Ha, Go aghead, boycott our oil, our natural gas, our lumber.
You will be paying 6 bucks a gallon!!!!
Conquer us, maybe, but you wouldn't be able to hang on to us. You are going to have your hands full with Iraq and Afghanistan for the next 10 years. By the end of this you are all probably going to wish you had never bothered. It's going to cost you billions your sagging economy doesn't have, and prove to be an albatrose around your necks.
As far as that goes, the world opinion is still very much against the USA. Canada didn't support the US, neither did Mexico, neither did ANY other country in the Central or Southern America except Chile I believe. But next to Israel and Egypt, they draw the most foreign aid from the US, so their support is somewhat questionable.
China, Russia, France, Germany, they didn't support you either.
But you did have Slovenia on your side.
And by the way, i went to the Leafs (sob) game game against the Minnesota Wild (dumb name) and the US national anthem received a standing ovation. So there.
I love Americans, I just hate your war hawk gov't and George Bush IS a moron.
Hell on September 11, when planes were being diverted into Toronto because US airspace was closed, i called up an emergency number and offered to billet any stranded travelers in my home for free. As it turned out, there was no need, but the offer was made.
In several Canadian cities, thousands of Americans were taken in for 3 or 4 days while the Sept 11 problem was sorted out.
And there was that time in Iran when your people were held hostage for 444 days by a bunch of madmen, and Ken Taylor and the Canadian embassy staff took in several Americans who managed to escape and hid them there in the Canadian embassy, eventually smuggling them out on a Canadian military transport at risk to their own lives. And that was after the Americans had visited 2 other foreign embassies and were told that they could not stay.
Oh how quickly they forget.
