    Hmm, that might be because you have no crappy products of your own to sell. Apart from guns.

    Dear lord! Jealous of what-your fantastic economy or your 10% unemployment rate?
    I can't think of a single thing I'd be envious of America for.

    Americans are notoriously inept at geography.

    This does not surprise that less than 50% know Canada's cities...

    All the American's out there, play nice with Canada. They have billions of barrels of
    oil tied up in their oil sands, and I'd much rather deal with them than
    the Saudis or Venezuelans.

    One estimate put the oil reserves in Canada's oil sands at over a trillion barrels.

    The issue is getting the oil out of the sands, as oil prices rise it becomes more cost effective.

    Canada will be the new Saudi Arabia.

    Obama said we only have 57 states. I always thought he was talking about those lumberjack guys up north.

    Due to insufficient leadership and an inability to keep your backyard cleaned up, your leaders decided to be our (*)(*)(*)(*)(*). Nobody to blame but yourselves for the infection.

    I don't drink much beer, but your Labatt's doesn't taste good either.

    Now, that hurts.

    now that is absolutely true, Canadian petroleum is very important to the US!

    having been in Canada many times, I like the country, especially the western portion. can't beat those Canadian Rockies for skiing, panoramic views, and friendly people.
