I’m biased since I live in wcanada.Since about 1875 there has been a naval base in wcanada.Its not huge but I’d bet in ww2,it was equivalent to bases in NewZealand,Africa,Australia.I’m wondering what effect it would have on game if uk started with a base in wcanada?
Esquimalt naval base its called.
Canada 51st state after London falls

@Vance:
Canada 51st state after London falls […] Nevertheless I want to float the idea that if London falls in Global 1940, the Canadian territories (7 IPCs total) should immediately come under control of the USA and the Americans would get that income (which they kind of do in real life actually). It would be historically accurate.
Canada would actually become the 49th state, not the 51st, because the U.S. only had 48 states during WWII. Hawaii and Alaska became states after the war.

(Sidenote - The US would become the 10th province or the 3rd territory. Thanks for the correction!)

Geeze OK I forgot about Alaska and Newfoundland. Let’s just make the USA a protectorate of Canada instead. Hey we could bulldoze Washington DC and make Samoa their national capitol. The world would really be a better place if all American politicians were put on a very remote island.

wait the US isnt a protectorate of canada yet! :-o

_I think only the French-Canadians use mayo on fries. _
Another urban legend….completly false.
It’s a matter of taste not a matter of origins. -
I dunno. My hometown is a mix of old english and old french. In the french town restaurants they use mayo on fries and in the english restaurants don’t. But that is subjective so… Also, I was limiting the domain of people to that of Canadians. It was popular with the local guys I had lunch with in Holland so not merely a local phenomenon.
Now try to tell my poutine is a merely a matter of taste and not origins :-) Real poutine requires cheese curds from Quebec…they are different, trust me…
-
There’s no mayo on restaurant table in QC. You have to ask to get one.
There’s over 15 differents kind of poutine in QC.
Yes it’s a matter of taste. :-o -

The Soviets couldn’t russiafy Afghanistan never mind Canada. Heck, they couldn’t even russiafy Ukraine
Right, poutine is not known as a french dish…… :roll:

If I’m not mistaken, Canada actually a pretty good military presence in Afghanistan. WE ARE TAKING OVER THE WORLD.
and by the way, the best Canadian food item is Kraft Dinner.

That’s because the biggest Canadian stars are Terrence & Phillip.

Canada simply exists because the US allows it. :-D
Canada benefits more greatly from being the USA Neighbor then the other way around.
First and foremost of all the Canadien benefits that Canada gets for being our (USA) Neighbor and one that is taken way for granted is that they (Can.) fall under our (USA) own Defensive Military Umbrella of N.America.Another example- NAFTA- North American Free trade Agreement. This trade treaty actually Hurt the USA more then it helped, Although Mexico and Canada greatly benefited from this.
Another example-proposed Keystone xl pipeline, enough said there. Guess who would buy most of the oil?
What has Canada given to the US?..…Bryan Adams Thank you so very much. :-)
The best reason the USA is better then Canada- Were not Dumb enough to let the French have a chunk out of the middle. Quebec ring a bell

Thats all you got? call me a Republican. Guess the truth hurts.

thats a complement though……

No, my friend, being called a Republican is not a compliment. It is something lower than drug dealer, pimp, supervisor at a call center, or even bank executive.
-
no i ment being called a canadian is a complement.
