In response to the blatantly protectionist "Buy American" clause in the US stimulus package, I encourage all Canadians to boycott American IdP/OPs in favour of local alternatives.
They can have their steel, there is more margin in identity infrastructure.
Canada was smart enough to build in rules to protect their domestic sales and products. Wal-mart in Canada is mandated to sell 80% domestic and 20% imported goods. Wal-marts in the US typically sell 80% imported and 20% domestic goods. (And that's a lot of Wal-marts!) American's should support Canadian goods for a stronger North American economy - It's good for all of us... Also, If you've tried to buy American you know - IT'S NOT EASY. It should be 'Produce American' so that we can THEN 'Buy American'...anyhow
