America seems to get involved in other countries affairs, is this the right thing to do when we have problems of our own, or do we need to control the out side world to ensure our own safety?

The main reason CANADA is so peace full is
#1 it is way up north where it is cold
#2 right next to AMERICA, yo mess with them you mess with us
#3 no real gain in taking it over, not a real resourceful area, mainly food
#4 come on it is Canada, their known to be neutral no matter what, kinda

Really? Nixon and Watergate for starters...

Well, I mean, they were corrupt. Though they did not employ any BS like anywhere else in the world. Current President of Afghanistan, Karzai, his bro is an Opium dealer.

pshhh your frech, you wave the flag before the battle even starts

Lmao. Ethnic jokes (in moderation) are so funny

#3 no real gain in taking it over, not a real resourceful area, mainly food


Besides its vast oil, natural gas, industrial resources that have aided the world for centuries to advance (By the way, the 'amount' is always increasing in Canada, they're still finding more!)
The place is cold and many resources are hard to reach, but in 50 years people will get to them.
By the way, its one of America's largest trading partners besides teeny population, and French Quebec is 16th on the world economy on its own! Thats a *#@$*#load of money for just one province. (California's #6, though )

2. Canada, as a nation, was recognized on July first 1867. Prior to that we were a British colony. Any conflict we took part in would be not be considered Canadian, but Birtish.

America was recognized in 1783, on the peace of Paris by Spain, France, the US, and Great Britain.
The entire argument is lost by saying that -- As the quote we started to discuss was 'Name a country that was not founded on by war'.
Well, then the entire American Revolution is BS. It was all caused by drunk British men.

:S The point is, there aren't many nations that have not been founded by war. If the French had done better, Canada would be different, simply put. Its not like people found Canada, they said it was Canada, and bam. If your going to put it in the context of that the country has to win a war to become independent, then I guess not, Canada was founded peacefully after the British North American Act by that Queen in London... who's name I forgot...

'Sides... We all know America should invade Canada and Mexico

America tried to invade Canada (well what would be Canada) once. Called the war of 1812. They failed. And America is a little different because they called themselves Americans even before the revolution.

We are not conquers? We killed the native amaricans for much land, the British for the new england states and some mexican for texas and Arizona. The real reason we didn't anex all of Mexico, or so I have been told, was the slave issue. The slave states and the non-slave states were even and if we anexed all of Mexico we whould have more slave states then free states...

âI would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasnât lived that life,â said Judge Sotomayor, who is now considered to be near the top of President Obamaâs list of potential Supreme Court nominees. . . .

these are her exact qoutes, but this implies that a "white Judge" hasn't gone through these conditions, whitch is based on race and not so much experience, and also the law is to be upheld by rules, and if you grew up in a dumpster or a rich house, the law is the same

Actually that is only part of the picture. The whole point is that the president was from a free country.

Well, whatever the case -- Canada has had military history. Its not my fault it was an easy pawn and an easy layoff, many other countries were not. Example: America. While Canada was an upkeep cost, America was a profit mine of cheap labor and only trading with you. I still do not believe Canada was founded primarily on peaceful pacts, or that Canada is enough of a country to back up to be a good historical representation of a country that wasn't founded without war. Being a puppet colony state, regardless of wars and then just being granted freedom is more luck and chance that the empire ruling you is weak than it is gaining freedom.

Anyway, Annexing Mexico would not have been good. At that time, America was the white man's land. Mexicans would have caused lots of issues (No offense!) -- also, Mexico would not have been a slave state. It banned slavery, and never was keen to it due to being ruled by the Spanish instead of the Portuguese.

The southern states normaly had slavery, and when the Amaricans moved in it whould have slavery, and probably be in several states tipping the slave balance in the slave states favor.
