State Department: No secret plan to invade Canada

NBC News:

The U.S. and Mexico are not secretly planning to invade Canada, a State Department spokeswoman confirmed to laughter during a daily press briefing.

Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland was taking questions from journalists about its activities Tuesday, which included a meeting between Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Mexico Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa.

Follow Ian Johnston on TwitterShe was asked about “a signing ceremony” with Espinosa – what was being signed and why was the ceremony not open to the press.

...snip...

The journalist asked, “This isn’t some secret thing … to invade Canada or something like that?”


Once again, the Obama Administration shows pre-emptive weakness in Foreign Policy. Where's Republican leadership when you need it?

Liberals always let these kinds of things go too far, when the cost of taking appropriate action, and our losses, are higher.

If we allow Canada to expand and extend its influence in world affairs, then when the time comes to put them down, the cost will be much higher.

It would be better for all of us to have that invasion plan in place, and to execute it sooner than later. It's only a matter of time before we'll have to do it anyway, and if we do it now, the cost in lives and ammunition will be much lower than it will by simply dithering, waiting, and looking for "peaceful solutions' which are in essence a capitulation to Canadian perfidy.

Canada threatens everything we are and stand for, and they have their plans in place already:

Welcome to the General Headquarters of the Campaign for Canadian World Domination! Your future tyrants are General Claire and General Jenny. The Generals are Canadian chicks who are taking over the world and re-designing it to suit their aims.

We will accomplish this goal by:

• The systematic destruction and sublimation of all opposing our inevitable Canadian reign – and the polite, yet horrifically brutal, control of our future territories of conquest.

• Infiltrating the USA and through a cleverly designed plan, destroying it, and using its resources for our own purposes.

• Demonstrating to the world that Canada is the final and ultimate power.

• Decontaminating the world of Non-Canadian influence.

• Reorganizing a New World Society of Canucks to suit our loving, kindly, peaceful and diabolical aims.

They ALWAYS pick the Alliance (first clue of evil). I was threatened with flaming pine cones when I told them the US was going to invade and confiscate their maple syrup stockpiles.

Don't let that 'loving, kindly, peaceful' facade fool you. They're heartless, cold-blooded killers. They're also infamous for their corpse camping. Apparently, this gives them time to get drunk on crappy beer and sing silly songs.





Damn...I miss them.

It's all zerg rushes without securing graveyards, fighting on roads, and don't get me started on the seige engines!

...war-mongering basement dwellers is no reason to bag on the Horde.

And...years ago, we ruled our server. We also loved our Alliance foes for their determination. It was 3 to 1.
