I see the CBC is re-airing a documentary they ran last year. In case you haven't seen it, its a documentary on the "American Military Complex" in the words of Dwight Eisenhower. In other words it shows how the US gears corporate america towards support of the military. Or do I have it the other way around? Take the time to watch it next Sunday night on CBC and decide for yourself. Its a must see. Sunday Jan 13th.

Why would Canadians be interested in this? Its not as if we'd ever attack you. We love our Northern neighbors.

I've often wondered, what would happen if the U.S. ignored the middle east, just took over Canada, and mined the crap out of the tar sands. One statistic I once read said that the tar sands had as much to give as all of the PROVEN reserves in Saudi-Arabia.
It's not like it would be tough for them to take over Canada. We seem unprepared, and I don't think there's been a government in power for decades that would be able to raise an army even if the time permitted to do so.
Also, ever heard of "war plan Red"? That was the U.S. plan for how they would invade Canada. It was drafted before WWII and I believe it was on the books until the 70s. It sounded quite plausible too if the wanted.

They already have that. It was taken years ago in the "free" trade agreement.

Canadian water tastes funny. Oil will be the #1 reason we send troops to freeze their butts off up there.
Besides, you Canadians aren't so innocent either.

But don't fret, our dollar will be so low by then, Canada can buy all of our surplused cold-war ICBM's and actually be a threat to us.

Right again. You're onto our latest plan. We're secretly ruining your economy and turning the world against you so that we can takeover and have a better climate. Don't mess with anyone that builds houses out of ice and goes without Sun for months at a time.

I figure bubba zanetti provided me with a clue, Flin Flon, of course, were talking snow blowers again, no, wait a minute he's mentioned Bobby Clarke, this Dubya guys a hockey player, must be an eastern conference joke, ya that's it.
Oh $hit it's freakin George W, now I get it.
