This kind of stems from the N. Korea crisis today. I'm no political guru... by any means, but I was having a conversation with some people around the office about this.

With the US being tied up in Iraq, and the economy sputtering, it seems entirely possible that China is the next big power. In fact, lets be honest... they are already a massive, massive force.

How long until the US just doesnt have the power to be the "World Police", and another country, starved for resources, comes knocking on Canada's door?
