Elvis,
On behalf of Canadians everywhere I'd like to offer an apology to the United States of America. We haven't been getting along very well recently and for that, I am truly sorry. I'm sorry we called George Bush a moron. He is a moron but it wasn't nice of us to point it out. If it's any consolation, the fact that he's a moron shouldn't reflect poorly on the people of America. After all it's not like you actually elected him.
I'm sorry about our softwood lumber. Just because we have more trees than you doesn't give us the right to sell you lumber that's cheaper and better than your own. I'm sorry we beat you in Olympic hockey. In our defense I guess our excuse would be that our team was much, much, much, much better than yours. I'm sorry we burnt down your white house during the war of 1812. I notice you've rebuilt it! It's Very Nice.
I'm sorry about your beer. I know we had nothing to do with your beer but, we Feel your Pain.
I'm sorry about our waffling on Iraq. I mean, when you're going up against a crazed dictator, you wanna have your friends by your side. I realize it took more than two years before you guys pitched in against Hitler, but that was different. Everyone knew he had weapons.
And finally on behalf of all Canadians, I'm sorry that we're constantly apologizing for things in a passive-aggressive way, which is really a thinly veiled criticism. I sincerely hope that you're not upset over this. We've seen what you do to countries you get upset with.
All the Best,
Yukon

since you think we should have pitched in against Hitler in 1939, I will assume you also think France should have pitched in against Saddam....
after all we're allies.
that kind of talk isn't allowed on here. I made it clear that wasn't my intention.
maybe.
fair warning.

how eloquent and creative
Canada's military deployment reached corps-level strength for the invasions in Italy in 1943, and Normandy in 1944. You know around that time frame America came in and showed everyone how it was done.
The United States did not have a smooth entry into the war against Nazi Germany. Early in 1943, the U.S. Army suffered a near-disastrous defeat at the Battle of the Kasserine Pass in February. The senior Allied leadership was primarily to blame for the loss as internal bickering between American General Lloyd Fredendall and the British led to mistrust and little communication, causing inadequate troop placements.[10] The defeat could be considered a major turning point, however, because General Eisenhower replaced Fredendall with General Patton.

The attack by 21st Panzer Division up to Sbiba was stopped on February 19 by elements of the British 1st Infantry Brigade (Guards), the 2nd Battlion of the Coldstream Guards

In your dreams buddy: The americans got their asses kicked at first. They learned hard lessons, it were the germans that showed the Americans how it was done:

Battle of the Kasserine
"The Battle of Kasserine Pass took place in World War II during the Tunisia Campaign. It was, in fact, a series of battles fought around Kasserine Pass, a two-mile (3 km) wide gap in the Grand Dorsal chain of the Atlas Mountains in west central Tunisia. The Axis forces involved were primarily from the German-Italian Panzer Army (the redesignated German Panzer Army Africa) led by Field Marshal Erwin Rommel and the Fifth Panzer Army led by General Hans-Jürgen von Arnim. The Allied forces involved came mostly from the U.S. Army's II Corps commanded by Major General Lloyd Fredendall which was part of the British First Army commanded by Lieutenant-General Kenneth Anderson.
Significant as the first large-scale meeting of American and German forces in World War II, the untested and ineptly led American troops suffered heavy casualties and were pushed back over fifty miles (80 km) from their positions west of Faid Pass in a humiliating rout. The battle has been described as when the amateurs first met the professionals. In the aftermath, the U.S. Army instituted sweeping changes from unit-level organization to the replacing of commanders. When they next met, in some cases only weeks later, the U.S. forces were considerably more effective. " Battle of the Kasserine Pass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
And it were not the American soldiers but the British soldiers who got the Allied forces out of this mess:

Of course a Canadian would not want US citizens to have guns, there is a risk that we would all just take over Canada ... since even their cops rarely carry more than a stick. But here's the thing, stop being so afraid of us conquering you, if we wanted to we would have already done it ... so stay in your own country and leave our guns alone.
PS: I don't use guns, prefer knives, can kill more people with them and get away with it better.
yukon a question......what the hell has Canada ever invented or improved upon,that has actually helped the world....name 10 things.....Elvis,

so that one battle in Feb of 43 sums up how we did for the rest of the war...plus why didn't you link the rest of the paragraph other then just what fits your arguement
"Slowly the Allies stopped the German advance in Tunisia and by March were pushing back. In mid April, along with British General Bernard Montgomery, the Allies smashed through the Mareth Line and broke the Axis defense in North Africa. On May 13, 1943, Axis troops in North Africa surrendered, leaving behind 275,000 men. Allied efforts turned towards Sicily and Italy.
"
By May of 1943 Axis troops surrendered....3 months later... I would hardly call that disastorous.
And it had nothing to do with the skill of American soldiers junior, is was bad strategy and tactics that lead to that defeat...General Patton led the war from that point on and I am pretty sure from Normandy on, it was mostly victories
The first introduction with German troops was a complete disaster for the americans. Not like what you said: that the americans would teach the Europeans how it is done. (they showed how it is NOT done). That is the point I m trying to make, not that the Allied forces (americans, british and french) defeated the Germans 3 months after this (because the germans were outmatched in numbers and supplies).By May of 1943 Axis troops surrendered....3 months later... I would hardly call that disastorous
Of course a Canadian would not want US citizens to have guns, there is a risk that we would all just take over Canada ... since even their cops rarely carry more than a stick. But here's the thing, stop being so afraid of us conquering you, if we wanted to we would have already done it ... so stay in your own country and leave our guns alone.

Hang on KK, Canadian cops carry guns. Now even the border folks do....
