@aequitas:
Groß Admiral Karl Dönitz for loosing the most men on one Battlefield then any other in any other Battlefield during WW II. Worldwide.
And
General Lord Cornwallis for loosing a whole Continent.
You’re wrong on 2 counts Aequitas.
Canada exists today. It’s more than HALF of the North American Continent, that Cornwallis ‘didn’t’ lose.
yea but it’s the wrong half. The half where its’ always cold, few resources, French, and full of complainers…
So Cornwallis did lose.
I stand erected Herr KaLeun
had always heard 5’2" however with a little research I now see that 5’2" in french is not the same as english
wonder if that’s why they switched to the metric system? well that is another research project that I will have to remain ignorant of for now
Napoleon would be my choice for “best” loser. How about Chingis Khan for best winner? Not only did he get involved in a land war in Asia he conquered most of it.
Best beer around and ice wine for those who like it sweet. But first and foremost is Canadian Rye, best resource around. Oh yeah, and only one of two industrialized nations with a triple A credit rating. The other one lost two world wars and still kicks ass on the world scene economically.
Garg, congratulations on becoming a Liaison! I have a feeling you will do GREAT things for the community! It will be such a joy to see your brand of humour, but now you will have to be more …… nuanced with your differing opinions vis-a-vis mine. Who am I kidding! Have at it! En garde!

I think you mean it’s the YOUR WRONG half.
What am I saying half for? More like Quarter. Either way you’ve got your facts wrong again, and your culpability is on file with public record F O R E V E R.
AND LOL AT FEW RESOURCES! Your state buys 80% of it’s electricty from my province which has 1/10th of the population LOLOLOL!
You spanish speaking Yankee glutton!
If anything, Canada’s problem is too much resources. Makes us lazy as it’s too easy to sell raw materials versus actually making stuff with it. Ship iron to Japan to purchase it back in the form of a lexus….
Garg, can you convince the natives over there to allow the pipeline through? A few of my buddies make pipes out east here and are laid off for a spell. We have some diamonds, nice and shiny just in case a bit of bribery is required….!

Nope. The “half” which represents USA allowed that part of the world to be the dominant power since 1900. Canada on the other hand concentrated on heating and blankets, as well as bad hockey teams and Canada Dry……
Yea we got the much better deal, so own up to it.
This “My country is better than your country” smacks of playground antics.
This “My country is better than your country” smacks of playground antics.
USA was always more dominant than Canada. Simple fact. Always was, always will be. It’s just too cold for people.
LOL
for 15 trillion more dollars of debt. I’m sure we could do better.
Lets see here… in a fact regarding which power is the most dominant…of which Canada is not even in the top 10 since 1900…
Somebody decides they can’t refute that claim [edited by GG], and come up with debt comparisons?
Major LOL…
If you really want to start your losing battle, maybe you should make a new thread?
[edited by GG]
LOL…If you can’t refute, i guess that is what you might post.

We were having a nice little chat until somebody decided to start slagging one country in order to make their country look better. IL, you want to argue that the US is more dominant well nobody is arguing against that, in fact, that is not part of the thread. But BULLY for the US of A, #1 soon to be #2 GDP, #1 military soon to be bankrupt. Bully for good ole uncle sam!
Now can ya quite hijacking this thread with your anti-Canadian sentiment?
Garg, IL is arguing that the US is more dominant than Canada, he might as well argue that hot is warmer than cold. I think we can both agree they have a larger military and GDP, one would hope with 10 times the population. I like the US of A just where it is, below us……on the map of course.
Thank you Malachi.
Can Worsham have his good thread back now?
I was enjoying people’s thoughts on the world’s best commanders who lost.
I picked Hannibal Barca but seeing what others are saying is forcing me to learn more about the rest of them, I still naturally know I am right but it’s nice to know this via a crucible of fire that this place is!
Garg, IL is arguing that the US is more dominant than Canada, he might as well argue that hot is warmer than cold.
It’s no argument, just a fact. And it’s not anti-Canadian either. There is a reason why we got more population, more wealth, more everything.
Just learn to accept it.
:roll: Who is not accepting it? IL, you are just hijacking a thread and I wish you would stop. Do you really need to state the obvious that your country has 10 times the people so therefore it is larger and more powerful? [edited by GG]
This thread is not about US position in the world, that thread had been resurrected from the dead where you also hijacked it insisting I am anti-american. If you insist on thumping your chest and proclaiming your country is better than mine at least do it in the correct thread.
Topic: US versus China for world position

Please stop hijacking threads MR. Liaison.
Ugh, maybe I should just abandon this thread……
[edited by GG]
The point was that Cornwallis got stuck with the wrong half, the larger half but nonetheless the half that is far less valuable.
