    Like that's gonna happen.

    Even if we all like you, which we do, our politicians will still dick you around on trade.

      Politicians should be regularly rounded up and shot. The world would be a better place.

        Im wondering if the US home construction industry (the main purchasers of soft wood lumber) could talk about THEIR contributions to the war on terror?

            New & Improved: OTBOT
            Actually, I believe I do know how to get around the red, bold, italics, etc.

            Use the word OTBOT in the post.

            I made a post that was redded by OTBOT. So I edited it and said something nasty about OTBOT. The edited post was no longer red. Victory is mine!

              Check the post earlier in the thread (22 Cdn soldiers abroad).

              We don't want to get into the discussion about what the average american does and does not know. Do we?

                1. That was SO in jest.

                  Can we go the middle route and stop dicking you around on trade and not look on you any more favorably?

                        Canada invented peacekeeping and started NATO and tried to stop the Rwandan Genocide even though the US and UN were useless.

                          I'm interested in hearing how Canada invented NATO or peace keeping for that matter. It would seem that various imperial powers used peace keeping/ocupying forces since time unremembered.

                              Don't you know who Lester B. Pearson was?




                              He's largely considered the father of peacekeeping, and he also was the one who started NATO discussions, seeking cooperation with the United States and others as a cooperative group, not just a military alliance.
