did they quarentine the whole plane too.?  i think not. And you are incorrect,
at best what it shows is that it can come to our shores but that an attempt
will be made to quarantine it. Just wait till the reporters start coming back.

and btw, the above seems like a good cover story to prevent panic in canada.
After all the canadians are used to the government doing whats best for them.

If we can not trust a freeman with his right to keep and 
bear arms, then how can we trust him with the right to 
vote. Surely the right of a freeman to vote has a much 
greater effect on our collective lives than does any 
individual's firearm. If one argues that the effect of any 
one freeman's vote is minimal, then why allow it in the 
first place?  To be armed is to secure one's right to 
representation.
