I'm not sure how I feel exactly about this article. There are some startling questions it brings up in my mind. I'm not particularily politically inclined but it seems to me that the largest "threat" won't be by use of arms as this article suggests, but an economic attack. For instance, the recent purchanse of Terasen Gas by a houston co. is just one example.
As for <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://invadecanada.us/">http://invadecanada.us/</a><!-- m --> , I don't take it very seriously. The "Canada-Bashing" trend is becoming a little too much for my tastes. Jokes are fine, but too many are becoming malicious attacks.

its funny when i saw this thread i thought it was serious because i had a conversation the other day about canada being invaded...the basic scenario was that bush's war in iraq fails and the people of iraq elect a government that forms a coalition with iran and cuts off oil to the US...when the US is on the brink of having no fuel for their cars or gas to heat their homes Alberta is a no brainer, and they wouldnt hestitate for a second...anyways not really in the theme of this thread but i thought it was funny i was just talking about an US invasion of Canada
