本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛以前有人曾问可否有类似的英语本地的论坛,想了解他们在关心什么,实际上大多地区也有,主要的形式大概是email或MSN转发,在办公室里大约热点的帖子要达到2000多次转发,有的要达到5000多次,其中有的还要在办公楼内的局域网内转发
例如记得有一次号召一天不加油,抵制高价,转发5500多次,加上公司内部转发
应该达到3万人以上。我翻译的这个小文章来自MSN,转发,大概是属于热点了。
开始我感到奇怪的是,我们的IT经理转发给我们大家的,他大概从来也没有发过
这种内容,以免大家无限制的上网。
没有人支持战争,但这次是恐怖分子向全世界宣战,加拿大别无选择,只得迎战
阿富汗没有石油,没有财富,加拿大出兵仅仅是为了保卫自己,支持正义,那些
机场的士兵是为了加拿大人民去战斗,我们是移民,不可能参与国策和出征,但
至少还应该有主持正义的勇气和看法。在机场发生的故事放映了真实的加拿大的
人民,这种文化和观念保证了不会出现几百人围观一个落水的妇女而见死不救的
现象出现。我基本上照原文翻译,仅仅改动了几个字,水平不高,请大家指教
