Discrimination

Why is it that all the major scrapbooking contests are only for residents of the US and Canada? Oh, but let's not forget to exclude Quebec, last time I looked (and was living in Canada) Quebec was still part of Canada (we know they don't want to be


- but they are!).

Don't they value a LO for the LO itself, never mind if a different language is used? Don't countries outside of the States and Canada contribute to keeping the scrapbooking market in the US going? Don't we for the most part have to import all our products from the US? Can't they acknowledge the world wide spread of scrapbooking and open up their doors for all countries? Or is it because if they do that they will have to accept that there are some amazing scrapbookers out there that aren't American - and you know what? They are pretty darn good, even better sometimes


!

OK, off my soap box now. And no, before anyone asks, I am not anti-American, just anti-exclusion.
