I was in a bit of a rant.  Most of what I meant with that is the fact that 
Canada is overlooked by...  Well...  Pretty much EVERYBODY.  That's what you 
get for being the nice, quite neighbour who never declairs war or serious 
police actions or whatever ('Course, it's always the "Quiet Ones" that go 
insane one day, and kill EVERYBODY!!!).

I can understand the folks saying, "Well, it's not Western", and, of 
course...  They're right.  It's not "Western", in the way of MOVIES!!!  
Canada was VERY much roudy in it's youth!  Hense the Mounties!!!

It had pretty much the same folks around that the States did!!!  More, 
seeing as we didn't have a Civil War going on at the time!  Draft dodgers 
from the Union would FLOCK to Canada (Hey, JUST LIKE VIETNAM!!!).

My main problem isn't that they aren't putting out a Canadian Supplement...  
I'm used to that (Usually the ONLY mention Canada gets in a RPG is "Quebec 
Secceeded, and English Speaking Canada got taken over by the USA").  It's 
that they PROMISED ONE FOR SO FRIGIN' LONG, AND ARE NOW SAYING WE CAN'T HAVE 
IT!!!

Potentially.  It's not a confirmed thing yet...  And that's almost worse!!!

I hate being hauled around by the nose...

Now that I've ranted again, I apologise again...

Let's just drop it for now...  Wait 'til the official "This is what we're 
doing, and if you don't like it, tough!"-announcement comes out.

Ray.
