Not the same for Canada. Canada was not a result of nationalism, and no statues have been sculpted to some martyr here ... we dont have national heroes and lack patriotism that you guys have that drive you to maintaining warfare that will one day result in your demise. Cracks can already be seen in your invincible machine.

That is true, if America falls, or should I say when it falls and changes into a totally different animal, Canada will no longer be Canada. Like Zild said, its simply the nature of the beast. It will happen, history does repeat itself. Humans are damn near incapable of reinventing them selves.... look at even the most trivial things in humanity.... fashion, music, myths aka: religions,
You do know the are remaking the ing Karate Kid with Jacki Chan playing Mr. Miaggi, right??

Soviet Union collapsed but much of Eastern Europe has reinvented itself, with exceptions to the countries like Ukraine and Belarus who have Russia partly to blame. Look at Czechs today, currently leading the EU.
So Canada will be fine when you guys go down - unless you physically take us down with you. Otherwise Canada will readjust and refocus on EU and other partners.
American Empire's fall will affect many countries in some way, but that doesn't mean the world will stop and we all die from it or start speaking Arabic or Spanish all of a sudden. You need to look at things more rationally. |

| So do you. When Rome fell the city and the people and the land didn't just cease to exist. What we are talking about is the power you now enjoy by being allied with us will be gone. |

We were fine before. Not so long ago, when we were close to the British. I was studying some Canadian history lately and funny how it wasn't that long ago when we tried to protect ourselves from America and its Manifest Destiny (threatening Canadian national integrity) and the liberal system, and imposed tariffs to protect Canadian goods and economy.
"Peace, order, good government" vs. your "Liberty, opportunity and pursuit of happiness".
Your American system has really killed off our old Canadian values. Time to get them back. There was a time when we weren't dependent on you guys and didnt need your tanks because we were too busy protecting ourselves from your aggression. ;)
Who knows - maybe next thing you know Canada will be allied with Russia? British came and went, Americans may do so too, who's next? |
