Well, I'm not going to speak for all Canadians, but I think it's rather bizarre that despite all the deceptions of the Bush administration they "win" another election. The consequences of him winning might very well be lasting (and not in the good way). So, if you guys want to move up here - the more the merrier. Then we all can bitch about how inept the Canadian government is

Kerry was the draft guy. I don't understand why it got put on Bush.
Bush: "Military is right size"
Kerry: "We need a larger army"
Republicans: "No draft"
Democrats (Led by a prominant black House Democrat): "Here a bill authorizing a draft"
Good thing I voted for Bush. I definately oppose a new draft.

We simply haven't the population. If the US occupied Canada no one would complain. We'd invite you in for tea. Really... silly thread.
The U.S. tried once and failed
Yeah, but our soldiers a much better at marching in step and have uniforms and more cannons then we had back then. Also, the Redcoats aren't likely to stop us like they did before. They are much further away and our navy is a bit better then it was back then.
I'm from Ohio. Yes we could take Canada, but what would be the point? If Ohio took Canada we'd have nowhere to buy our prescription drugs. Also we'd have to close Casino Windsor. Fishing trips to Canada are much more fun then fishing trips to Ohio. All those Canadians talk funny. Where would we get all of our good internet porn? Romania, I don't think so. And its cold up there. Sure its cold in Ohio, but not Canadian cold. Plus its nice to be able to look at Lake Erie and think "Gee, we could conquer the people on the other side." Makes us feel strong. If we owned Canada, Ohio would lose that feeling. We'd be forced to think bad things about Indiana. Thats not good for national unity. And its ham, not "canadian bacon", if you can't get that how do you ever expect to understand Ohio's unconstitutional school funding laws? Just changing the sign to miles instead of kilometers would cost a fortune. And have you seen Canada. Its one big ass country. Does Ohio really need to become the largest state? I don't think so. And don't get me started on the French-Candians...as if being Candian wasn't bad enough. Where would our cowards hide from military service if the Democrats bring back the draft? Where would we get our weed? And the terrorists, they'd be stuck sneaking across the Mexican border.
(Please note: most of the above is done in jest. I greatly admire the Canadian people, who have proven themselves noble allies, brave soldiers, fine craftsmen, and ok hockey players. And I like the French Canadians much more then I like the French. Viva Quebecois, I think North America could use another country. Our current disagreements aside, we are better friends then enemies. But it is ham, not bacon.)

If the French Canadians are only half as bad as the real French, does that mean the French Canadians will only half surrender?

Seems the Americans are already coming here to take all the influenza shots. A permanent stay may just as well happen.
If someone who could be useful to Canadian society would like to move here, then I have no complaints. Just no lay-abouts or the what-not.

Really? Ive read much on World History, and I've never heard of this. How long did it last? The Dark ages usually refers to a period of 500-700 years after the fall of the Roman Empire.
It's a very new theory based on research some guy looking at tree rings discovered. He found that there was a short period in the Dark Ages where winter conditions lasted for a few years. Crops were bad, life sucked... it was ragnarock! Well, maybe not. ;p

I tried to find it, but I couldnt seem to find what Bill Mahar did (or said) that got him fired. Can you help me out?
Bill lost his whole TV show when he made comments about the 9/11 highjackers being brave, if crazy. His was prolly the best known instance of the media falling over itself to please it's corporate masters who, in turn, are Bushites (as all corporations are).

How safe is Canada? Let's see:
Proven Oil Reserves (in Billion barrels)
Iraq = 113.8
Iran = 94.3
Venezuela = 63.9
Lybia = 29.7
Nigeria = 27.0
Canada = 5.1
Looks pretty safe for the time being.
(Yes. I am just kidding.)

Was this on broadcast? cable? Ive only been able to gleen bits and pieces from the sites that I have read, but it seems to point more to advertising being pulled than Bush's influence in corporate America (which, I agree with you, is trully Bush Country).
Surely, you can see that this is not a popular position to be taken.....
They didnt call it the dark ages because it was dark.

Yeah..I did recall those Canucks actually beating the US in some little border war...I think the USA was busy with Mexico at the time and the Canadians started kickin once the US tried to expand further north....not sure when it happened but it's some war you'll find Canadians rubbing in the faces of the US from time to time
As for Oil and Energy...I didn't always think Kerry was great but himslef and Edwards were a hundred times better than Bush and Cheney ( Mr Apartheid ).
One thing they stood well on was Energy independance...Some nations are looking into Solar, Tidal and Wind power
Iceland almost totally powered by Volcanic vents were the internal neat from the Earth heats up luquid to steam which then create electricity or warm up homes
France gets the majority of its power from Nuclear stations..
..I know many of you aren't so happy about Nuclear power but its much better than a couple of fat-cat Arabs selling the US a few barrels and then with the money giving funding to terror groups...the amount of bloodsheed in this part of the world is dreadful
Anyway all those barrels are expected to run dry in the next decade so the USA should start thinking about Energy independence sooner rather than later
