See, we 'Muricans have pride at having thrown off the yoke of our colonial oppressors, whereas Canada only gained independence when Britain allowed them to.

Americans = leaders and action
Canada = followers and wussiness

British-backed Canucks won a few battles while our attention was directed toward the real war with the British. Congratulations on accomplishing **** all.

Nonsense, we defeated your invasion and our colonial administrator ordered the burning down of the Whitehouse.

You mean the British burned down the Whitehouse?

Yes, but our colonial administrator ordered it. There is a debate though if their were Canadian platoons during the raid on Washington.

Anyhow getting off topic so to get back on track. We were talking about ideologies before, so here's my latest thought on UK politics:

I think the best thing that Cameron can do to quell Scottish Nationalism, is to give the SNP more power like the Province of Quebec has with Canada.

My reasoning is this, right now the SNP holds the utopia card in that they can offer the Scottish people a grander vision of an independent Scotland with rolling green fields and bountiful happiness for everyone.

The Labour Party use to hold the utopian card, but because they've been in power, and sold out to get back into Westminster, they no longer have it. (Hence getting wiped out up North)

So I say give the SNP more power to govern, let them engage in the same tax and spend policies that ran the Province of Quebec into the ground. If you give the Scots a true taste of SNP utopia, they may find they don't want it.

Both Quebec and Scotland also have something else in common, theyre both in urgent need of more immigrants, Scotland for example desperately needs immigrants as it has an ageing population and needs to balance its level of pensioners and working age adults.

Edit: can we do Irish politics here too?

i assume by "irish politics" you mean a bottle full of gasoline with a burning rag sticking out of its neck

this is literally akin to bragging about beating up the greatest fighter in the world when he was an infant

anything before ww2 doesn't really count if we're being honest about the situation
