone else. I simply stated my concern. I am neither ignorant nor misinformed, except for the fact that I made the mistake of assuming the OP's Richmond Hill's was in fact the US Richmond Hill's. Have a good day sir
