Default Canadian contributions to the World

I have been having a back and forth with another member of the forum who happens to be canadian. He likes to bash the US and call us a terrorist nation. That is not the topic of this thread.

I would like to know what good has canada given to the world. I have googled it and can't seem to find anything. I am looking for what canada (not what individual canadians have done) has done as a nation.

We should have simply taken the whole country back in 1812.

the whole country would have been equal to Rhode Island as a state. So we would have a 51st state and a place to go musky fishing.

They could have contributed more if they were part of the US.

Alright, this is good we have two good things, they sent a whopping 15,000 into Afghanistan and 2,500 are still there. I googled their efforts in WW2 and they are nothing short of heroic tales.

Nice but that would be an individual accomplishment.

Well Canada grows some spectacular hydroponic Pot... They had some better stuff in the 90s but it was so potent that the first joint resulted in a 25 point drop in the whole of the Canadian Culture IQ sothat had to put in a horticultural restricter plate and well... you know where that's goin'...

But seriously folks... I was sitting in a resturant in West Texas and they had a placemat with a list of "Noteworthy Canadian Contributions to the World... it also came with a matching pack of matches... which was distinct only in that it read: "The Complete List of Canadian Contributions to the World." The cleanest placemat you've ever seen and you've never seen a whiter white on a match book.

(Frodly, that means that according to this source, there are precisely NO contributions worthy of note, by the Canadians... EVER. It's a slam on the Cannukistanis which seeks to amuse the free world.)

I get it! It is a joke! Wow, that is one of the worst jokes I have ever heard!! Stick to unsubstantiated rants and premature assumptions, it is what you are good at. Leave the jokes to people with a sense of humor!
