[ QUOTE ] There's nothing more fun than the age old Canada debate and just how gosh darn defensive the Canadians are about it. We pick on Canada in jest, and they get all worked up and like wave leaves at us. [/ QUOTE ] Imagine a country that would say no when Frenchmen told them they wanted to leave.

Re: [censored] Canada
In my first year Canadian Geography class we had a unit solely on how the U.S. continually tries to screw Canada. One example was the scallop fishery off the east coast. It is a little tricky deciding who own what part of the Ocean, and there are a couple ways to do it. U.S. And Canada were fighting over how to do it in this case. They got an arbitrator and agreed to accept whatever they decided. The Canadians said lets be fair and split it down the middle method. The States said lets do it the way that serves us the best. The arbitrator decided to take the middle between which they had eached asked for giving the U.S. much more of the area. So Canada gets screwed but of course accepts because they had an agreement. Not long after they find that the scallops for some reason are living off the tip of some underwater trench which happens to lay in the portion given to Canada and 80% of the scallops were in their area. So anyone want to guess what the U.S. does. You probably guessed right, they decided to ignore the arbitrators ruling they agreed to abide by and fished for them where ever they pleased. rJ

Re: [censored] Canada
I figured it had enough entertainment value to be a little off topic. We had a whole unit on this stuff.

[ QUOTE ] Many economists predict that within two decades, water will be traded around the world much as oil is now. Canada contains more than 20% of the worlds fresh water resources. With its resources, they say, Canada is poised to become the richest nation on earth.

It's expensive to extract, but at today's prices becoming economically viable.
