That is the assertion of one Robert Mcclelland who runs "My Blahg" - a fairly popular Canadian left-wing blog site. Apparently he made a comment at OliverWillis.com suggesting (perhaps a bit facetiously) that if Oliver didnt like Instapundit guru Glenn Reynold's column about how the left hates America.. he should try and dig up dirt on the guy and post it to embarass him off the net. Apparently Glenn reads that site or was tipped off to this.. and posted a comment complaining that the left were going to try and blackmail him into silence.. another reader (John Cole) then pointed out Rob was a "American-hating Canadian blogger" and that he didnt think this would play out very well in the American heartland.. to which Rob said:
As for how this will play in the heartland of America. Who gives a fuck, John. You don't hear me mewling like a baby about how your anti-Canadianism will play in the heartland of Canada, do you? No, and the reason for that is we Canadians simply don't care what an ill informed American right whinger has to say about us or anything else
I've upset Instarube
Somehow this hit a nerve down there.. because another blog called Balloon Farce (how come I've never heard of these guys before?) commented he'd never heard any rampant anti-Canadianism in his political circles.. to which Robert responded with some money quotes from Tucker Carlson, Anne Coulter, and Bill O'Reilly.. and then documented a story about how Canada's decision not to go to war in Iraq had resulted in Canadian truckers travelling in the US facing obscenities and vandalism to their truck.. as well as the WWE being forced to disguise their Canadian wrestlers either as Americans.. or playing them in the role of "bad guys" because of the rising anti-Canadianism among wrestling fans.
My Blahg then clarifies that its not just Canadians the right wing of the US hates:
This is just the tip of the iceberg and it's not just restricted to Canada. You right whingers have been spewing hatred against anyone and anything you don't like for years. Just a partial list includes France, the UN, Hollywood, liberalism, the Girl Guides and I've even encountered one of your ilk spewing vomit all over Amnesty International. Yes, Amnesty International. How filled with blind rage do you have to be to do that?
I've upset another wingnut
There is some more uh.. dramatic and dark humour dialogue that continues.. If you feel like supporting a Canadian's fight against the US right-wing blog community... please go and visit to give him some support and props:

Update [2005-2-13 21:54:38 by tribe34]:
Apparently some of the righty's read the diary section here... Robert has just quoted john Cole saying a "DailyKos denizen" was continuing this "diseased discourse" at Kos.. and stated I think this anti-Canadianism is "par for the course" - which I never did say..
