I posted this message in another thread but felt that I owed it to my fellow Canadians to put it on its own as well.
Thank you taking a minute to read.

I feel very deeply for all the Americans and their families that have lost someone in this terrible tragedy that affects the whole free world as well as the US. I also feel very proud of all the volunteers that are contributing to the search, the donating of blood and money, etc etc. (the list could go on and on). I, like many other people, have cried many times in the last few days just thinking about the pain and suffering that has happened and what our world is going to be like in the future. It is a scarey thought.
But I also want to make mention that Canada has also lost people in that terrible unthinkable act. There has not been near as many Canadians as Americans lost but I feel, that as a Canadian that I have to pay respect to them as well. There were two Canadians on the planes and many many more that worked in the Trade Centre. I am proud to see Canadians flying their flags at half mast(myself included) out of respect for the American losses. I also have seen many many places that are flying the American flag along side the Canadian flag. It would be great if we could see the Canadian flag along side the American one that is seen on this site in respect for the Canadians that lost their lives or family.

I hope that the future of the whole world is going to better than what we see it being at this moment.
