Actually, Canadians are sheep, sheople as I would prefer to call them. They sit in little insulated houses, with little insulated lives, thier insulated bank accounts and their little worthless media fed opinions. They are generally politically correct, fear confrontation and are a mix of bleeding hearts and a**holes, to coin Frank Zappa's words. Most Canadians don't know what the real world is all about, they watch it from their living room seats and if something appears too traumatic, they simply turn the channel and make a mental note to throw some money at whatever charitable cause suits them to appease their conscience. Funny too, most of them believe in gun control to insure that only the criminals have guns, like the politician's henchmen.

Now, ya wee wankers, I am a Canadian, born in Toronto, have a history here that goes back to the 1600's and I have operated on three continents, involved on five borders in active campaigns, been shot once, poisoned once, died once and had three other attempts on my life, in one case involving 250 other passengers (I don't fly if I can help it). I have seen the world, worked in a lot more than just Canada for years at a time (when in Rome eh) and I have worked with the scum in the military, politics and banks, and the brilliant in universities and research institutions. I keep up on world affairs daily and I don't turn away. I have watched terrorists die and countries fall. I have a certain amount of experience in gauging people.
Sorry if this turned into a rant.... but wake up people, time is short.

Don't lable all canadians as "sheep", just because that is what you have chosen to observe in your neck of the woods.
I am on the west coast, and most people out here are pretty much awake, NOT "sheep" and definatly not of the mentality you just described.

London — GlaxoSmithKline PLC , the world's second largest drug maker by revenue, posted Wednesday an 11-per-cent rise in third quarter earnings on the back of strong sales of the flu drug Relenza and forecast an even bigger boost from its swine flu vaccines in the final quarter of the year.

On the topic of the lineups, how much importance do parents of small children and pregnant women place on their offspring? A little... a lot?
The lineups are a result of 6 months of fear mongering on the news reports of every television channel, every radio channel and each and every newspaper. The upshot of these reports is that those most at risk are the very young. No wonder parents are shuffling their kids off to the clinics.
What responsible parent would not err on the side of caution just as the school year has started? I don't blame them at all.
