But if Canada is America Jr, and if Michigan (and Mass. too) are Canada Jrs... woah.

So, one of the rare occasions when Canada actually gains some relevancy from an US point of view is when they start to blow more or less random stuff up?

Sounds reasonable...

Wow this is the most insane but amusing thing Canada has ever done.

Who watches the watchmen?

Canada did also have a guy in WWII that ran around wearing an eye patch, I shit you not. Lemme dig up the link...

No love for Paschendale or the Canadian Caper, then, in terms of Badassitude and Crazy Awesome.

Oh those were badass too, I was just pointing on that example.

And Paschendale inspired a bitchin' Iron Maiden song, too.

Wasn't Hitler scared of the Canadians? IIRC my history textbook said that.

Wait, he's an Oceanic Scientist named "Dr. Henry Poole"? o.0 Let me guess; he works with Herpetologist Dr. Susan Salamander? Is his roommate Mathematician Professor Richard Prime? Did he go to school with Geologist and successful author Dr. Jonathon Cataclastic Metamorphism?

Also, am I the only one who thinks the good doctor has an amazing voice? If this science thing doesn't work out, he could always go into voice acting.

Amusing though this is, the "interview" sounds distinctly...acted to me.

I am disappoint. Canadians should blow more stuff up. It's a huge country and they have plenty of stuff to spare.

@inhopeless: Yep, he served as a messenger while the Germans fought Canadians. In WWI Germans considered the entire country to be elite soldiers.

Greenpeace will stage a flotilla that will occupy the innocent iceberg indefinitely as a protest against the mindless human slaughter of natural inanimate objects. ""Iceberg Rights! Stop Climate Change!""

I think someones government is trying to distract people with a nice shiny explosion so they don't examine certain other activities...

After all, no one can resist staring at an explosion.

The term "Great Man" is disturbingly interchangeable with "mass murderer" in history books.

Yeah, Canadians were basically the Space Marines of WWI.

Germans vs. Britons: Charge, get beaten back, hold line, get bogged down in trench warfare for three years.

Germans vs. Canadians: Get charged, get beaten back, hold line, oh fuck, line broke, shit pants, die.

Arthur Curry was a stone cold killer. He shares a name with a member of the Justice League, and yet he's still the most badass and effective person to bear the moniker.
