I agree with the poster. UCAS is so much more catchy than "Americanada".

Why even bothering to mention Canada? It's not like they'd add anything useful. Just stick another star or two on the flag. Or declare the whole thing a territory or protectorate, whichever one it is that pays taxes but has no representation.

If you need to mention mountyland, why not use the marketing style: USA*

*now with Canada

USA: now with real maple leaf flavour!

~J

...USEh

New America! Now with Canada, for all your smuggling needs.

or

America! Now with 20% more terrorism.


It'll be fun when the border falls. All i'm sayin'

Polar bears are terrorists, don'tcha know.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go use some "hacking tools" to figure out what's wrong with my network.

~J

Polar bears and all them silly little immigrants that the Canadian guv'mint has just been letting in over the last few years.

And Canadians.

I, for one, welcome our new Canadian Overlords with open arms, eh?

...actually it's a secret plot by the US Government so when they institute Mandatory Conscription, to send more troops to Viet...er...Iraq, there will be no place to run to.

Though I wonder, what exactly are those people protesting? I can't tell from the picture where that is, but I'm guessing it is in Canada.

there is currently a fear among the consertive base in the USA right now(real or imagined), that the US, Canada, and Mexico will form a north American union. Like the euro union.

some feel that the SPP is the first step twords this.

then there is also talk of the amero

Thats just like in one of my ideas,

wana hear? sure ya do.

See the North America gets its act together and makes. The AU we already have the EU and then the rest of the world can be the FU I think it works well. we can get Australia and Israel and a few other nations like them to make the OU. (Other union) If we have too

With NAFTA and the formation of the EU it's not completely unfounded, but Canada has enough trouble stopping Quebec from seceding, I can't see them managing to form the United Canadian American (Mexican?) States.

I blame the New World Order.

For Everything.

Who, Woodrow Wilson? The League of Nations may have flopped, but "despot" is probably a bit harsh.

~J

Oh I don't know about that.

Last time the US invaded Quebec we got our butts kicked.

That's only because the gummint stopped Maine from dealing with Quebec. If they'd just let the war go on like the state declared it, there'd be no troubles.

Interesting. And it's always nice to see that everything ain't so rosy across the pond in good ole U.S. of A. Maybe if there's enough shit on their own turf maybe they would leave the rest of the world alone. Wishful thinking maybe...

Wow... Can I say that there is a lot of ignorance about north american politics (and especially Canada politics) going on in this thread?

I don't blame anyone, it's probably due to what major networks news channel are telling you.

Ok, where can I start... ?

First of all, that flag comes from the Montebello summit that happened last week here, in Canada.

The participants were:

-Stephen Harper (Our Canadian Prime Minister)
-George W. Bush
-Felipe Calderon (The mexican president)

And there was also a videoconference with several big enterprises CEO's such as Walmart, GM, GE, Exxon-Mobil, Lockeed Martin and a lot of others...

The big problem (and why there was a manifestation):

The total secrecy of the content of this meeting.

Some people say that this is totally against the democracy for our prime minister to meet such representants of other countries / enterprises without the subject to be exposed to the public.

I don't know how to say it in english but in french, we say "À huis clos" and this is against our constitution and "La charte des droits et libertés"

On a personnal note, I tend to agree with the manifesters but wasn't among them.

Also, for the ignorants of the current canadian politics, there is no risk of Quebec seceding from Canada in the near future... that is soooo 1990's ^_^

For many reasons...

First of all, the main political party that supported the secession of Quebec is losing popularity every day... they lack the support of the population since another political party (l'action démocratique) is growing in popularity in Quebec.

and also, there was in the 90's a really huge wave of immigrants from all around the world that got their citizenship and guess what? They almost all were taught (by the federal government) to vote "NO" to the 1995 referendum because it would put the country in havok and such...

Guess what? It worked...

I omitted to introduce Mr. Bush as he is probably the most known person in the entire world.

...

If I added a declaration for G.W. Bush, it would have been:

"If you don't know who he is, you must live on another planet"

Consider this everyone's one warning in regard to personal attacks, flameing, etc. in this thread.
