Sorry it ended this way, you have a very differnt view and rememberence of what happened then I do, clearly this isn't about the exchange.
Not sure why you make mention of purchasing from an American company as you have, please know that we in the North (Canada) support you all in war and piece. My sister and brother-in -law are there now and have been since Aug 07. This isn't a Canada vs US battle, I feel the same thing would have happened if I lived across the street, all be it with a differnt out come I'm sure.
Anyway take care, sorry your not happy.
Lastly thanks to all who took the time to listen/watch this through, its been an education for me.
