Obama administration denies plan to invade Canada

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Rhiannon12866 (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

The State Department is denying that a planned closed-door meeting between U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Mexico Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa is about a secret plan to invade Canada.

Asked why the meeting was closed to press and what the two officials were discussing, a reporter asked: "This isn’t some secret thing to invade Canada or something like that?"

"No, no, no," State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said during a Tuesday briefing to laughter from reporters.

4. That's the silliest thing I've ever heard.

No one has watched "Canadian Bacon." Not even Michael Moore, Alan Alda, or John Candy.

8. Aren't we fat enough down here?

I've been soooo wanting to try poutine for a very long time now. I was contemplating trying to make my own, but I doubt I'd do it right. I'm thinking I need to head to Canada or at least somewhere very close to the US/Canada border to get any.

At first I thought it was the name of an ambassador in Russia, or something. Are there very many people on this planet who actually eat that?

but you had Mother England backing you up, these days, England could not stop Argentina from taking back Las malvinas, er the Falklands.. Not that I would support invading Canada, unless it was to kill that asshole Harper, but then I would rather it be done as a mutualoperation throughotu North America where the common people of both nations cleaned out their right wing. You throw Steve into your ditch, we could throw all the Bushes and the Romneys.

PS: don't me make start singing "the Battle of New orleans." "In 1814 we took a little trip, along with Col Jackson down the mighty mississip.."
