To say that it's a "conspiracy," we have to assume that there is some other agenda going on here--and I'm a little unconvinced. The Oil argument doesn't hold a lot of water for me. First of all, the US gets most of its Oil from Canada, believe it or not.

Believe it not. I don't think the US invaded Iraq for oil, but this comment is simply not true. Canada produces 2.6 million bbl/day, while the US imports something like 14 million bbl/day. Canada would need to produce 5 times its current levels to meet US demand. I believe we are the single biggest source, but even still account for less than 20% of US imports.
