By the way, I know my last post was completely distasteful and I truly dont mean to offend anyone, but I could not think of any way the US would want to invade us.
It was meant as a satire and not meant to be taken seriously.

I am not in favour of sending our troops to Afghanistan, Iraq or any other countries. I wouldn't go to those wars if I am still young and a military personnel. But it is different when someone tries to invade our country. I won't hesitate or even think about fighting back.

But we all know the American government/military are not dumb enough to even try to invade Canada so I wouldn't worry about it this time.

You know the Canadian military may be a bit of a running joke but I look at it differently. We have had no real reason to fight lately as nothing affects us directly. Sure some things are close to home but not in the home.
If something like 9\11 were to happen to Canada you can bet the war in Afghanistan would be over by now.

I look at Canada like the Hulk. We are mild mannered Bruce Banner who just keeps to his own, maybe he goes out to the bar every now and then with his girlfriend to let loose and have a drink or two.
Maybe at the bar a couple goofs start pushing someone around, Canada steps in and tells them to back off. The bullies push him away and tell him to mind his own business. Canada goes back and tells them again to back off and this time they shove him down at the same time they knock over Canadas girlfriend. The bullies start laughing and high fiving each other when they hear a low growl coming from behind them.
They turn around not knowing where it is coming from but they know they crossed the line. The growling gets louder and then they see Canada stand up glaring at them. All of a sudden Canadas eyes glow bright red and one of the bullies soils themselves. Canada get bigger and angrier and before the bullies can run Canada jumps on them and beats them within an inch of their lives. As the bullies run away as fast as they can the US comes in and kicks one in the butt as they run, then proceeds to cheer and hoot and holler that they scared them away.
Canada turns around, helps up his girlfriend and walks out the back door.

Never tick off Canada, the world knows this and this is the reason why nobody messes with us.

You are right, Canada did give up on Alaska too easily. Its likely that the government of the time already had its hands full with the Yukon and Northwest Terroritories.

I'd buy a case of whiskey, move all rifles and ammo on to the roof of my house, don a cutoff tee shirt with a Canadian flag that reveals my stomach, and wait on my roof.

Then, when the first wave of Americans approaches, I'd lock and load and yell out...

"Dey turk errr jobs!" ka-BOOM!

*rifleman esque reload*

"Dey turk errr jobs!" ka-BOOM!

*shell casings flying*

"DEYDUKADURR!!!" ka-BOOM!

*fade out to a image of a Canadian flag proudly flying in the wind*

Fin.

I think the US beer industry got it wrong a long time ago when they decided to label some of their water as beer.

And anyone who thinks that Miller, Bud, Sam Adams (sparkling water), Michelob or Coors are better than Molson, Keiths, Rickards, Sleemans, Labatt and Moosehead really has poor taste in beer.

Miller is better than Molson. Hands down. Why anyone would drink that swill and still consider themselves superior to America is beyond me.

Besides the US has a microbrew industry which puts us Canadian wanna-be beer drinkers to shame.

Personally, I love how we're discussing the invasion of Canada by the American's yet, we're punctuating it with an argument on who has the better beer and why. Personally, THAT'S why I love Canada.

I'd do something practical, like strapping a bomb to my chest and blowing up random men, women and children....
