    You have a heritage?

      Not if I can prevent it. Thanks, but no thanks on the offer to lose all traces of our heritage in the American melting pot...
      Surrender to the melting pot.

        And the oil sands are only 40% of the oil supply in Alberta, known so far (they're always looking for even more).


        How can you make a claim that they have found only 40% of what is there to be found? Surely you only know how much is there when you have found it all. I presume rather that you mean that current production, which is reserves irrelevant, accounts for 40%.

        The whole thing is interesting. Canada will be the home of the next "Gulf war", when the European Rapid Reaction force has to assist in liberating Alberta from the US invasion force.
        One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

          Why fight for oil that we control through NAFTA?

          The Canucks don't need oil anyway. I mean, how much gas do snowmobiles actually use?

            Development has just started recently in the oil sands, and it'll be a while before huge production starts of oil from there.
            You mean the environmental clean up operation is only just underway?.

              40% of the reserves known so far are in the oil sands, which alone have more than Saudi Arabia. That was my point. There's one oil field in particular, Athabasca, that has more than Saudi itself.

              You mean the environmental clean up operation is only just underway?.
              Alberta is known for its environmental-friendly techniques with oil. Calgary, the oil capital of Canada, has recently been rated as the cleanest major city in the world. The equipment used in Alberta is all fairly new and modern, so it's very efficient.

                  The entire Caribean Island chain.

                  this country is getting crowded and Americans will need vacation spots OWNED by us where we will feel safe from bombs and bullets and big planes and people with diapers and towels on their heads and so-on.

                  Israelis can come vacation there too(well pay for the Islands, in part, with Israeli tourist's cash).

                  cons- really, REALLY,expensive

                    Forget adding things, I say that we get rid of California . By the way, the U.S. is no longer refered to as a "cultural melting pot". It is reffered to as a "cultural tossed salad." Pun intended? Anyway, I would take Alberta, Yukon, and Northwest Territories.

                    BTW: Canadians are indeed a separate nationality with a unique identity. Everyone knows that they are the friendly nation of flannel wearing, mullett sporting, hockey watching socialists, directly north of the U.S. However, nine out of ten Americans think that its capital is Toronto, and the rest think that it is Montreal. No one has ever heard of Ottowa.

                            If Canadians and Americans are so similar, why isn't it the Americans who are Canadian?

                              I always thought that Canada's history is less ugly than the history of United States when it comes to race and ethnicity.

                              Or am I wrong, and is that just an ignorant presumption??
                              A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

                                We like to pat ourselves on the backs for that one. As true as any generalisation like that can be, but there's enough racism in this continent's history to go around.

                                BTW, Canada also pulled that internment bull**** on Japanese-Canadians in WWII, and until 1830 there were slaves on the streets of Montreal and Halifax...
