We totally prove how cool Canada is in this thread
Was Canada mocked one too many times at the last UN meeting/G20 powwow? Because they seem to be satisfying a serious manpower inferiority complex with plenty of…blimppower. The floating objects are NOT blimps, says Hybrid Air Vehicles, the company that makes them and is selling 45 to Canadian flight company Discovery Air—they’re lighter-than-air vessels. But they look pretty blimpy to us. And combined with the Canadian military’s recent purchase of a prototype stealth (wait for it) snowmobile,

Canadian independence was a gradual process that evolved over time starting with federation in 1867 and ending with the Canada Act of 1982 establishing Canada as completely independent from the United Kingdom except for the shared monarchy. At any rate the Canadian born and Canadian appointed Governor General (currently David Johnson) is the real head of state, he/she just acts in the name of the King/Queen of Canada (currently Elizabeth II). Any actions performed by the Queen or the Governor General are done only on the advice of the elected Canadian government.
Canadians don't even know their own history ....

Canadians don't even know their own history ....
In 1930, a mere nine years before the outbreak of World War Two, America drew up proposals specifically aimed at eliminating all British land forces in Canada and the North Atlantic, thus destroying Britain's trading ability and bringing the country to its knees.
Previously unparalleled troop movements were launched as an overture to an invasion of Canada, which was to include massive bombing raids on key industrial targets and the use of chemical weapons, the latter signed off at the highest level by none other than the legendary General Douglas MacArthur. In 1935, America staged its largest-ever military manoeuvres, moving troops to and installing munitions dumps at Fort Drum, half an hour away from the eastern Canadian border.
It was from here the initial attack on British citizens would be launched, with Halifax, Nova Scotia, its first target. 'This would have meant six million troops fighting on America's eastern seaboard,' says Peter Carlson, editor of American History magazine. It would have been like Verdun,' alluding to the brutal conflict between German and French troops in 1916 which resulted in a death toll of 306,000.

I love Canadians but they have always seemed 'uncool' for some reason. I think it's the slow speech that gets me. That may not even be a real thing just my perception.
