U.S.A. vs. Canada Responses, Da Second Term
  
   
  
Kilgore Trout once said in the Charlie Brown & Snoopy vs Wallace & Gromit match that:  
 .....this is a very subversive plot to recreate the American  Revolution so the British win. Instead of George Washington, you've  got a monkey. Instead of freedom from oppression...... you have a  paltry monetary reward. By watering down the fight, you want to see a  largely American audience vote themselves as losers in this sick  little game. Hands up, who did it?   Dollars to donuts one of you Canadian bastards did it.   - Kilgore Trout  
Keith, confused emperor of Penguins, also said in the Letterman vs Leno match that:  
 Normally I base who I vote for off of which commentator I like  better, and now you've got a Canadian vs. a French guy. You  bastards.   - Keith, confused Emperor of Penguins 
Canadian Bastards, huh?  My Name is Eric and I AM CANADIAN,  dammit.  I submit that our dear Kilgore Trout and this so-called emperor are  the actual brainchild of this match.  Jordan Clark and Niall  Fitzgerald?  Nothing More than mere aliases.  This match is purely an  effort to spearhead a total annihilation of my proud country that I  reside in.  Seriously, how else to deal with all the anger that Canada has won  the honour of the "Best Country to live in" ahead of the United  States (this year being the exception)?  What about the theory that  several Americans (Kilgore and Keith included) that Canada was behind  the Independance Day Invasion of 1996, given that no  Canadian City was ever destroyed of scratched?  How about the  accusations that Canada has been trying to brainwash all Americans by  producing such crappy shows as "Ewoks", "Droids", "Second City  Television", and producing such seductive singers as Celine Dion,  Shania Twain, and Alanis Morrisette.  Yes, Kilgore and Keith are behind this no doubt about it.  They must  be stopped, NOW!!!  Let's just hope my CSIS pals get rid of  this threat before this Grudge Match reaches its final, and very  messy conclusion.  If this gets a Grudgie, then my efforts to contain this threat were  not in vain........

Ugh, this is getting out of hand!  If I don't step in with  some objectivity, this is likely to go the way of the Hatfields and  the McCoys.  
Comedy: North of 49, we have the Montreal International Comedy  Festival, "Just For Laughs."  Off the top of my head, I can name Alan  Thicke (Canadian), Mike MacDonald (Canadian), Bowser and Blue  (Canadian), and Glen Foster (Canadian).  The only American I can  recall is Richard Jeni, and while he is entertaining, he can't  match the all-mighty Mike MacDonald.  
Against the Soviets: The Americans waged a Cold War with the "Red  Menace."  Canada just waged an 8-game hockey series in '72, which we  won.  Any Canadian can tell you where he was when Henderson scored.   Can 7 USA 2
I could go on, but it would just be so terribly one-sided it  wouldn't be pretty.  It reminds of TMNT vs. MMPR.
- My name is D-kun, and I!  AM!  CANADIAN!
My cousin who resides in Ontario, Canada told this story the last  time he visited the states:  A recent hot topic in Canada was that of allowing woman to serve on  submarines.  Apparantly it was an issue of debate for awhile and then  eventually it was passed.  Then there was talk of making  accomadations on the submarines for the female officers.  Only  problem is Canada doesn't own any submarines.  Any country that would waste it's time on a useless topic like this,  or any country that does not own a submarine for that matter, would  stand no chance against the most powerful nation in the world: The  good ole US of A!

This will be the "Grudge Match That Never Ended".  Here's why... 
A few hours before voting concludes, projections from exit polling  will have the U.S. winning.  However, some late returns from Manitoba  will give Canada a slight edge over the U.S. and Canada declares  victory.  Voter News Service goes into cardiac infarction wondering  what went wrong.  The U.S. will demand a recount.  That takes place  and the U.S. wins.  Canada will demand a 2nd recount, this time  Canada wins. 
The U.S. will blame the voting page on the Grudge Match site as  being too confusing and demand a paper recount.  Al Gore arrives to  take over the situation.  A Canal+ news team in Montreal videotapes  several loose chads on the floor of the Gore room.  Then a CNN camera  films Canadian X-Man Wolverine's claws covered in loose chads.   Wolverine proceeds to eviscerate the entire CNN crew. 
Three weeks later, after endless appeals and with no end in sight  to the matchup, the contest winds up before the Jedi Council, the  only impartial panel left in the Grudge-iverse.  "Canada, the winner  is," announces Yoda.  Canada wins, but America bitterly concedes,  claiming that because Episode I was filmed in another British  commonwealth the ruling was biased.  The angst is unleashed 3 months  later when "South Park 2" opens in theaters, featuring the new hit  song "Blame Australia!"
- Chris 'Jedi' Knight blames it on the rain... yeah yeah!

Then we burned  it ...  and most of Washington, under the command of William Lyon McKenzie  who was insane and hammered all the time.  We got bored because they  ran away,  so we came home and partied ... go figure ... 
 
-  Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered  to Germany. 
 
-  We have the largest English population that never ever  surrendered or withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere. 
 
-  Our civil war was a bar fight that lasted a little over an hour.  
 
-  The only person who was arrested in our civil war was an  American mercenary, who slept in and missed the whole thing...but  showed up just in time to get caught.

First of all, I would assume that everyone with weaponry would be  involved. Every cop I know would be running over mounties with their  Crown Vics. Secondly, everyone in the US would be too pissed to lose. They have  to put up with canadian coins sneaking into the US and then not  working the the vending machines! Third: Listen to the Patton speech. And  did Jimi Hendrix ever play the Canadian National Anthem?

You guys don't know how close you are to the truth.  Here, come  closer a second...  They're here already.  They've started infiltrating.  Here in Ann  Arbor, just outside Detroit, it's hard to tell if you're still in the  United States.  When people drink beer, they drink Molson or Labatt.   And I swear I've heard Detroiters say "aboot."  And don't get me started on the hockey thing.  Guard your doors!  Watch your backs!  The invasion is already...  SHIT!  RED ALERT!

On the baseball shirt in the American picture did you  notice "Atlanta" at a certain angle looks like "Alberta"?   Interesting isn't it?

Personally, if Canada has infiltrated the Joe Louis arena in Detroit, 
the battle is over.  Red wing fans are very protective of thier 
territory, and in place of octopi, the canucks will find themselves 
being hurled on the ice by said fans during the Red Wing playoffs.

HotBranch! is canadian. I think that's all I have to say.
- Critterman, the almighty canadian, eh?
The USA has to win.
U.S. military morale is at an all-time high.  Why?  Army Chief of 
Staff Gen. Eric Shinseki ordered new 
hats for everyone for the expressed purpose of raising morale.  
Not just new hats, mind you.  New berets.  
New black berets with a spiffy blue patch, as a matter 
of fact!  (Did you catch that?  A blue patch!) Now THAT'S a 
morale booster!
Sorry, Canada, you might as well go home.  There's no way you can 
beat a military wearing new black berets with blue patches.

Someone said that "Canadians Don't Make Good Terrorists".
Actually we are Terrorists.  We make great artery-clogging-super-
fattening bacon and cheese.
All in an effort to incapacitate the Americans with the 
dubious "Heart Attack".
So next time you are awaiting Heart Surgery, think about the Proud 
Nation in the North who poisons you 24/7/365!!!
- Echo Boy
   Look, Paul and John can argue all they want about such silly 
factors as weather and government, but we know how unimportant they 
are, eh? All that matters in Grudgematch is one thing -- does Canada 
have the curse of the French or does it not? 
   Well,for advice on all things French, we must consult the Germans, 
those experts on rolling the French into a pile of merde. According 
to the great Prussian (and therefore German) king Frederick the 
Great, the plays of Shakespeare were "ridiculous farces worthy of the 
savages of Canada."  
    So according to an expert on giving the French whoop-a$$, Canada 
cannot win. End of story.

Everything we need to call the match is right here in the 
scenario.
Ahem
What do we learn about Canadians? That they talk 
funny. What do we find has already happenned? They've conquerred New 
York, New England, and the Pacific Northwest.
And that's it. All 
that we need to figure out that Canada will gain much territory in 
this conflict, but won't be able to totaly defeat the US.
I'll 
explain. Cannadians talk funny, and they've conquered areas where 
people talk funny. The Pacific Northwest, where everyone talks either 
like Bill and Ted(tm) ("Whoa, dude, like totaly excellent maple leaf, 
man.") or in ComputerNerdese, (C://com/weareruledbybeavers.isp/gif), 
New England, where nobody says the letter "r" (Pahk the cah in the 
Hahvahd yahd), and New York. (Hay ro babety, meme su, ina su, ina 
silawa hua la hutin burwati!) So Canadians are only able to win 
against those who share their malady.
Based on this, I predict that 
Canada, In future, while include Minnesota, (Oh ya, you bet, doncha 
know) West Texas, (Hey boy, you done git that durn Beaver off mah 
land!) and large areas of the Deep South. (Y'all gonna invade us now, 
Sugar?) For the record, Louisianna is able to put up three seconds of 
fighting, as they both talk funny and are French.
But, as most of 
the rest of the country has no speech peculiarities, that's as far as 
the canadians get. And now, not only are the tourists not able to 
understand the citizens of Ottowa, but the citizens can't underatnd 
each other.
Meanwhile, in what's left of America, the ACLU goes out 
of business, having no one who's "different" to "protect."
And there 
was nuch rejoicing(tm)...

Well this one kept me up all night... not because it was a hard 
decision, but because it seemed the US would beat Canada with little 
difficulty and I really like Canada.  The US' primary advantages are 
as follows:
- The US currently has a Republican President, so you can bet 
that money will be thoughtfully redirected to the all-important 
pointless war, as opposed to such silly budgets as "education" 
or "medi-care".
- US military messages would be quicker and faster, as every line 
would not be punctuated with "eh."
After a while, it seemed the US beat Canada completely, total 
annihilation.  Then, I suddenly realized something - the Bush 
factor!  As we've all seen, George W. Bush barely has the 
intelligence to outsmart the 57 varieties of Heinz ketchup, much less 
a military general. Add to that these other pros:
- A surprising amount of US soldiers would rebel, and join the 
Canadian side.  After all, who would want to wipe out the source of 
Canadian bacon and 'The Kids in the Hall'?
- If the Mounties joined in, it would be a hands down victory - 
mounties are completely indestructable, if Dudley Doright is any 
indication.
- As before with the Vietnam war, people all over the country 
would draft dodge into Canada... to be drafted into the Canadian army.
Take that, eh.

Hmmm...there is only one way to decide the winner of this match.  
With the American armed forces out of commission, the USA will need 
to pull out their big guns.  You know who I'm talking about, the 
superheros.  Let's get down to it.
On the American side:
Captain America,
Superman (fighting for Truth, Justice, and the American way),
the Justice League of America,
the Justice Society of America,
and just about every other hero you can think of.
On the Canadian side:
Alpha Flight
Don't know who "Alpha Flight" are? With names like Talisman, Box, and 
Puck, you can tell that these guys are a bunch of Canadians.  
Also, "the Flight" is made up of former enemies of the group and 
original members.  "A house divided cannot stand."  I think that's 
how the saying goes.  No doubt they'll be spending their energy 
arguing about their colored money.  (Why is their money colored?  As 
far as I'm concerned, money should be one color: GREEN!)
Anyway, Superman can pretty much destroy them all.  If not, the 
Captain America and the rest will get the job done.  Hell, you know 
Supes is just going to take them all down.
It might've been a different story if Wolverine had stayed in 
Canada... nah.

If Canadians are so good at hockey, how come they didn't win at the 
end of Mighty Ducks 2?
- Michaelagelo's David
Come on people. What's the point of prolonging the inevetiable. Canada will not win. Less people live thier lives in cyber world there. And I'm sure quite a few who do are serious hackers and not concerned with something this trivial. We in America, however, seem to be overly concerned with the trivial and underconcerned about the really important things. Example:
"Your father wants you at his deathbed"
"As soon as I put in a vote for America on Grudge match."
This is a no brainer. I don't think many Candians would say that. 
They'd bring their dying father a beer. 
- Headbanga
Hmmm.... Who would win, the USA or Canada?  How does one choose?  As 
a male in the death grip of his hormones, I will defer to the country 
that has the hottest (and somewhat more morally flexible) women.  In 
this case, Canada wins in a walk.  Two words: Pamela Anderson.  Two 
more words - Natasha Hestridge.  Barb Wire and the chick from the 
Species movies (both of whom I've seen naked, yeah, that's the 
ticket).  The Tommy Lee tapes show that Canadian women are obviously 
superior to American women in the ways that count most; thus they are 
better able to distract the men of the US armed forces while their 
Canadian brethern, beefed up from a Bob and Doug Mackenzie diet of 
back bacon and Labatts beer, wade over the border and Rush to Triumph 
and victory.  Looking at the women of the great white north, the US 
males will find themselves suddenly and inexplicably unable to walk, 
a defeat guarrenteed by conservative Republican's stubborn refusal to 
allow homosexuals in the armed forces.  Oh, the humanity!!  
- Vomit Death
The Most Powerful Nation on Earth vs. any other nation?
I think the term we're looking for here is "foregone conclusion."
Cripes-- we had to willingly accept the negation of naval, air, and 
missile SUPERIORITY just to pretend to approach a level playing 
field.  The US still has the  most, best trained, and best equipped general armed forces in the world.
Regarding our winter skills, if you'll check your Winter Olympics 
history, you'll observe that not only has the US earned more gold, silver, and bronze medals than Canada; the US is statistically more likely to win the winter gold than any other medal, and Canada is more 
likely to win the silver or bronze.  Which means the US is more 
likely to place FIRST and Canada is more likely to come in SECOND or THIRD.  In a war between the two countries, even if Canada comes in second, it loses.  I won't even bring the Summer Olympics history into 
the discussion because the disparity between US winners and Canadian 
losers is downright alarming.  Oh, and regarding the question of winter driving, I have two syllables for you: HUM and V.
Marines vs. Mounties?
Isn't that the same as John Rambo vs. Dudley Do-Right?
Or should I say Dudley Doo-Doo, which is what Canada will do when the 
US invades.
The Great American Melting Pot vs. A few French-Canadians and a 
bunch of British Canadians.  Aside from Never Bet on the White Guy, and Unless He's Jewish, the French-Canadians are clearly a weak link.  
Besides, Canada will be too distracted dealing with The 
Rage of American ecoterrorists, themselves pissed off at the blatant rodent abuse required to initiate Operation Beaver, to defend against American troops.  This match is over, and over fast.
- Obscured Underlord, wistfully remembering a girl from British Columbia
The U.S. is like raging bull in a china shop. Sure, sure. You're strong, you've got lotsa power. Oh, you're so tough. Yada, yada, yada.
Canada however, prefers to lay low, observe, and strike with tact. We're more like a matador, ready and willing to take down the bull.
And there's more of us than you think. Actually, the battle is almost over before it's begun, seeing as we began our invasion decades ago via the entertainment and sports industries.
To name a few: Michael J. Fox, Dave Thomas (not the Wendy's guy), Dan Akroyd, Mike Myers (well, just _piles_ of people from SNL, which was put together by another Canadian: Lorne Michaels); and in sports we have the majority of the NHL. Maybe not teams, but lots of individuals.
Add on the fact that if the U.S. ever started to edge too close to victory, the rest of the world would join the fight and pummel the Americans back down into the Heart[Attack]Land, and you'll clearly see there's no way for the Americans to win.
To quote Canadian satirist Rick Mercer, from his rant "Impressions of Washington": "We're bigger than they are and we're on top. If we were in prison, they'd be out bitch."
Canada wins over U.S., pure and simple.
- Rhodin, the Crazed Canuck
Wasn't this already covered in Canadian Bacon?  And haven't at least 
3000 of the voters at this point pointed that out?  Well, since I can't 
recall the ending to that illustrious movie (although I am inspired to 
vote Alan Alda for prez in 2004!) here's some relevant information, 
drawn from some of the most important areas of life:
Beer: Canadian beer ain't the be all and end all of booze.  Sure, 
American beer is regulated to be weak, but might we mention the fine 
highlights of the rest of the world?  I'm currently in Ireland 
"studying" (i.e. reading the historical plaques on the pubs) and I'd 
get my ass handed to me in a second if I said Labatt Blue was better 
than Guinness.  And I'm a GIRL.  Believe me, there ain't nothing 
compares to a Perfect Pint (tm) of Guinness, the only beer it takes 6 
steps to pour over five minutes.  That reminds me, I need another pint.
So beer is out of the question as a factor in this fight
Sports:  Hockey?  Pffah.  Lacrosse on ice.  It only appeals to bitter-
beer-swilling couch potato types.  I have never seen anyone good-
looking at a hockey game.  At least America has a wider variety of 
games to watch - baseball, basketball, football, even kickball.  
Remember kids, curling is something you do to your hair.  It is not a 
sport.
Now on to more serious criteria - culture.  No, wait, when we've got an 
abusive PM and an alcoholic First Family running the shows, this is 
anything but serious.  But now, who would you want to support?  Who 
does the world know?  Whose culture is currently running rampant over 
the native ways of every place from Belfast to East Timor?  That's 
right, America, in the form of Coca-Cola, McDonald's, and Starbucks.  
What memorable cultural exports have come from Canada?  The US is 
pumping out so much of itself every day in the form of prepackaged 
meals, television, and knickknacks that "essence of america" fairly 
drips from the pores of American tourists.  Canadian tourists go to 
extreme lengths to show that they're not American, but that they need 
to do so proves the cultural dominance of America over the rest of the 
world.  So say the nukes go off and we're all citizens of "one nation, 
under mushroom cloud."  American still wins, because every other spot 
in the world is slowly turning into clones of it.  I pity the fools who 
hold up Canadian culture as a shining example of the way we should be.
Now, time to stop typing and start drinking in earnest 
- Tae Mae Shu
The States has absolutely no chance in this war.  Sure America would 
quickly advance into Canada (assuming, and this is a pretty weak 
assumption that your armies aren't fooled by a bunch of Canadians in 
ponchos claiming that Canada is actually Mexico).  However the 
devistation Canadian covert agents could cause to America would be off 
the charts.  Remember Canadians actually have knowledge of other 
countries besides our own and could easily pass our selves off as 
Americans simply by pretending to be dumber and more ignorant.
Not only would the States be involoved in a guerilla war in a hostile 
landscape (how did that Vietnam thing go by the way?) but we must not 
overlook the fact that Canada is one of the most highly respected and 
beloved nations on Earth while EVERY OTHER NATION ON EARHT (except 
MAYBE Puerto Rico)HATES AMERICA.  No before you Americans think that 
everyone loves you guys I'm going to let you in on a Canadian 
secret... whenever we travel anywhere we wear Canadian flags on our 
clothes not out of National Pride but so we're not mistaken for 
American's and treated poorly as a result.  So while we're wondering 
unmolested through your cities causing chaos the rest of the world 
will be jumping on you guys like fat kids on Doritos
- Chappy, Canadian Hockey Hooligan
The U.S. will always be one step ahead of Canada for one simple 
reason.  The Canadians will take twice as long to paint cool slogans  
on their bombs like "Have a nice day" since it must be done in 
English AND French.  Hell, we'll even have a first-strike advantage!  
Even IF the Canadians are GIVEN the opportunity to strike back 
they'll start an internal war just trying to figure out if the first 
missile should come from an English province or French.  It'll be 
Canadian slapping Canadian until the next scheduled hockey game which 
which can be viewed only on U.S. stations since all of the Canadian 
players will have defected for the $10 million war bonuses they'll 
receive to "Join the winning side!"  They'll then find that all of 
their beer brewers have been strategically bombed into fermenting 
pools of nastiness (or were they that way already).  Infuriated, 
they'll decide to march into the U.S. thoroughly ready to argue, but 
decide to have breakfast first only to find that while they were 
slapping eachother swarms of SEAL, Special Forces, and Marine teams 
had swapped out the national supply of Canadian bacon for some real 
bacon.  With spirits crushed and all that is truly Canadian gone the 
United States of America will dominate the northern region and 
find "endless" supplies of trees for useless paper products.

If the battle is to be won and lost in the cold, wet, filthy 
trenches, Canadians will be planting Maple trees all the way down Interstate 5 to Tijuana within  a couple of weeks. I see the second wave of RCAF Avro Arrow II's cuising to a simple  victory in the air. (Yah, like we really scrapped the program and destroyed the planes - 
Tee Hee Hee) On the ground, the American soldiers uniforms will be pulled over their heads in 2 or 3 punches leaving them to suffocate in the dank smell of themselves.*

Well, the French have come in for the usual amount of insults in the 
commentary.  Since I was the unfortunate soul who defended them in 
their original match here, who better to provide the required 
insight on which side here benefits from the influence of the 
French--and to plead my case anew.
I should have seen the proper argument before.  It isn't their 
battlefield leaders who have made France a military laughingstock:  
it's their political leaders.  General Napoleon would have made France 
master of Europe, had not Emperor Napoleon wrecked things with his 
constant warmaking, plunging them into appalling guerrilla conflict in 
Spain and marching them into the arms of Russian winter.  Idiotic 
governmental policies left France ill-prepared to fight World War I, 
and outright defeatism cost them World War II before the first German 
crossed the frontier.  Even Charles de Gaulle, savior of France as a 
general, came to grief as its president, driven out by a wave of 
student protests in 1969.  Yes, Euro-hippies sent him running.  
Pitiful, no?
So, the rule appears to be that French political leaders spell 
doom.  Now, get out your trusty almanacs, and look up all the U.S. 
Presidents with French names.  Zero.  Now, look up all the Canadian 
Prime Ministers with French names.  Let's see:  Laurier, Saint 
Laurent, Trudeau twice(some people never learn--then again, look who 
Americans have managed to re-elect), and Chretien.
I think this explains a lot of history--and with Chretien the current 
PM, all doubts evaporate.
Canadians can look on the bright side:  at least the conquering 
Americans will bring real football with them.

Seeing as Canada vs. the US breaks down into which cultural diet 
produces the most Noxious bodily gases, I have just one word to say. 
Poutine.
For you ignorant people who live outside of Canada (and areas of 
Vermont, which are already under our control), poutine is french 
fries smothered in cheese curd and gravy. This is a part of the 
Québecois diet.
Ornery lumberjacks with gas like that would be a force to be reckoned 
with.
Also, while the majority of this match will be conventional warfare, 
the cooperation between the two countries in the past has led to the 
establishment of nuclear silos in the Northwes Territories and 
Nunavut. It would not be a matter of difficulty for our equivalent to 
your navy SEALs, the RCMP, to capture these. 
Combine nuclear capabilities that we can link up more quickly due to 
a well-built cross-country fibre-optic network with the fact that our 
army is actually better trained, the winner becomes clearer and 
clearer.
And on a final note, our constant exposure to American television 
makes it far easier for us to decipher American dialects than it 
would be to figure oot what we're talkin' aboot, eh?
- Saganaki
Whenever I travel in the US and Americans find out I'm from Canada, 
they always say: "Canada, eh? You know we could invade your country 
any time we want."
No you can't! We've spaced our cities out far too cleverly for your 
armies to find them. You miss Montreal by five kilometers and you're 
screwed all the way to the polar cap!
- John Rogers
The Canadian army might not have the same strength as its US 
counterpart. Our air force uses old Labrador helicopters that do just 
like the dog of the same name: they head straight into the water. We 
freely admit that our armed forces are about as threatening as a 
chihuahua that left its dentures at home. However, always keep in 
mind the slogan of the Canadian Football League: OUR BALLS ARE BIGGER!
If movies and television have taught us nothing else, it's that 
the underdog with the biggest heart (or the biggest pair of brass 
ones) always triumphs in the end.
That means that you'll be our bitches in the end, eh?

In the furure, the history books will all be clear as to how the 
Canadians failed. They ignored Minnesota. As the Canuck forces occupy 
the northeast and northwest courners of the US, and rally their troops 
to defend against the assault from NY, Jesse "The Mind" Ventura 
activates plan CARP, Canadian Annihilation Retaliation Push. Within 
hours a force of millions storms Canada, armed with the highest 
Midwestern military technology. No quarter is given as forces advance 
in tractors and combines. The Canadian Rear Gaurd falls back 
repeatedly, eventually hooking up with a small group of Canadian Elite 
Gaurd (also known as Mounties). After a series of skirmishes at 
Winnipeg, the Canadians abandon the city, hoping to draw the Minnesotan 
forces int a wild enviroment ehich will overwhelm them. This backfires, 
as the Minnesotans dismiss the snow and ice as just another slightly 
warmer than usal day, some even removing their jackets.
Over the next month, forces rally across the US and cut a wide swath 
through Canada, spearheaded always by the Minnesotans. The most famous 
battle later became know as the encounter at Whitehorse, where a small 
Minnesotan scouting detachment became enraged and slaughtered almost a 
twelfth of the entire Canadian miitary in under an hour. The only 
Canadian survior of the incident was later quoted as saying, "Minnesota 
Nice became Minnesota Slice'n'Dice, eh?" After this battle, the leader 
of the Canadian forces issued a complete and unconditional surrender, 
beeging to be saved from "The Elite Minnesotans". Thus, the US won, and 
someone at the white hous got the job of figuring out how to add stars 
for the 50 new states carved out of Canada to the flag.

I will approach the problem systematically.
Symbolism
The symbol of Canada is a leaf. The symbol of United States is an 
eagle, an image ripped directly from the Iroquois, who were roughly 
the Native American equivalent of Rome, which was known for butt-
kicking until the German and British barbarians arrived (much like 
what happened to the Iroquois, but why dwell on that?). The eagle 
clutches thirteen arrows. While it is easy to break one arrow, 
thirteen (or in the case of the Iroquois, six) at once are 
impossible. Obviously, the United States has a cooler symbol, but 
considering they wiped out the former bearer of the symbol, the 
effect isn't quite so grand.
United States: 2, Canada: 1
Military
The United States military is obviously superior, but the loss of 
nuclear capabilities is obviously going to hurt. Nevertheless, a near-
infinite supply of firearms of various qualities can be obtained from 
certain schoolchildren, so the United States retains a decided 
advantage here. In a stalemate situation, Canada will run out of 
ammunition first.
United States: 5, Canada: 2
Leadership
The United States is at a hideous disadvantage here. While the 
Canadian Prime Minister is possibly not the Canadian's best choice 
for the confrontation, this pales when compared to the idiocy of 
Curious George "Dubya" Bush. There is a significant possibility that 
Bush will manage to bobble the military into another country, forcing 
the United States to split its military.
United States: -95, Canada: 3
Propaganda
The United States has the best propaganda in the world. No other 
country even comes close; Canada, in fact, contracts out American 
public relations companies when it needs propaganda work done. A 
quick-thinking American leader (obviously, Bush doesn't qualify, so 
maybe a General or Secretary of State or someone will do so) will 
merely need to call up Burston-Marsteller, Shandwick, Hill & 
Knowlton, Communications International - Porter/Novelli, Edelman PR 
Worldwide, or one of the many other PR companies to whip up the 
American population into an anti-Canadian frenzy. Meanwhile, the 
Canadians will receive propagandistic messages such as "Commit 
Suicide for Victory over the Yanks!", which will undoubtedly result 
in mass civilian depopulation in parts of Canada.
United States: -45, Canada: -7
Para-Military Forces
Canada has hockey fans. Everybody else in Canada is roughly as 
threatening as Waldo, and dresses the same, too. The United States, 
on the other hand, has Rednecks, Hillbillies, Fundamentalists, and 
Ghetto Trash. The Republicans in the United States has ensured that 
every single member of these independently operating groups has full 
and total access to major weaponry. In peace time, this is rather 
inconvenient, as sometimes altercations happen involving normal 
citizens, but during wartime these people will be attacking anyone 
vaguely foreign-looking, in this case Canadians. Since these forces 
operate independently of Curious George "Dubya" Bush's direction, 
their activity somewhat ablates his negative effect.
United States: 30, Canada: -2
Presence of Deleterious Population
Canada has a larger percentage of French people than the United 
States, but the United States has a much larger population of 
Trekkies. Of course, these Trekkies are often found near hot chicks 
in chainmail bikinis and/or abbreviated sailor suits, the United 
States only has a relatively minor penalty for possessing them.
United States: 5, Canada: -5
Alcohol Quality
Canadians may make wuss beer, but next to American beer it almost 
tastes manly. Fortunately for both countries, no country that can 
REALLY make alcohol is participating.
United States: -10, Canada: -10
Obviously, as a patriotic American citizen, there is only one option 
for my choice to be.
Now… Where did they put that "Both Mangled and Killed" button?

Just a few points before I get into the simulation, so those of you
still making popcorn don't have to rush...
*A-hem!*
Disclaimer: I apologize for all the people I will insult in this, I
don't know you personally, and being as stoned as I am,  I'm having
an out of body experience right now, so I can't be held responsible
for my actions. I do not own USA, Canada, Steven Spielberg, the NHL,
Microsoft, the terms Rage, Babe Factor, Coolness Factor, Eye of
the Tiger, Canadian Bacon, Ghetto, Nanook, or the American Way.
I also believe that this whole thing is just a lawsuit waiting to
happen. No actual beavers were hurt in the making of this, although
many were drunk. For a full list of rules please send a self
addressed stamped enveloped to Steve and Brian's home address. Some
restrictions may apply. If you are, or are related to a beaver, or
are over the age of 4, you are ineligible, but you receive the
consolation prize of reading this and seeing Canada get beat to a
bloody pulp.
Ok then, let's piss some people off...
USA vs. CANADA!
The Rage- USA gets a good start by landing the RAGE. Getting
attacked by a bunch of hicks and their trained attack rodents they
barely tolerated in the first place can give a country a reeeeallly
bad start to their day. Plus, at any given time, 1 in 4 American
women is having a 'Bad Hair Day', and 1 in 8 is having PMS. Adding
Canada into the situation can't work out that well....
The Babe Factor- USA again! They have babes, beaches and bikinis, as
well as highly paid supermodels. Canada has below 0 temps- good for
sitcom sets, bad when semi decent girls are covered by more than 8
layers (shudders). Instead, Canada receives the Babe-The-Talking-Pig-
Factor for their bacon, proving that American Domestic movies stars
look incredibly better than Miss Canada (Note to whom- you might want
to see a dentist to fix that horrible 3 foot gap in your teeth...)
The Coolness Factor- America slams the 'Three is a Charm' level of
debating, as they alone spend billions of dollars in ads to control
society's view of 'Cool'. Control over Coolness = Absolute Power*.
Canada- close, but no banana, as they again get a runner's up award-
the Frigidness Factor. Who actually likes to have icicles growing
between your big toe and the 'this little piggy stayed home because
it was too damn cold out'?
*Note: USA has proven to be omnipotent at setting fads... however
they also came up with 'The Macarena'....
Eye of the Tiger-
The band 'Survivor'-American.
 Rocky- American.
 Rambo, the guy who beat Rocky- American.  'Nuff said....
Americans also have 'The American Way'- Life, Liberty, and the
pursuit of Sexy women.
Hm... I've never heard of 'The Canadian Way', but I have a feeling it
would be something like this-
"Gee Nanook, I don't know what it is we hit, but let's fry it up and
serve it with some grits..."
And now... the narrated web-simulation of the War of Nations...
Specialized Canadian B.A.P.s (Beaver Attack Planes) pour carnage down
upon the doomed below.  Built with a single platform and powered by a
beaver in a gerbil wheel using hockey sticks as propellers, they
hoist their main artillery- Heat Seeking Beaver Launching Leaf
Blowers.
In a few minutes, Times Square is decimated.
By this time, the Air Force now has the ability to launch fighter
planes, after all the experience they had in Independence Day (ID4),
with problems like destroyed bases and incredibly armed alien ships.
They believe these B.A.P.s are toast.
In a few minutes, the Air Force fighter squadrons are decimated.
Of course, all this is being broadcast on CNN so that everyone can
plainly see what's going on. Immediately after having found out that
the U.S. has declared war, all the draft dodgers jump up from their
couches and (being as dumb as they are) run to Canada.
In a few minutes, the draft dodgers are decimated.
But wait! Isn't the U.S. losing to Canada a sign of the Apocalypse?
Watching on his Live WebCast, Bill Gates rises from his leather chair.
In a hellish voice, he pronounces to himself,
"The time has come..."
A ball of fire seems to consume him as he transports himself to the
Capitol.
"Now all shall bow before me!  MUHAHAHAHAHAHAW!"
By this time, the Canadian forces have reached Washington because all
the main action has to happen there. Not knowing what to do, the
B.A.P.s fire at Bill Gates, who has just revealed himself to be the
Anti-Christ on live television. All the conspiratists around the
world yell out, "I knew it! HAH!" and then yell at their wives for
not believing them.
As the B.A.P.s fire their deadly HSBs (Heat Seeking Beavers), Bill
Gates merely sneers and laughs a throaty laugh. It appears that he
has finally hit puberty. He stretches out a hand and-
In a few minutes, 90% of the B.A.P.s are decimated.
"Come to me, my followers!" the Anti-Christ (hereby known as AC)
proclaims.
Instantly, droves of computer geeks rise up in arms, armed with
pocket protectors, and begin the march to Washington D.C.
Meanwhile, the NHL is incredibly pissed at being interrupted and all
the players, American and Canadian alike, go on strike for more money, and form
the NwiHL, or No Way In Hell League. Unfortunately, hell is currently
on earth, and the AC (always being picked last in gym for hockey),
decides to have his revenge.
IAFM, the NwiHL is decimated.
Meanwhile, back in New York City, people slowly crawl out of the
cracks. It appears that only the black gang members and hookers have
survived. Instantly, they form an alliance and lead an assault on
Canada, the African Americans because of their dead fellow gang
members, and the hookers because the war was 'bad for business'.
The AC has now decided that because he owns the souls of all
politicians and lawyers, he should kill them to reap his harvest.
IAFM, the Capitol ID.
Beavers still run rampant among the streets and just as the AC is
about to destroy them, a mighty hand comes out of heaven and rains
fire and brimstone down on him, and hands down a court order. A
mighty voice booms out-
"MICROSOFT IS NOW FINISHED!"
The AC screams a girlish scream and yells out "NOOO!!!!".
IAFM, the AC ID.
Then, among the ashes of Washington D.C., a leader is born, and a
tall massive figure and highly nasal voice cries out-
"Fellow Rodents! Why are you here under the thumb of the Canadian
Government? Don't you realize your power? We can rule the world!"
Rocky and Bullwinkle pump their fists in the air, calling for order!
"Follow us! And all will be equal!"
The screech of thousands of beaver's voices cry out as one, as they
flock to this new charismatic leader.
"Sig Freud! Sig Freud! Sig Freud!"
The Rodent Nazis have been born.
Having been stripped of their only natural resource, Canadian
officials run around, not knowing what to do. Then, like a mighty
swarm, the gang members and hookers cross the border, armed with
nuclear weapons. Canada is brought to it's knees, and all the ice is
melted from the nuclear fallout.
Then, in Washington, the geeks all arrive en masse, only to see their
leader fallen and the carnage around them. They declare war to
be 'bad', and become the 2nd Hippies. Sitting in a circle, they all
begin singing Kumbaya.
It appears that the war is over.
"CUT! That's a wrap!" Shouts Steven Spielberg. It seems that he now
has another war movie under his belt, and the special effects will
just blow people away! Unfortunately, everyone on his crew, save one
camera man and himself were killed.
The blacks now refer to themselves as African Canadians, and along
with the hookers, they set up Canada World (TM)- a theme park that
has animatronic beavers, drugs, and expensive women. (See catalog for
details)
So in the end- Canada nuked, Blacks have a new Ghetto, A new Steven
Spielberg blockbuster, the purging of Bill Gates, all lawyers and
politicians dead, and the return of Rocky and Bullwinkle. And the
downside is- what?  Ultimately, the American Way has prevailed, so
just remember-
Abraham Lincoln didn't die in vain.
He died in Washington, D.C.
Thank you. Thank you. I can't wait to receive the Pulitzer.
