CNN - US and Canadian Relations

CNN Clips



I sent some of you this through email, but I thought I would share this with everyone else here.  All I could do was laugh at the statements found with in this video.  You have to watch it yourself.



And of course, Mr. Crossfire with a Bow Tie is in it as well.  That guy sure can make an ass out of himself.

:evil: I just don't find stuff like this funny anymore.. it just shows that even CNN is utter crap now in line with Fox.. To they have any REALLY news outlets in the US anymore.. Is comedy central REALLY the most accurate source in the US?

i dont think you can be so "general" about USA news when its more the people they pick.  Keep in mind that alot of americans think the way that some of those guests do, but im sure they have equal resentment towards their southern partners as well.



Truth be told, they do need us more then we need them and the exporting to the EU, China, Japan over the last 5-6 years has proved this.



USA taking on Canada in a war is a war the USA could never win.  With every other country they have attacked their is always some way to tell the enemy apart, be it a language or a skin color.  Taking on Canada would be taking on people who look, talk and act like them.  An endless battle.



My old boss at Techweavers thought that if given the choice and a national vote that a majority of people would vote to merge with the USA.  The guy was so pro USA war, propoganda that it was sickening.  Along with his consperacies and such really was living 50 years to late.



Im pro Canada.  We rock.

Not to mention how ineffective they are  in urban warfare. A war with the US would be an economic one for the most part, as it would be interesting to see the spread their troops across the country.

War is no longer an economic boom.  War has changed, no longer are pots/pans factories converted to make shells and bullets, no longer are millions of people at war.  The numbers are smaller and the technology is better.  War is the 21st century is very expensive.



You did bring up a good point, the terrain of Canada is so vast that it would be hard to plan the invasion.  From mountains, plains, swamps, tundra, urban, forests, arctic, water, etc.

True, but thats not what I was refering to.. I would expect it to be not so much a war with guns as a back and forth war on trade..



We turn off the oil, gass, water ect. They in turn stop shipping us goods. The stock market crashes...

I am so glad I didn't view this video while eating lunch. Ann Coulter makes me sick. She made me sick even when I considered myself a so-called "conservative". Now she's just pointlessly annoying.



And Tucker Carlson needs to find a new career that doesn't involve speaking in public.

[Zapata Prime]

Wow I don't know about you but that kind of talk always makes me a little uneasy.



I'm not saying this is all Americans but those thoughts that that b*tch is sharing are shared among a large number of Americans. Let's face it we here and see it all the time in their media and, again not to generalize, the us is very much a sheep type society. If they see it on the news enough time they start to believe it.



The main reason that they wouldn't  invade us is it would be the excuse the rest of the world is waiting for to go after them. They would have to recall all of their troops to be able to think of marching into Canada. Like Lazybones pointed out our country is huge. You can't cover that much terrain with their military. We aren't Iraq or Afghanistan. Don't forget I know many people that would be picking up whatever they could get a hold of to defend this country!



They just need to grow up. They often sound like spoiled brats. If they could tell on us to their mommies they would. That's the way I look at it.

[Lazybones]

Not to mention they would have to put all of our troops in to lockups aboard their own vessels.. How often are our troops hitching a ride.



They wouldn't be fighting our military they would be fighting civilians.
