If some uninformed moron believes anything those idiots say, then what loss is it to us?

But if a bunch of Canadians or Canada-defenders (white knights if you will) get all up in arms about it, then that only encourages them.

Like in elementary school, ignoring the bully is the best solution.
The unfortunate thing is, more then a few Americans (that I've gotten to know down here) do in fact this take kind of stuff as fact. Kind of sad really, but when media and the masses start to propagate jokes like this, jokes start to become truths.

One of the guys here who's supposed to be among the "educated" here was surprised "Canadia" (Can-eh-dia) has a army. The fact is, Canadians have the best fighter jet pilots and snipers in the world and get the top missions for them.
