You're angry 90% of the time you post anyway, thats not the type of attitude a Prime Minister would convey.

I would say that based on the originial thread I would love to see a funny movie about Canada as well but thats been done and they don't do much at all anyway so nothing to make fun of that's amusing, especially from a global perspective.

Oh you mean like "Canadian bacon" Filled with Canadian Stereotypes? Funny as hell if you ask me.

Made By Americans, with John Candy.

I do not buy anything from the States, and if I sue anything from the states you can be damned sure I didn't pay for it, such as Cable, I sue my internet connection to suply my TV.

Music? Nothing past 70ies.

Food? I hate fast food.

Cloths? Roots is Canadian, otehr then that it comes from japan, china or Tiwan.

Goods? Computer From japan, otehr then that it comes From Sony Canada.

Movies? Your blockbusters make me want to puke, theya re AWFUL.

Propaganda? I just said Iwas against your Culture, and aaginst your views.

I may hear your propaganda, but I sure as hell don't agree to it.

If anything you are Dependand on Canadians.

Our Lumber, 90% of your oil comes from Alberta, Our Electricity along the West and the east (Down to vegas and Wasinton D.C.) Youi even pump some of our water for FREE and then say "If you stop us youa re going against our growth as a country and thus our enemies"

Anyways the States Reign will only last for maximum another 15 eyars, I'v been to China for 2 Weeks, and from the GLIMPS that I saw there, China is the Next World power.

90% of our oil is not from Canada... Here are the top five countries (out of 15) we import our oil from as of July 2006. Besides, what is Canada going to do, stop exporting it? LOL!

Crude Oil-
CANADA 1,624 (Thousand Barrels per Day)
MEXICO 1,561
SAUDI ARABIA 1,264 1
VENEZUELA 1,191
NIGERIA 1,014

Petroleum Products-
CANADA 2,113
MEXICO 1,709
VENEZUELA 1,467
SAUDI ARABIA 1,313
NIGERIA 1,073

Otherwise, as Soleran said, you're one angry anal dude.

You still import more from Canada then from Saudi Arabia or any other Country.

So It may not be 90%, But it is more then a fifth.

And when we do stop exporting it to the States, and use it for our own use instead of importing it from Venuzuala, 1/5 of your resource will be gone, pricees will Go way up in your country and thousands apon thousands of people will be stranded. Public transport? Sure, at what costs?

Everythign will go up.

No, not a fifth either, like I said above, I posted the top 5 out of 15.

Canada will not stop exporting it to the United States. That is not how the world works, Canada is in no position to just say "Ok, we're done and we're doing what we like." Besides, Canada depends and needs that income I'd suspect.

Anyhow, tell your country to bring back 'The Kids In The Hall' though, that was something decent to come out of Canada, unlike Alanis Morisette.

Jim carrey
Tom green

Should I go on? All came form Canada.

And Sure, I don't excpect Canada to stop exporting Petrol to the states, but you never know.

Go on, name everything that came out of Canada, I certainly do not hate Canadian culture or Canada for that matter, I'd like to visit up North one day.

Not certain about some on the things you posted, but Superman is definitely not Canadian, Superman has never said "Listen eh". One of the creators Joe Shuster was Canadian by birth from Russian & Dutch parents, but both he and Jerry Siegel came up with the idea while growing up in Ohio, USA.

Anyhow, Borat gets my $9.50 when it opens.

how exactly did we get from a talk about Borat to a petty argument between America and Canada

I dunno but this would be a perfect time for someone to post the 'Blame Canada' song...

just a suggestion.

Quick recap:

1)Nichole: said that if America had been made fun of, the shit would hit the fan.

2)Evil Dead: gave her reasons (I believe he was being liberal with sarcasm) why it wouldn't happen.

3)Robtard: (yea, I know, 3rd person) agreed with Evil Dead.

4)Koala Meatpie: said he hated America and proceeded to trash it.

So yea, I guess you could blame Canada as RZA suggested.

Yeah and remember...

'They're not a real country anyway'

WAWAWEWA!!! Please, for to make hand relief.

sexy time!!!!

The man behind Borat, Ali G etc etc is just to good. I love it make more of it.

If someone wants to do one of the USA (Hello Team America) I say great it's already been done and that made me laugh as well.

Are you typing in Borat-speak?

doesn't happen because everybody wishes they were America. Everyone is so jealous. They want our movies, our music, our celebrities......hell, even our Levi jeans. Sure, Osama Bin Laden doesn't like our political views.....but he bought every Whitney Houston cd (read last week or week before's issue of Time) and can sure as shit tell you who Brad Pitt is.

You know who has one of the strongest cinema? The French.
Food? Italian, French, Greek, Spanish, Middle Eastern, South American, West African, Chinese, Japanese, Thai...

all those come before American.

American political system is bad - that doesn't mean that Americans are bad. In fact a lot of them are very sensible, and polite, and open to suggestion.
A lot of them know how shitty their country's political figures and system are, and what they are doing to other countries.

America is beautiful land, it has great people, but it is a huge corporation lead by very greedy people.

And that is what a lot of people hate, as opposted to Americans, or what America stands for.

Nichole: said that if America had been made fun of, the shit would hit the fan.

and therin lies the irony...given that it IS America that is being made fun in the film...even if Borat Sagdiyev is meant to be from kazakztan

Canada is a very nice country. America is a very nice country. America is simply more powerful and its culture is more known around the world. Don't take it as an offense, Canadians. It's just fact, whether you happen to like our culture or not.

And the reason for that is because America is the aggressor in many many situations and places, while Canada is not.

Who around the world hates Canadans? And then compare that number with the number of people who hate Americans.

I'm sorry. Please elaborate. You didn't really say anything there.

whos everybody?

I find that funny as hell too. Most other countries think America is the sh!thole bully, but they love our culture.

every other major country. The Asian countrie's go so far as to have bootleg rings of knock-off American merchandise.......all others just take whatever they can get of our culture. Michael Jackson.......he's more loved in Europe and Asia than he is in America......yet has never recorded an album on either continent nor released an album either place that was not produced and distributed by his American label in America first. Hell, the prime minister of Japan went apeshit over getting to see Graceland on his trip to America last month he was such a huge Elvis fan. Our celebrities are so huge over seas from you guys watching our films, they get paid millions upon millions of dollars to shoot 30 second commercials.

I know Deano lives in the U.K. so I'll direct this to him. Take a poll......walk down the street and ask people, "do you know who Julia Roberts is?"....and "Do you know who George Clooney is?". Niether have ever made a British film. Strictly American. In return, tell me who the biggest film star in the U.k. is that has never made an American movie and I'll walk down the street asking people if they've ever heard of them...............we'll compare results.
