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.

Not to mention Canada's got one heck of a lot of oil in shale. It's expensive to extract, but at today's prices becoming economically viable.

i'd say it will probably be the 45th state if this is true because in 20 years time New York, Washington, and many other states will have been nuked to nothing.

Dear Canadians:

In reference to your excellent free taxpayer funded healthcare, I give you this article dated 25 November 2005, easily found on Google:

"........."Many Canadians may also come down here for treatment that is not yet available at home or treatments that may have to wait some time to get at home."

The Mayo Clinic, based in Rochester, Minn., has seen its Canadian clientele grow over the past few years, with an estimated 1,500 to 2,000 of them travelling to its three clinics for care each year, said Misty Hathaway, the clinic's international relations administrator.

"It seems to relate to some access issues there," Ms. Hathaway said.

"And there is that issue of being able to address a lot of medical needs at one time in a very efficient way."

They also have a former patient -- a Canadian based in Thunder Bay -- who works their virtual Canadian office, returning telephone calls from the public."


In short, it would seem your health care sucks. Please stay home and die. American hospitals are for Americans.

If you follow the link, the article is about a clinic in Cleveland.

I rest my case.
