Look at it like this. Canada was and still is part of the British Empire and therefor Canada was part of the British forces and therefor when anyone mentions what the English did you can just pretend they mean the British.

The first step in gaining a reputation as big as the USA is kicking the English out of your country. The world will continue to see Canada as England's toady for as long as the Queen is Canada's head of state.

Good luck with your revolution.

lol if you believe that you are ignorant as hell, and the USA lost to a third world country that's how bad their military is.

A. I was being cheeky.

B. I find it hilarious that you'd call anyone ignorant while making statement like that.

 

On another topic. Maybe Canada gets forgotten because it has 1/10th the population of the USA. For every Canadian who wants to see a Canadian focused war movie there are 10 Americans buying tickets to an American focused war movie. It probably doesn't help that over 90% of the population live within about 100 miles of the US border, shop, and vacation in the USA, and generally get mistaken for Americans when visiting abroad.

If every Canadian couple had 20 kids Canada would have the same population as the USA in the span of one generation. That would mean Canada would probably have a film industry on par with the USA and they'd be able to make as many Canadian war movies as they want.

Have fun making babies.

I' not ignorant you are just more ignorant then I thought look up your own military history, USA has sucked in just about every battle it's been in, it only wins by having overwelming forces and even then they sustain a hell of alot more losses then they should. The reason isn't population it's that americans control the media that's it.

I don't know where you get your anti-American information or why you seem to have an attitude about the USA vs Canada. Lord knows the world is full of people that love to hate the USA and tend to post less than impartial information on the subjest. But as far as unbias comparison of military strength, feel free to check out the following link: http://www.globalfirepower.com/

Of course you are free to disregard that information, insult me, my country, the wars my father, and grandfather, and family fought for freedom in and continue to belital the military my brother and friends are in today that continues to defend liberty and justice throughout the world. You are free to hate America as much as you want since Canada is perfect in every way and American is clearly an evil conspiracy to create suffering through the world and Canada should just take over and run the whole world so everyone can be perfect Canadians too.

You may have mistaken my humor for insults. Sorry about that, but sarcasm is difficult to convey in text. To remedy that I suggest you remove the chip on your shoulder on the topic of US/Canada relations and grow a sense of humor about yanks and canucks, who by the way aren't all that different.

Contrary to popular belief the US doesn't control the media, not even the media in the USA. American's media has an American perspective just like Canadian media has a Canadian perspective or Australia has an Australian perspective. That's to be expected. Venezuela is another story altogether though.

I should tell you a secret. I happen to love and respect Canada and have visited many times and will, I'm sure, many times more. There, the truth is out. I feel better now, almost liberated.

The USA and Canada are like best friends, and we should be friends too. We share the longest unprotected border in the world and our economies are linked closer than probably any other soverenties. Plus we are both gamers who happen to live in the same hemesphere and speak the same language. We may have even played Halo on the same team and not even known it. We shouldn't be arguing about who's country is better when both are pretty damn good countries with pretty damn good militaries both rated in the top 30. It's not a pissing contest. Our nations wouldn't hesitate to defend each other.

I didn't want to argue about this, but you insulted my country and the military that defends it of whom my family and friends are part of. You weren't joking or being ironic, you were being serious and melicious. I've now said my peace on the subject and I will leave you be.

That's just troops and armorments it has nothing to do with the overall effectiveness of the military, the USA lost to vietnam, they had far more military strength and still lost badly, the USA has sucked in every major battle they have been in despite having the advantage, so again look at military history and educate yourself. And the whole USA fighting for freedom is such a joke, they didn't enter the world wars until years after they began and they invade thrid world countries and bomb things for no good reason most of the time too. They take heavy losses despite having a massive advantage in military strength and their military spending and sheer stupidity is the reason the world is on the verge of ecnomical collapse. People who dislike the USA dislike it for very good reason.
