Our resources are our resources, period...and if they benefit our economy...so be it...it's not like America to be any less capitalistic, imo...in fact, you should applaud such things in the world.

This is a very interesting statement...it reminds me of the high school bully that would steal lunch money from the less physically adept students. Usually those types wound up either becoming the sort that could never hold a job or just got a more or less permanent room at the local prison.

Have you noticed the direction of the exchange rate recently? rotf
As F'd up as it seems, you guys picked your side a long time ago, you think that will be forgotten? All B.S aside. Not only did you cater to the British, but half of you subjected to the French....... And we all know what the US thinks of the French, right?

Furthermore, no one would do anything about it. Even by 2050, the rest of the world combined would not be able to take on the US in thermonuclear war - and thats if they even were willing to do that to save Canadas freedom.
