The Canadians were the only ones who gained something out of it
Debt?
Establishing ourselves as good soldiers
A shitload of debt.
And we established ourselves as a nation
The U.S. had more debt
Should I stream the simpsons on Disney plus?
I think that beats being good errand boys.
Yes
You clearly haven't studied the war
Canada has never lost a war so
But without the war, we would not have been able to continue commerce. But we did continue commerce, because we won the war.
Bragging about being the errand boys of the nasty teeth’s while we got full independence.
We have independence from Britain
Just not from the crown
No you don't.
Not full independence then
And not now
The two are seperate
We're monarchists
Queen still has some power
Britain comes to us for help
Mostly a figure head
Exactly. You still beholden to the queen, and we aint.
They also come to us for help.
Look at Crimea
The queen begs us for support
No she doesn't
Parliament does
Yeah they do
Learn the differences
You know what I mean
I bet you don't even know what the Boer wars are
Do I need to?
Yes
Sounds unsubstantial
That was our Vietnam
If it’s not important enough for westciv
But we won.
Legally speaking, they could call all you up for service in a heartbeat. Until you say "You can't do that", then you aren't independant.
