Dick Cheney says Canada too dangerous to visit
Remember Dick Cheney? Sulfurous creature and architect of the Iraq war, is afraid to visit our northern neighbor. I guess I don’t blame him for that, because the Canadians, unlike the Americans, really give a shit about bad guys hanging around their country.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney has foregone a trip to Canada on the grounds that it’s “too dangerous,” according to a report in Canada’s National Post.
Cheney was set to appear at an event in Toronto on April 24, but canceled on grounds that the risk of trouble from protesters was too great.
Cheney’s last Canadian appearance in September of 2011 erupted in violence as protesters swarmed the entrance of the private Vancouver club where the former Bush administration official and Iraq War architect was speaking. The protesters rained down verbal abuse on attendees and, in once instance, choked a security guard.
Vice President Cheney was trapped inside the venue for more than seven hours as police in riot gear attempted to disperse the crowd and quell to the resulting melee.
Ryan Riggins, a spokesperson for the promotions company who booked Cheney for the April 24 appearance said, “He felt that in Canada the risk of violent protest was simply too high.”

As a 63 year old Canadian I had to laugh at what Cheney had to say about Canada ! I follow American politics more than I do Canadian politics because America,”You are so looney.” I don’t mean to insult our $1.00 coin either. America is full of extremism whether it’s politics, religion, crime,sex, you name it! That’s what makes America so interesting and an easy target to make fun of. I could go on but right now I have to stop myself from pissing my pants having read your article. Gotta luv the Americans, they just make the world go ’round until it’s ready to fall off the edge of the universe. LOL
I agree Rick. I would make a good Canadian but I hate cold weather.
Haven’t you heard? Global warming will affect Canada first! Or are you not young enough to benefit? LOL
I can think of a lot of reasons not to go to Canada. The people, the people, and lets see>>>>oh yeah the people. No cares what Canada thinks about anything. Please name one world altering idea that has come from Canada. Except for Hockey and Dudley DooRight name any relevant world news having anything to do with Canada. Its the vanilla of countries. Their brightest color is tan. People know more about Greece than they know about Canada.
I think it will be refreshing to be in a country that isn’t full of itself, puffed up with self-importance. A country that doesn’t think its own shit don’t stink.
