Does Canada have any oil ressources?
Now government agencies have even stopped pretending that the U.S. is the paragon of freedom.
No the us have long ago 'liberated' alaska.

I agree. Canadians must answer their unleashing of Celine Dion on the free world.
I'll do it for cheesy poofs.
I think Bush put it thus:
"The problem with the French is that they don't have a word for entrepreneur."
-George W. Bush, discussing the decline of the French economy with British Prime Minister Tony Blair

imagine how trivial invading across an undefended border would be....
I dunno... General Hull tried this in 1812, and got his ass whipped.
You just don't understand. Dubya just wants to take our rights and keep them in a safe place for us. That way the terrorists can't get them, don't ya see? All our rights are still there. We may even get to take our kids to see them someday. They'll be preserved in pristine condition in hermetically sealed jars. We should thank Dubya for taking such good care of our rights!

Moreover, Celine Dion is from Quebec!! She's a secret weapon of the French to invade North America!!
The propaganda machines are up and running to prepare for another liberation. Tomorrows headlines: Canadian bacon is people!
As a Finn, that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside... Beer..... Hockey.... More beer.....
ObSatireWire: Canadian warship seizes tanker in... wait... Canada has a warship?

Isn't that a bit optimistic for an exchange rate?
I swear, this is a true story, and still cracks me up today. My wife and I took our honeymoon through the Canadian Rockies (hiking, 2-day train ride, whale watching, etc). It was really awesome, and everyone was really nice. As the train pulled out of Vancouver, there was graffiti on the overpasses. Just your normal tags, people's names and whatnot. As we started to get to the edge of Vancouver, there was a big graffiti mural on one of the overpasses. What did it say?
"Welcome to Vancouver"
Even the damn graffiti is polite! I still can't believe it, and it cracks me up every time I think of it. I wish I would have gotten a picture of it.
My beliefs do not require that you agree with them.
Thank you, Amber, what a delightful site. I'm looking forward to the movie, no doubt starring Leslie Neilsen.

How's tourism anywhere in the US since the War?

Sadly, it almost makes a twisted sort of sense.
If the US wants to have any credibility whatsoever with the war-for-freedom rhetoric, they should at least stop supporting the worst dictators on the planet.
It should invade them instead.
