Many Canadians have been wondering what will happen when the US sets it's sights on Canadian resources. When crude prices exceed 100 dollars per barrel the tar sands will begin to look very appealing. Suppose Canada decides that it will demand (which is our right) what it wants for that oil? Our fresh water supply is already under attack. How little will it take before american troops show up to 'restore order' in our sovereign lands. Already it is a fact, little known by Canadians that the US has never officially recognized the sovereignty of our northern waters. (This is so that they can take their nuclear subs under the polar ice without question.) We are basically a defenseless nation. Our military is laughable -our pilots litterally have to take turns flying the handfull of aging f-18's in the air force. We have relied on the umbrella of american might for a long time and the Canada - US border is the longest undefended border in the world. The illusion of the friendly giant has been shattered. It is cause for rising alarm amongst more than a few of my countrymen.
