Canadians, not British, burned the White House?
Their Parliament building burned in 1916. It wasn’t the Germans.
Makes you go hmmm.....
Remember the River Raisin!
Interesting. According to the article both plans, the Canadian in 1921 and the American one (cost $57 million in Depression Era 1930 dollars??!!), forecast a friendly reception and light casualties for the invaders.
A US-Britain war in the early 20th century would have been quite a mess. Of course, today, Canada and the UK have only tiny military forces.
We have fought six wars with Canada—more than we have with any other country. They are as follows:
The War of the League of Augsburg (1688-1697)
The War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714)
The War of the Aurstian Succession (1740-1748)
The Third Silesian War (1754-1763)
The War of the American Revolution (1775-1783)
The War of 1812 (1812-1815)
However, in four of those wars, we were English and Canada was French. In the final two, Canada was English.
Your current president is doing a bang-up job turning your country into a larger version of Canada except that your closer proximity and warmer climate means that you get the added treat of ten million illegals. Any that get this far must be pretty adaptable so we don’t even bother to look for them.
As a result, we won’t invade, we’ll just wait for the inevitable suggestion of a merger.
by larger I mean population of course, Canada is actually slightly larger than the USA on the map, although half of that is frozen solid. The area within which we actually live is probably about the equivalent of the southern third of the lower 48.
I have had some really rude snarky comments made to me up there. I am from Texas we don't treat visitors that way.
If that merger occurs we will demand a clause in the new Constitution stating that it’s “zee” rather than “zed”...and that football fields have 100 yards.
I,too,have run into that and have a theory as to its cause.But I won't share it in "mixed" company.
Actually the BEST PATH for Canada to invade the US is to work with the Mexican government to get a RINO elected that will open our southern border to millions of Mexican ‘refugees’ and then simply outvote us.
I regret that some of my fellow Canadians were rude to you. We have our fair share of ignorant ass-hats up here. I’d welcome you to Canada and clink beer bottles with you anytime. (Canadian beer, of course!)
Just go Alberta Ditter. We like real Americans up here. I always make sure I deal with real Americans though before helping travellers out. I usually just ask if they voted for obama. For everyone except one, it sets off a rant against him. Then I say welcome to Alberta, anything I can do to help you out? Heh.
I am done with liberals.
A Canadian is walking down the street with a case of beer under his arm.
His friend Arnie stops him and asks, ‘Hey Bill, whatcha got that case of beer for?’
‘Well, I got it for my wife, you see?’ answers Bill.
‘Wow!’ exclaims Arnie, ‘Great trade.’
We vacationed in Manitoba last summer, and at a road construction sight this little blonde sweetie road guard struck up a conversation about politics. She was from Alberta, and had nothing good to say about Canadian libs, went on about how they stifle job growth, take away from those that earn, etc etc. She went on about some PM in either Alberta or BC got in and is ruining things.
She appeared to be in her early 20’s, very politically savvy, and I was quite impressed.
