You honestly believe that if the US oil supplies were cut off for whatever reason, the US wouldn't look North? Oil has it firmly planted in the Middle East, why would it not seek to gain control over the oil supplies in Canada? Canadians certainly believe they would!

As to the oil, Canada has its own oil supply, which the US is trying to get their hands on. There is no doubt that should something happen in the Middle East that cuts off the oil supply, the US would most likely find an excuse to invade Canada as it has Iraq.

Wow, maybe you've been in Canada too long, joined the hate America crowd. I heard Micheal Moore has a new movie come out, I guess our neighbors to the north will help make him richer bashing America.
Things are not always as they seem you can fall in the ditch on the left as well as the right.

Canada has not only become Anti America but Anti-God as well.
They have laws now in canada where you can't preach against sin and immoral practices .

Show me one example of American invading a friendly nation. Oil in the Middle East is held by dictators and terrorists.
If America was of the "old school" we would have gone into Iraq, completely occupied the country and hooked up the oil pipeline, to pay for the war. Has this happened? Only in the M. Moore minds of the world.

You're getting a little carried away here gentlemen.
Nobody said they hate the U.S. I love the U.S. but it may not hurt to listen to another perspective even if you don't agree without getting so defensive.
What is always amazing to me is how that Americans make many prejudicial statements about other countries and nationalities but as soon as someone starts to be honest and speak honestly about some of the U.S.'s own weakness or failing or what have you they come unglued.
And Thad........
We still preach against sin and immorality here.

I'm not unglued, I even agreed with some of TB's assessments, but we are a little defensive right now because of the division even among ourselves. It is actually a sad state of affairs.

I was referring partly to the "hate America crowd" statement.
My husband has lived in Canada now for 35 years and he's not taken out Canadian citizenship yet. He loves his country and I love his country as well. He's also come to appreciate (if not love exactly  ) mine.

I knew what you were saying, I appreciate you and TB's posts on this forum. Except maybe when he starts praising Bill Clinton.

LOL! I know. I told him that would be a very unpopular opinion.
It will be interesting to see how history treats Bill Clinton.
