What if Canada invaded us?
In order to topple our dangerous and dictatorial president.
And replace our form of government with theirs.
Would you take up arms against them?

3. Perhaps...
We'd use the same tactics we used in the war of 1812 and burn you to the ground again.
Maybe.
You know...

5. Hey man..
Hockey pucks can be deadly.

For an invasion, all we'd need are laser-guided exploding pucks with a Lockheed Martin logo on 'em. We'd be conquering Texas oilfields in no time.

You can't impose Democracy. We'll have to get it back ourselves.

7. We're ready for them here in San Diego, CA
Although we are shielded from the Great White North by a slim three-state margin with only a token military presence, the Unorganized Militia is ready to act in defense of our nation's precious values.

If those Canucks and their proxies, the treacherous Finns, hit our beaches we'll be there waiting with our muskets and bone knives.

:freak:

crap? If not, I welcome our new Canadian overlords.

21. I would defend my country
against anybody that subverts the democratic process...that's why I'm voting Kerry in the Fall.

Seriously, our military is stretched so thin right now and our national guard is deployed outside of the nation it is supposed to guard that Canada might just be able to pull it off.

Also, as major drug dealers, they'd just have to threaten to withold blood-pressure medicine and we'd surrender.

25. Depends. Would we get another Tim Horton's?
Would I have to learn how to say "eh?" Would I have to drink Molson's? Nawww... I wouldn't fight 'em. They're my "neighbor to the south." :silly:

36. Nope.
I would receive them with dancing and flowers. Of course, that is if Bush becomes dictator and elections are banned,not before. Then I would welcome liberation.

37. Invasion will come from the South with the aid of the Chinese.
Sorry. Canada might join from the north, I doubt it. They might take US refugees.
