We could also go take that water if need be.............
Somehow I don't think that'd be well received by the other members of NATO, Russia and China either so... you could but you won't because it would be a disaster for all involved.. Plus you do realize Canada has stockpiles of all kinds of nasty things right...

Part of that bad PR is because for the last few decades we really haven't been doing that much "good". WWII was the last (and maybe ONLY) time we were clearly being the good guys and not merely following our national interests. Well, Korea might count too.
For the most part though, most of our military adventures were not really "just for good" - not Vietnam, not Panama, certainly not Iraq.
I should also point out that in nearly all the wars we've fought, Canadians have been at our side (not in big numbers to be sure - but they've almost always been there) including Afganistan and both Gulf Wars. Though their numbers are small, Canada has almost always stood by America - not only that, but in the most obvious confrontation of good vs evil (ie WW II) Canada was FAR quicker to respond than the US was. We literally were forced into that war - even though it was pretty clear the enemies were REALLY BAD.
Coors............not the light........is good beer. I used to work for a distributor years ago. My old man's fav beer too for some reason still.
You're gonna love this; my favourite is Yuenglings Origional. I can't get it by crossing into Michigan but have it brought up for me by friends who visit. I try to make friends of those who own pick-up trucks.
When in Florida for the winter a case of 24 costs me $17 at Sam's Club while a case of anything up here in Ontario is pushing $60. Sheeesh. I'm gonna start distilling that dang syrup.
All Canadian cities would be a pile of ruble in the first day.
In any case, you're going to have to borrow money to reduce us to a pile of "ruble", and we won't lend you any more.
You're clearly not very good with money.
You're speaking in absolute terms instead of relative terms... For the average joe blow relative terms are far more important than absolute.
Canada's population is 35 million with a GDP of 1.85 Trillion
California's is 38 million with a GDP of 2.0 Trillion
They are remarkable the same and that is the case in general between the U.S and Canada. The main difference is that for the average joe in Canada, the value of his real estate is higher than the average joe in the U.S -hence a 'slightly' richer middle class.
Both countries invest heavily in one another.. Again in absolute terms the U.S invests more but there are 10:1 Americans to Canadians so that stands to reason.
No doubt. Canada is a great country, annoying to me at times but really, all BS aside how can you not respect that country? The US and Canada have had a great, cooperative relationship for a long time no matter what some of us boneheads say on this forum just to pass the time.
Loved the movie Canadian Bacon, love hockey, HATE to see Canadian teams move to the US, absolutely LOVED Trailer Park Boys.
