The Canadian government is so leftist that it disarmed itself. Right now Canada is so pathetically armed that it could lose a war with Denmark or Luxembourg.

Someone told me that the NYPD outnumbered the Canadian miltary...and was also better armed.

This is the transcript of an ACTUAL radio conversation of a US
naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in
October, 1995.
************************************************** *****
Radio conversation released by the Chief of Naval Operations 10-10-95.
************************************************** *****
Americans: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the North to
avoid a collision.

Canadians: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I repeat, divert YOUR course.

Canadians: No. I repeat, you divert YOUR course.

Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER U.S.S. MISSOURI, WE ARE A LARGE WARSHIP OF THE U.S. NAVY. DIVERT YOUR COURSE NOW!

Canadians: This is a lighthouse. Your call.

Yeah, the chief of naval operations or whatever would never release that. Plus, I'm not sure that the USS Missouri is still in service

Fortunately I don't think there is a great danger of Canada being attacked by either Denmark, Luxembourg, or the NYPD

I bet you if Texas was located on the Canadien border they would seriously think about invading it and then succeed from the US.

Wasn't the USS Missouri a BATTLESHIP? Whoever made that up could've atleast tried to make it believeable.

As for the Canadian Navy, or military in general, I think it is the LARGEST in the world. It just mostly starts with the letters US...
