Now you done gone challenged me, EvilDave
You Canadians have no standing army. You can\'t send troops to help anyone.
You let terrorist\'s enter our country through your borders.
You bash the one country that will defend your country, the one country that patrols your sea lanes with our coast guard, the one country that will send you millions in aid should you need it.
1. We HAVE an army. Canada has a small population, so it never was or will be the size of an Armada but we have an army. More importantly, that \"small\" army helped Britian and France turn the tide of both
World War 1and
World War 2 before America even got involved with either one.
2. You weren\'t taught any history or current events outside your country, were you? It was a Canadian Prime minister who started the U.N. Peace Keeping forces. The Canadian Millitary you think we don\'t have has been involved with the U.N. Peacekeeprs since they even began and Canadian Soldiers have been in Cyprus, Somalia, the Balkans, Israel, Haiti and
Rwanda. Where were the American forces in Rwanda? We even fought alongside American forces in the first Persian Gulf War and more recently in Afghanistan after September 11.
3. Letting terrorists in your borders, this is rich, considering: the terrorists responsible for the attacks on September 11th had their training camp in Florida, not exactly on the border to Canada, Dave. Speaking of which, I might misunderstand Customs procedure but it seems to me it\'s
YOUR border as well and that it\'s
YOUR Customs agents that stop and check everyone from Canada entering the U.S. We do not
LET terrorists enter our country anymore than you
LET them past
YOUR Customs. :moon:
4. And by the way,
here\'s an atlas of North America, E-Dave. Only ONE country is in any position to invade Canada, can you tell me which one? Russia would have to cross the North Pole, then Alaska and the Territories, and that\'s going the easy way, otherwise they\'d have to go through either western Europe or China. China\'s millitary is designed for repelling invasions and the U.K. think we\'re still their colony. There is only one probable invader and it isn\'t Denmark.
Finally, I do NOT BASH America. I won\'t say I never did cuz anyone who can say they never bashed America in their life never knew it existed, your fellow Americans included. But I never burned an American Flag, assaulted an American or called their country the Devil. I got just as upset, scared and angry as any american when the four Hurricanes hit the coast and when every terrorist attack against the U.S. in the last twenty years from the first attack on the WTC to Waco and Oklahoma to 9/11 occured.
But then what the hell would I know, I\'m one of those shifty Canuks that\' hiding Osama Bin Laden in the basement of my igloo right next to all the Marajuanna I\'m growing to smuggle into the U.S. after we all have oujr gay weddings. Do yourself a favor and quit watching Fox News.
