"self-evident and obvious to everyone that that is the case"

Now you are the judge and jury speaking for everyone. The UK did make that claim with out some pipsqueak representative claiming it was obvious.

Two world wars bailed out the UK. It was too big to fail or would rather have the US stay out?

You obviously harbor some sort of hatred or jealousy toward the USA.

Where would socialist Canada be with out a rich capitaist neighbor to feed off of?

The United States exported $160.9 billion in goods to Canada last year. But imports from Canada totaled $211.8 billion. The bottom line: a Canadian trade surplus (or American trade deficit) of $50.9 billion in 2002. It marked the third straight year in which Canada's advantage over the U.S. was more than $50 billion.

Canada can put every under producing citizen on the dole in the form of free medical care because it sells its natural resources to the USA.

Meanwhile you blame the USA for all of the evils in the world. but when a rich Canuck gets sick and their wonderful health care system fails them, they sneak into in the evil USA to get saved.

You can keep your beer, oosiks and those damned noisy geese that shit everywhere.
