Well not to burst your bubble, but bigger is not always more powerful. I love Canada but the U.S. could kick our ass, plain and simple.

If we were in jail, sure we could be a 6 foot 6 black man named Bubba. But the States would be a smaller more agile man with military training and knowledge of every martial art known to man. So we would still be their bitch.

I belive the person who made that picture was trying to clever but never thought it though. It doesn't make sense.

it's just a joke!

and.. in anycase, i don't think the US would be more agile, smarter, or better than us.

there's just so much more of them is all, it'd be 100 to 1.

hahahahaha thats damn hilarious!
just a joke man, no deep meaning attached to it
but yes, in reality, the stats could kick our ass BUT, they wouldnt dare for so many political, economical, and social reasons that i probably should not go into

Bah....the British SAS could kill any special ops member from the American army in a flash. Americans has a BIG army, but it is not of the best quality....they just overpower enemies with more men, machines and bombs (and nukes if it came to that!). They focus on overkill rather than a smaller, but more efficient, army like other countries including the UK.

Canada is a better country overall on the social side of things...but our once great military (WW1 and WW2, Korea) is now a disgrace.

Plus, we beat the yanks in the GOLD MEDAL hockey game in the 2002 Olympics on American ice!! It just does not get better than that!!!!

wait, it does gett better
canada is the only nation to have burnt the white house down

I understand it was a joke. I see jokes like that all the time. At first they were funny but now it seems like we are acting just as bad as those few Americans that always say that Canadains suck and they could kick are ass. And booing the American anthem at hockey games, how low class can we get. What is patriotic about that. I don't get it.

Dj Smitty20 - As for your British ops, dude that is your opinion. Even if it was true you couldn't prove that unless they went toe to toe in battle.

Team Canada beating the U.S. was the best hockey game ever. It was damn sweet.

yeah.. don't forget our women rocked their women too!

The British SAS does regularly defeat Marines, Navy Seals and the Green Berets in war games Jesten. Of course, the American army and media does not talk about that fact very often as you can imagine.
Also, I was reading in the Globe and Mail (a story they got off a British newspaper called the International Express) last week and they had an interesting story about fighting in Afghanistan.

60 SAS commandos were engaging Taliban fighters at a place called Tora Bora in November last year when they discovered through capturing a few Al Queida fighters that Bin Laden was holed up in the fortress at Tora Bora. The SAS CEO radioed into command and said they could get him but the AMerican military brass based in Florida told the Brits to wait fo the Americans because "they should be the ones to apprehend him." By the time the Yanks got there (about 40 minutes later), Bin Laden was gone. That is a great case of the American army being idiots and fouling up....they've done it countless times. In WW2, Canadian and British troops were a day's march away from ROME in early 1944 but Eisenhower ordered Montgomery (British general in command of Canadian and British forces) to wait for General Clarke and the American forces because they should be the first to enter Rome. SO the Canadians and Brits had to wait a week. I'm an Honours History student and I know this stuff is true. Watch the History Channel or something one time.

Americans can be the biggest idiots on the block sometimes, especially when it comes to their military.

Oh, and April_Peel.....Canada never burnt down the White House. That was done in 1814 when Canada wasn't even a nation yet. It was still a British colony at the time.

As an historian, it really gets me going when Canadians take credit for beating the Americans in the War of 1812. It was British regulars (redcoats) and Native Americans AND Canadian militia together that defeated the invading American armies. But it was soley British forces who marched into the US after winning the war in Europe with Napoleon and burned down the White House as a retalitory act for the yanks burning down York (Toronto). Many Americans think they won the War of 1812 because the Brits failed to take over the USA again. But that was not their intention....the attacks launched inside US territory were purley retalitory so as to show who was "king of the castle" on the international stage (Britain at that time).

People really do need to pay more attention to Canadian history!

yeah, i know it wasnt canada canada yet, BUT, lots of those ppl stayed on the land and are our ancestors. maybe they werent called canadians yet, but they had our northern spirit

i honestly dont know what im saying hehehe but it was still OUR ppl. and the only reason its funny when canadians put amerians down (a little) with jokes like the above, is because we know that we are as good as americans are and americans dont like admiting that (fortunately not all are like that) and we know that

booing someone's national anthem IS low btw. hopefuly, that will be part of GM Place new rules about banning ppl who dont know how to behave in public
