Your nation only occupied the smallest portion that you were allowed to occupy at that time.

Maps of the British Empire always - correctly - show the whole of Canada as being British, coloured in pink.


The UK presently maintains insignificant forces to even consider holding Mainstreet in a small town, let alone any endeavor that would think about an entire nation

Britain's Armed Forces are round about the fourth most powerful in the world and Britain is one of just two countries that can send its armed forces to anywhere on the planet within 24 hours. It's one of just three or four countries with full spectrum military capabilities.


The Afghans have repelled Britain on a number of occasions...


They've repelled many people - including also the Russkies and the Yanks - on many occasions.

Blackie doesn't understand the concept of guerrilla warfare. He believes taking the Parliament means you've taken the country. He stuck in the 1940s which is not surprising considering that was the last time Brittain was even remotely relevant

Guerilla warfare has been around for THOUSANDS of years, yet it doesn't stop countries being invaded. Countries have been invaded for millennia, despite guerilla warfare. The British encountered guerilla warfare throughout their vast, glorious empire, yet for the most part it has little effect.

It must be difficult for you, living in the past like you do. You Brittish can't stop a few muzzy terrorists from lopping off peoples heads.

protip: Prove IT!!

They failed in 1812, they failed in Vietnam, they failed in Iraq (some say they didn't).

We could take out their power grid starting with Quebec and Ontario power lines that send power to them.

We could cut off Oil and Gas supply, can't fight a war without oil.

Urban warfare is different from conventional war. That is the problem with the NEW wars these days..

Dude are you high?

They couldnt win Iraq or Vietnam. Canada would be impossible to hold completely in a guerilla war.

Where will you get the guerrillas?

There are more guns per capita in Canada than In the United States. Considering how well educated population is, not to mention how wealthy it is, we would have no trouble taking the fight to the Americans. Considering how difficult it is to stop Mexicans from streaming across your southern border, it would be virtually impossible for you to stop the Canadians from coming down and setting off dirty bombs and your major cities.

What's cute is that you allow a few terrorists to take down the World Trade Center, killing 3000 people armed with nothing but box cutters and then underestimate the ability of a wealthy educated society to inflict some serious damage on you

Boomer dredged up one of the oldest arguments we used to have on this forum back in the beginning. During the Iraq War (closer to the beginning) some Canadians were absolutely convinced that Canada was next. For real! Most are gone now, laughed out but this would come up a lot.

Strategies, how Canadians can fight back against the imminent invasion... it was so entertaining.

+1 for Boomer... he knows the pulse of some Canadians. This could be a long thread.

Even Cuter!

Per capita huh! Cute!

Are you going to egg houses along the border?

I don't think the U.S. Would ever invade Canada. The argument about whether it would happen and how it would play out if it ever did are entirely different.

What, making fun of Brits and Americans that enjoy ***** measuring contest? Excited probably isn't the right word

Say what? Seems like you're trying to get your own **** measured.

What's the per capita stat again?

I'm sure it seems that way to you. I'm not really surprised.

Seems?

Uh huh
