Sorry but I get annoyed at all of the biased comments on CBC and other Canadian sites.

I get annoyed sometimes with the preconceived notions that people have. We like to think that we are doing good and we are. But so many other countries are doing good also. Small countries. Finland, Iceland, Israel, Peru, Jordan, Iran, China, Korea, Venezuela, Mexico, etc. I read so many comments by Canadians that are bashing countries for not helping but they are helping. China had the first mobile medical unit on the ground of any country that wasn't already there and Haiti doesn't officially recognize China. Surgeons, osteopaths, gynecologists, they were ready. They had dogs on the scene within 48 hours sniffing out survivors. China is accustomed to disasters and they have teams ready to go immediately. The USA has to recon and then do something. I can't imagine watching my daughter have her leg amputated without anesthesia. I can't imagine me having to go through that

Chinese doctors have performed over 100 surgeries on the street and treated 100's of others. You can only do so much. USA and Canada get all the news but there are 100's of countries that are there. So if you hear someone complaing that so-and-so is not there then tell them to read the news. Everyone is there.
