Kind of like Alexander The Great And Napolean with the whole invading the other countries part. Great minds think alike no? But the US has managed to build their\'s in a peaceful way.
Well, the whole "Canada has such an inferiority complex" also bothered me. The fact that you singled out jp before because he was french was a tad bit ingorant too.
What French person isn\'t against the war? Either French or French Canadian? Also I haven\'t been the only one to single out him for being French Canadian - just look at the responses to some of his posts.
As far as the inferiority complex, it seems like most Canadians do have one when it comes to the US. I understand Canada attempts to make a clear distinction between themselves and the US and I can\'t disagree with that, but it does become a bit fanatical at times where there is a slight bitterness towards the US and it is almost as if Canada wishes it were like Australia and didn\'t have to share any borders.
Like I said, I have nothing against Canada, well maybe I do against Quebec, but all in all, its quite a nice country and I enjoy going up there whenever I get a chance to.
On a lighter note, you all do have some funny TV up there. While watching NHL Center Ice on DirecTV we get the Canadian games and they don\'t edit the commercials so we get to see ads for upcoming shows. It is like the US without any actors I recognize

sort of an alternate universe. I swear I want to eat at Tim Hortons - that chili in a bread bowl drives my wife crazy, she is dying to try it.
