Significance.
..as for the answer to the question posed in the original post... maybe. Maybe not. Does it matter?

Those who can't spell "significance" should not be allowed to start threads about it. That is all.

Can you say super power. It is easy for someone from a nation as insignificant as canada to talk smack, but when it comes down to it...the US is a giant while canada is nothing more than the pubic hair on a giant's balls. Canada is absolutely pathetic. At least take the queen of England off your looney. Man up canadians...become significant.

Yea, as if canada could hold off a troop of girl scouts hurling cookies. canadians are pathetic, insignificant, and have zero clue. Your history is a history of wusses...or cannon fodder for the Brits.

Oh come on, you know thats bull. Why are you even participating in these little grudge matches?
We've always covered your back and that itself should be enough for anyone.

This thread is quickly going downhill. The United States isn't going to take over Canada anytime soon, so whining and moaning won't help anything.

No, you haven't. You had politicians calling Americans stupid and stomping Bush dolls...but you have never stuck your neck out for freedom...canadians have ALWAYS stuck their heads in the sand...afraid to make a stand. canada, in all honesty, is a pathetic nation who has ridden on the coat tails of the US far too long. Your economy is dependent on the US, your military is pathetic and you have no identity.

I don't know if we've lost our significance, but we appear to have lost our monopoly on illiteracy and boorishness.

To be fair I can bet more americans hate bush than canadians.
Lets play a little game. You speak in a rational manner, back up your points with evidence, and act in a civil and polite way. In exchange I'll take you seriously.

What evidence do you want? canada has never accomplished anything of significance. Canada has fought the US in every manner, hurled insults and even had anti-American textbooks. Yet, when it all comes down to it, canada remains insignificant. You have this weird culture where you think opposing the US is your significance. Meanwhile, you benefit from the power and milk and honey of the United States. I am sorry if you think a nation that still has the Queen of England on their money is significant. Hell, have you guys ever claimed independence from a nation that never gave two sh!ts about you? Sorry if I hurt your feelings, but canada is nothing in this world. Hell, Mexico gets more props than you. Like I said before, if the US weren't a racist nation, Mexico would be our closest ally while canada would still be a 3rd world country...or, better yet, an extension of Russia.
I guess I was wrong, canada is signficant because the people are whiter that Mexicans.

Why was my thread locked and not this one? My bad, it will be when I ask a question that can't be answered by the canadians. I almost forgot how this forum works.
