the janitor Posted June 15, 2009 Report Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Yes I do have an argument. Canada does not have the military might the US has. But we do have a military of a little less than a hundred thousand and there are over 3 million hunters with over 7 million high-powered hunting rifles in Canada. There are also several thousand civilian police officers and several hundred thousand Aboriginal Canadians who will not stand for Americans telling them what to do. Canadian terrain is perfect for guerilla warfare and there's lots of it: Canada is a huge country. If the Americans cannot control an area the size of Iraq, they sure aren't going to occupy even a small part of Canada effectively. Add the fact that Americans don't have the stomach to fight a war for more than six or seven years and it's only a matter of time before the yanks pack up and go home (passports or not).

Continuing this fantasy, the GTA panics at mere gang warfare and all those guns...oh my. Add the fact that Americans don't have the stomach to fight a war for more than six or seven years and it's only a matter of time before the yanks pack up and go home (passports or not). Actually, more Canadians pack up and go to the USA each year. Good luck with the fantasy war fed by an inferiority complex and anti-American neurosis. Maybe next year we will let you win the Stanley Cup just to make nice. Edited June 15, 2009 by bush_cheney2004 Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
the janitor Posted June 15, 2009 Report Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) I couldn't care who wins the Stanley Cup. I never learned how to skate. I know...shameful for a Canadian. I might be willing to change my opinion on this whole invasion thing if Palin was put in charge of Alberta. Actually, you can have Toronto either way. Edited June 15, 2009 by the janitor Quote

Lets get back to reality here....The whole thing would be over in less than a night, and you'd here about it all on the drive to work the next morning....shit for most of Canada nothing would change....Maybe the stops signs in Quebec....or the way the cops asked you to get out of your car.... Less than 100,000 in the military....thats funny... 3 mil hunters....they only own 2 rifles so they can find one of them the next morning after boozing it up the night before....As Canadians very few hunt to feed themselfs....they hunt to get out of the house and awy from the wife with as much beer as they can carry.....and unless you give out a free 24 with every US soldier they bag your not going to get them out of the house....

jbg Posted June 15, 2009 Report Posted June 15, 2009 Canada does not need the US as much as they need us. There'll always be a market for Canada's resources.They're more likely to move out of Puget Sound then Halifax, unless the Atlantic Provinces can get out of their own way and start exporting oil.Canadian innovation and technology are limitless. Canada built the Avro Arrow.And who would buy a 1958-vintage plane? Of course if the Americans were foolish enough to try and invade Canada, we'd teach them a lesson by winning hands down. We did in 1812, if they need to be reminded which of the two nations is really the most powerful every couple hundred years, so be it.1812 was a tie. The U.S. was admittedly really foolish to invade without full preparation. The British didn't do much better in New Orleans. At least the U.S. made Louisiana adopt English as their language prior to admission so we didn't have a time bomb a la Quebec in our midst.The only good thing about America if you ask me is NASCAR That shows your level of sophistication and maturity; nonexistant.

Doesn't sound like the hunters I know. Doesn't seem you know too much about racing technology either the way you talk about NASCAR...hell of a lot more sophisiticated than a hockey puck. Quote
Army Guy Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 Doesn't sound like the hunters I know. Are you kidding me, Are you saying that most hunters take the SPORT seriousily, they're actually out there for the hunt, and not just an excuse to get the hell out of the house for a week and drink as much beer as possiable....I think we should have a vote.... Doesn't seem you know too much about racing technology either the way you talk about NASCAR...hell of a lot more sophisiticated than a hockey puck. Actually i think you got the wrong guy, i never said anything about NASCAR....but you comment only confirms your redneck status, but then again a redneck that does not hunt and drink.....maybe it's a new bred..... But hey this post is about the US attacking Canada....our defense is so dependant upon the US military that your making more out of this than is really there....that and the fact our military actually has more in common with the US military than Canada , sad really....and i'm sure that if the right deals were cut, you might find thats all you had was 3 million red necks with a few hunting rifles....time the invasion during the Stanley cup play offs and well you and a few of your buiddies might be the only ones defending this nation....putting your odds at par with Toronto winning the cup before the year 2100.

Sorry about the NASCAR shot there, army guy. To be honest, I hunt but I don't drink. Even if Canadian hunters do drink, I don't think that's much of a handicap...there's enough drug abuse and alcoholism in the US military to even things out. Quite frankly I don' think we're reliant on the US for our defence. Anyone else tries to attack North America, it will be the US that's the target, not Canada. Quote

Even if Canadian hunters do drink, I don't think that's much of a handicap...there's enough drug abuse and alcoholism in the US military to even things out. As much as we joke about the US military it is still a very professional , very well equipped , very well trained armed force. one that could without little problem sieze and hold Canada without much of a problem... Just to put it into context, the US marine corp has more women in it's ranks, Than the enitire Canadian military has troops. there are more police officers in New York city than we have troops ....Our entire military could fit into the Toronto maple gardens and still have thousands of seats left over.... Quite frankly I don' think we're reliant on the US for our defence. Anyone else tries to attack North America, it will be the US that's the target, not Canada. Our entire defence is based on the US and it's military strength. NORAD is a US/Canadian run organization which is US owned and commanded, which surv's space, anything airbourne and soon waterbourne, and coastal....most of our Airforce is tied up one way or another with this defence agreement....Our Navy has ships inbedded in US naval battle groups....between our Naval NATO commitments and few patrols on our coast there is not much left to do anything... Our Army only has 3 Brigade groups just over 6000 troops each....to protect our entire country, this size of force might be enough to conduct a proper defence operations in say PEI, but last time i looked there was much more to Canada than PEI....But then again a full third of that number is involved in Afghan....and our units are so undermanned now it would make you sick..... As for Canada not being a target, think again, our mutual defence agreements say we are very much a target....and the Canadian military would be very much engaged with any enemy trying to drive thru us to get to the US....we act like a little speed bump...

If charlatans like Gore and Suzuki are right that will have some value and it's hard to defend without spending.
