And you know this how? Seems to me that had we sat around with our
thumbs up ours asses since Crouton and Martin totally destroyed the
Canadian Military we stand a very good chance of being invaded by any
number of countries. Then what? Will that be Harpers fault as well?

Until recently. Of course it has been a very, very subtle and peaceful
invasion....they now own more than half of canada industry I am
guessing. Most of my new neighbours are from - Houston, Texas that is,
not Houston, B.C. The americans have over 400 head offices in Quebec
and spreading. Do YOU consider this a failure to invade?
