WASHINGTON, D.C. - WASHINGTON, D.C. — Phew!

The U.S. and Mexico aren't scheming to invade Canada, according to U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland.

On Wednesday, she thrice denied that a closed-door meeting between Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Mexico's foreign minister was to plot a takeover of Canada.

"This isn't some secret thing to invade Canada or something like that?" a reporter asked Nuland during a press briefing about why a signing ceremony between the two countries wasn't open to the press.

"No, no, no," Nuland replied. "It's not anything classified."

That's a relief.

[texson66]

IF they deny it, then I’m thinking there might be some truth in it. (Let’s let Holder and Obama be point men)

[Squawk 8888]

When the current administration denies it it's time for us to worry.

Canada Ping!

[JRandomFreeper]

Short someone a warehouse full of maple syrup... and you just might lose your pretty little country...

[Squawk 8888]

Bring it on

[bmwcyle]

We are going to take the beer. Then we are going home.

It is my understanding that the US military has strategic plans on how to conquer any territory, including their allies.

It’s more of a war strategic game than anything else. For preparation of an uncertain future. It’s not a real plan, in the sense that they are really planning on carrying it out at the moment.

It’s along the same line of thinking, when the Pentagon analyzes how many nukes they really need to flatten the world.

[Billthedrill]

Cool. I got dibs on Banff. BTT.

[JRandomFreeper]

Labatt? When I have Shiner Bock available? Fergetit. The invasion is off.

[JRandomFreeper]

I know it is a Michael Moore but I think it is a funny movie because of the cast. I despise M. Moore.

[The Sons of Liberty]

I’m much more worried about plans to takeover states and fight American citizens within the US, than any plan to invade Canada.

[Baseballguy]

Well I have been in Ont. several times and I can tell you there is nothing stopping us to take em over. Them hosers drive 60km/hour. I can run faster than that.

[South Dakota]

Strange brew...i have that movie. I miss Moranis

Meanwhile, in a little town in Upstate New York ...

Dog River is my kind of town.

I saw we send the SEALS in early to seize the Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve.

[Brilliant]

Why would Mexico invade Canada when they can invade the US, and we will not resist?

[Kolath]

Canada has upgraded their ballistas to now lob curling stones.

Send in Omega Force!

We've already invaded Canada. Several times, during the War of 1812.

The Americans were able to beat the British on American soil, but the Canadians beat us on theirs. Rather handily.

[HereInTheHeartland]

As long as they get the maple syrup!

[cripplecreek]

Remember the River Raisin!

We've already invaded Canada. Several times, during the War of 1812.

The Americans were able to beat the British on American soil, but the Canadians beat us on theirs. Rather handily.

Actully, the primary reason that we won that war - and we did win it - was our victory on Canadian soil at Moraviantown in 1813, where we achieved the most decisive milestone of the land war.

We, the United States, killed Tecumseh there.

After that, the continued American sovereignty over the Northwest Territory and the Louisiana Purchase was assured. Only Tecumseh, the greatest Native American War leader/statesman ever to live, could have prevented it.

"This isn't some secret thing to invade Canada or something like that?"

My brother's closely involved in this operation and the invasion is on.For years we've been fed up to the gills with their maple syrup,hockey pucks and refusal to pronounce "aboot" correctly.

[One Name]

Cat’s out of the bag, eh?

We crave your walleye, beer and clear water.

I’m fond of the milk in a plastic bag deal, too.

I’d like to see Canada Tire move south and add firearms to their SKU’s.

But, the cigarettes have to go, and those ministry dudes in the floating planes who drop in on you and squeeze the fishes tails to a gnat’s ass in order to write a citation get old real quick.

You can keep the no-see-ums too!

[headsonpikes]

Better git going on your invasion plans - winter starts next week.

[Edward Teach]

We’re not worried....you Yanks would run out of supplies just stumbling around trying to find us.

Then there’s this:

Nope...not worried at all.

BTW we’ll gladly trade Quebec for Alaska. Whadaya say?

[Slings and Arrows]

"NO BLOOD FOR SYRUP!"

[null and void]

When socialist governments tax all the productivity out of their own economies they are left with no choice but to invade their neighbors.

Lots of oil in Alberta, lots of metals in Sudbury, and lots of doughnuts at Tim Hortons...

[Gay State Conservative]

Better git going on your invasion plans - winter starts next week.

We've already got that covered. The 8th Winter Warfare Battalion will be mobilized from its headquarters in Key West,Florida!

[null and void]

BTW we’ll gladly trade Quebec for Alaska. Whadaya say?

Not no, but HELL NO!!!

[Peter Libra]

BTW We we'll gladly trade Quebec for Alaska. Whadaya say?

After the upset of the PQ victory in the Provincial election in Quebec and indeed the sadness of Canadians on the news of murders of Americans in the Middle East, we need a laugh.

Boys oh boys, the spectre of the habitants of Quebec moaning and whining no matter who and what, would send most Americans scurrying back to the pleasant confines of New York State. I drove through Quebec once and continued down to Rouses Point NY. Felt like I was home. (laughs).

[SamAdams76]

It’s cold up there! And lots of trees.

[tumblindice]

That's pretty funny. The USA invading Ward Cleaver's home, and assisted by Cousin Eddie in his RV.

For preparation of an uncertain future. It’s not a real plan, in the sense that they are really planning on carrying it out at the moment.

How do you train staff officers on preparing war plans? By writing war plans. You figure out how many troops you need, what logistics you need, how many trucks and planes you need to support them, etc. etc. etc. And then you keep those staff exercises in the files just in case you need them. The level of detail usually matches how seriously we take the threat. Landing troops in Iran and taking out their nuclear facilities probably has shelves full of war plans, while the invasion of Canada is much sparser.

However, we should invade and conquer Canada in order to force them to take Detroit as part of their terms of surrender. :-)

[NoLibZone]

The nation will not invade, the people fleeing having to carry lazy ignorant, stupid, democrats , will.

Canada is far more capitalist and conservative than the US is.

[Jonty30]

We’ll take Detroit and you take Quebec.:)

[SeminoleCounty]

We’ll take Detroit and you take Quebec.:)

Gosh...I would throw in Baltimore and East St. Louis also for Quebec ;-)

We can send some Floridians to run Quebec (we deal w Haitian Creole all the time....the languages are similar)....but does Canada have enough bullets to keep Detroit in line?

[Edward Teach]

[Windcatcher]

LOL!

One thing, though...

5. After meeting feeble resistance from the already-weakened-by our-clever-campaign-Americans, Canadian troops seize control of all US cities.

I'm going to be a friend and warn you. You don't want our cities. Trust me, you really don't (especially Detroit!)

[oldrobert]

Operations Plan (OPLAN)Crimson called for a two pronged attack into Canada, in the east toward Toronto, in the west into BC as part of a trade war with the UK. It was in effect until the mid 1930’s. We have planners who plan for every possible contingencey; it’s what they do. Planners plan.

[factoryrat]

Ha Ha! All your Labatt’s and jelly donut are belong to us, eh!

[Jonty30]

The Federal government would just bore them to death.

[Lazamataz]

BALDERDASH. I happen to have this copy of the news from June of 2072.

[kevao]

winter starts next week.

Starting awful late this year, eh?

[clearcarbon]

[headsonpikes]

Yes, I wish the goddam bears would just finish up their eating and get to sleep for the winter; you can’t walk a mile around here without stumbling across these chicken-gobbling, cherry-tree-breaking, lawn-crapping giant furballs.

Luckily, no grizzlies within 3 or 4 miles - they’re a real pain in the butt for those who’ve got them hanging around.

Actually, winter’s a couple of months away here in the south.
