they were largely refugees from your
revolting activities of the 1770s

Well, yes, you did take in a lot of our traitors.

Here, here's something interesting.

Just think, instead of constantly whining about the US having 'stole' the word 'American', YOU COULD BE ONE!

armed-to-the-teeth mobocracy developing in the southern thirteen colonies
Oh, come now, marcos, aren't we being a bit over the top here? You are speaking about your major trading partner (else why would you be bitching so much about dead trees?) and staunchest ally here.

Well, maybe not YOURS, actually. Canada's.

they chose another path, that of political evolution, not bloody revolution
Had that 'bloody revolution' not occurred, you'd still be a colony saying 'Mother, may I?'

very much similar to the paths to democracy taken by the brits themselves
We invented a shortcut. So?
And the American states were already democracies before the formation of the Union. All of them had had colonial legislatures long before independence. Come on, you know that. I think.

quite reasonable people
Actually, my boy, you're speaking of most Americans here. You just don't know it.

We also don't intend to put up with 9/11 again though.

well i don't think the russians ever would have found it in their interest to nuke us
Had push come to shove, I'm sure they would have laid a few eggs on Canadian territory.

So the Russians weren't imperialistic? What was Eastern Europe about then? They just wanted to cozy up to the Brits?

BTW, did you hear the gov't of The Auld Country, you know, that one where your queen lives, has said it will support US military action against Iraq? And help convince other nations?

Must stick in your craw.
