Hows that workin' for ya ? Canada has a budget SURPLUS, a POSITIVE
balance of trade, medical care for ALL, and a SHRINKING debt.

Match our credentials, ace.

Nothing is forever. We had virtually the same thing nine years ago.

Not the positive balance of trade, nor the medical care for ALL.

Try again.

Virtually. Not literally.

If the
globe is really warming, for example, you're going to need an air force
and
a navy of considerably greater proportions than you have now.

Why ? Is the US preparing to aggressively invade more places ?
It should stop doing that, as it's reputation is crap because of it.

No. Because you're going to have to police and perhaps defend the northwest
passage, and you have almost nothing to do it with. If you'd been paying
attention, you'd have noitced that the Russians have already begun to claim
arctic waters that Canada will contest. You're going to need help. Oh well,
maybe the Commonwealth will step up.

Unless, of
course, you ask for help, which we will be glad to provide even though we
may have a budget deficit, negative balance of trade, partial medical
care,
and an increasing debt. What are friends for, after all?

Oh, I don't know, lets ask that again, AFTER the US returns the $5
BILLION that it STOLE in violation of NAFTA and FTA... See " softwood
lumber "...

You are just being obtuse. Legal disputes always exist, and there seems to
be some disagreement about this one as well.

The modern US: A nation NOT to be trusted.

Now, you know very we'll be there if you need us. Don't be embarassed. We
weren't embarassed any of the times you helped us.
