Yeah, but lots of lesser countries don't really give a crap about the wealth or military might behind US foreign policy - more than one rogue state comes to mind, and even some that aren't considered 'rogue' (like Israel, for example, who will ultimately do whatever the eff they feel like when it comes down to the wire).

I can understand the economic concerns and military issues where it concerns the overall defense of NA, but I don't think you guys have to worry about us bombing Quebec or something.

Then again, you guys did once burn the White House down on basically an angry drunken bender...

The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

If you bombed Quebec...that might help our internal politics a ton.

The big difference with a lot of other countries is they don't live next door to you. Sometimes you can be a bit more rebellious when you have the comfort and security of being across the globe.


*shrug*

End of the day, there is some tension and things that we disagree on. But there are 1001 things that are awesome, that we do right, and that can't be found anywhere else in the world. And when you leave NA...(I at least) feel like a complete outsider. My southern brothers and sisters are a welcome sight and good companionship when I'm abroad.

Wouldn't trade you guys for anything.

One day the US would have tons of poor people and they'll run for the Canadian border and they'll be called snow backs . The US per capita for a Industrial country poor people sure have a ton of kids!!! When I came to the US it only had about 200 million plus, now its over 300 million.

Yeah, I really don't think we could ask for better neighbors than the Canadians. I wouldn't even particularly like it if the British were right next door...you guys are a bit more laid back than they are. This oil thing is just business, and if it's one thing the US understands, it's a business decision. I wouldn't sweat it.

Canada will not sell 100% of its oil to the US? Shocking?

Canada will try and initiate a trade war with the US? They don't have the leverage to do this. At least not the muscle to win a trade war.

If we haven't nuked Mexico by now for all the trouble it causes with drug cartels and illegal democrats, then we'd never nuke Canada.
