as I expected. When you can't answer or don't know you reply with gibberish

As expected you make a silly statement with no back up.

You say "most of the world" with no back up on who they are.

I follow and sat "most of the world" and you want to know who "most of the world" is.

You said it first... you tell me.

They obviously don't teach geography up in Canada! When the Foreign Affairs Minister of Canada claims the area where the Russians planted the flag as "Canadian property"!

Here is the quote!


Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay said planting a flag will not change the claim to the region.

"There is no question over Canadian sovereignty in the Arctic. We've made that very clear. We established a long time ago that these are Canadian waters and this is Canadian property," MacKay told CBC News.

"You can't go around the world these days dropping a flag somewhere, this isn't the 14th or 15th century. "

He's YOUR Leader! :lol:

So simple.

Two very different statements meaning two very different things

Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay said planting a flag will not change the claim to the region.

An instance or an object if you will

"There is no question over Canadian sovereignty in the Arctic. We've made that very clear. We established a long time ago that these are Canadian waters and this is Canadian property,"

A global statement. One does not directly tie to the other.

Do they not also teach English composition after the 8th grade in the USA?

"Like shooting fish in a barrel"

Next....

MacKay's no leader. He's been bounced around the Defense ministy, Foreign ministry, Belinda's bedroom. He couldn't find his arse with both hands. They don't get to be politicians because they know something.

Nice try.

MacKay was indeed talking about the exact spot where the Russians planted their flag as Canadian property. You can cut it up anyway you want to but in the end you lose per usual.

They obviously do not teach English comp up there if that is your take on what he said.

Please... feel free to keep your head in the sand. The Russians just LOVE Canada. They think Canadians are SO POLITE. Feel better?

You can name as many as you want. In the meantime the rest of the world will be closing in on the Artic. Get those slush breakers going! That will stop the Russian Navy!

A lot of ice and those islands will slow the Russian navy ... if they even bothered to head this way. You do know what a map is don'cha Marine?
