Wanna talk war eh?

Well last time I checked we only lost 1 war and that was your Revolutionary War (this is lumping together our time as British North America and as Canada, as Canada we've never lost). We did beat you in the War of 1812 when you invaded, I believe we set fire to the White House, among other places in Washington. Vietnam didn't work out very well for you either.


Oh, and joke all you want about our navy, we have some good ones of yours

Quote:
This is an actual radio conversation between a United States Navy aircraft carrier (U.S.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower) and Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October, 1995.

CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision.

CANADIANS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

AMERICANS: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

CANADIANS: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.

AMERICANS: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS, AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH...I SAY AGAIN.....THAT'S ONE-FIVE DEGREES NORTH....OR COUNTER- MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP!!

CANADIANS: This is a lighthouse.


Lastly


I know this is all in good fun
