Things were somewhat different in Canada, though only by a matter of degrees. We're a nation of negotiators. Unfortunately all of those negotiations resulted in so many conflicting treaties, that no one really knows what's what anymore. The way that I see it in a free nation of laws, there is no excuse for this sort of behaviour. You start burning shit? I lose any and all empathy for you.
