dberdinka Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 MEC ain't the deal it use to be, bummer.... But the liquor at the duty free is still a steal! Maybe Sumas will once again be a bustling hub of Canadians buying dairy products. Goddamn Cheeseheads! Quote
John Frieh Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 I predict all CDNs are gonna drive across the border to buy there outdoor gear at the Bellingham REI... Quote
willstrickland Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Largest deficit in history, dude. Huge trade gap with China + Chinese mass purchase of US debt + non-floating Chinese currency = retreat of the dollar The 51st state is just a peripheral beneficiary, but as usual, not a player of influence or significance End of discussion.

Dru Posted October 8, 2004 Author Posted October 8, 2004 It's only a benefit for consumers. It hurts our exports. (Huge CDN trade surplus might shrink) I know American cheese is cheap, but like American beer, it sucks. Mass produced BGH orange death loaf? No thanks Quote
foraker Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Guess I'm holding off on buying that enlarger timer from the UK. Thanks George.... Quote
nonanon Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Maybe now our brothers to the North can afford to buy NEW submarines! Quote
scott_harpell Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Why... the parasitic leeches would rather sulk under the shaddow of the U.S. while cursing their position. Cowboy up bitches! Quote
cj001f Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Why... the parasitic leeches would rather sulk under the shaddow of the U.S. while cursing their position. Cowboy up bitches! We should charge them for protecting them against the masses of nations enraged at belligerant Canadian behavior! Quote
scott_harpell Posted October 8, 2004 Posted October 8, 2004 Have you seen how many Canadian sites were targets of terrorist organizations? They need all the help they can get. Quote
Braumeister Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 Why... the parasitic leeches would rather sulk under the shaddow of the U.S. while cursing their position. Cowboy up bitches! Are we sure this isn't Greg_W with a new alias? Quote

Ireneo_Funes Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 What the hell do you mean by "cowboy up"? I'm serious; I have no idea what you're talking about. Quote
scott_harpell Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 step up to the plate, whip it out, ante up, fire it up, sack it up... shit like that. Quote
Fairweather Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 How many electoral votes should Canada State be allotted? Will we now have to endure three languages? Will Vancouver be beautiful once again? Will Victoria be required to build a sewage treatment plant? Will highways there now be required to have stripes and reflectors? Monday night... hockey? Does this mean I don't have to hide my handgun enroute to Alaska? Are their cows still mad? Mount St Elias will no longer be the second tallest mountain in The US. How long will it take our forces to put down the counter-insurgency inside the Edmonton Triangle? Quote
Dru Posted October 13, 2004 Author Posted October 13, 2004 You say that like you won't come crawling, begging for some valuable Canadian loonies so you can buy your kid a meal, once the greenback slides to the level of the Turkish lira. Quote
scott_harpell Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Your looney still can't even buy a small pack of fries man. Quote

Ireneo_Funes Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 I thought so too. I recommend immediate bannination of this expression. Quote
JoshK Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 US dollar is falling like a dropped stone on world markets. CDN dollar is over $0.80 US for first time in 30 years discuss. Discuss? Canada's economy is still meaningless on a global scale. How is that? Quote
Dru Posted October 13, 2004 Author Posted October 13, 2004 Actually we are in the G8 and your largest trading partner (ahead of China and Mexico), how's that? Quote
