Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Hepatitis / January 2005News From The Front
The American squirt gunners are thrashing the Canadian opposition at many positions along the border. Seems the Canadian leadership opted for maple syrup to fill their guns which has resulted in malfunction in nearly 100% of the Canadian weapons. The Canadian fighters appear dazed and confused, defiantly yelling something about "BC Bud" as the American Super Soakers bear down on them in a deadly crossfire of cherry and lime flavored Kool-Aids. A.E. Newman (war correspondent) True North News Report Dateline International Bridge Windsor Ontario Despite the less than accurate information that corporate America tried to use to discredit their adversaries (as seen below), the Yanqui red and green coloured sweet water coalition faced brutal maple syrup action at the bridge early this morning. In a entrapping move meant to draw out the US Squirties, the outnumbered and out-soaker equipped Canucks oozed semi-congealed maple syrup fudge on the deck of bridge, secretly flown in the night before by the Red Leaf Squadron 445 RCAF, out of Bagotville, Quebec, in CF 18A's disguised as Canada Geese looking for a patch of peace. The flood move, first learned in a Hockey rink in Timmins, effectively immobilized the rash invaders. The jubilant Canadian sub-lieutenant who led the defiant stand off by the True North forces at the bridge wondered why the fire-power crazed yanks didn't go all out and use blueberry Kool-Aid, the true WMD of the General Foods arsenal. "They would have had us snookered for sure, right behind the eight ball, know what I mean, eh?" and "The guys would have rubbed it in their hair and lain about like a bunch of BC Budders." commented Sub-Lt. Jammies, a penal battalion regular. He went on to mumble: "Also this here bridge might be too close to Toronto to be using blue, which is the name of a favourite and revered beverage of my guys' youths...which would have shut us down for sure." The ceremonial Colonel-In-Chief of the Read Leafs, Group Captain Waterspider is believed to be stuck in traffic west of Hamilton. The squaddies did finally break out the bud and invited the demoralized and depressed watersoakers over for a toke and a sweet snack of victory! Fudge takes about two hours to congeal properly commented Lt. Jammies. A tactical secret that we relied on heavily this morning.

Now why one earth would anybody, even Canucks, want to fill their pants with maple syrup!!!!???!!!! / Nevermind. // Not sure I really want an answer to that. There *ARE* some things that should remain a mystery. xfish you're practicing information control. and you're believeing whatever that goat-roper tosses out. May be good for office stripes but not action stripes. Up here, we take our Maple Syrup very seriously.

If that's the case, I'll go ahead and ask: Why do you fill your pants with maple syrup? And does it have anything to do with sheep? Don't take me as an authourity on the issue, but I think that in many cases, the squaddies only *appear* to have maple syrup in their drawers. Besides there was the secret element of surprise that nobody on the Kool Aid gang suspected was the plan all along. The goose-sh.t connection that turned it all into fudge on the bridge, trapped your soaker team in their sneaks and made the to your instigator hide his scrawny bones away in the shame of defeat and frustration. You know of whom I speak, the provocateur, the bait tosser...The Goat Roper lies and then runs away.

Not many Americans know that. Yes your economy could overcome that committment, but at what price? Canada's raw material proximity to the USA reduces the impact that China and other developing economies have over the over-spent US economy. The fearful aspect is that the US Americans in various entities throughout the centuries have tried to include the Canadian territory as part of their own. So fearful is rational. Paranoia is for shnooks. And I don't blame the Russians for watching nervously as the old Europe become the new Europe. Ukraine at one time had been a very willing partner to the USSR and their attempt to keep Hitler out, back in '43. Even if the Russians appear to be crude, they have all the resources that we don't and they can ship it to CHINA if they want and that would be that. hanging solid Cactus Jammies Us Americans could always pack up the country and move it somewhere else.

Us Americans have our own view of > how things went, let me know what your commie propaganda mill taught > you, eh CJ Brits are ok by me. Well, for one, it was the revolutionary war in 1777, and the attempted invasions by Gen. Benedict Arnold on Montreal and Quebec. They failed because of a number of problems, including the fact that not even the Quebecquois (Habitants) were willing to join in popular support of the Anti-Brits. The Quebecquois basically ignored them and they went away in the depths of winter. The troopers in the New York Militia or whatever outfit they were then were waiting for pay and were grumpy and did not want to go blowing up a city full of their business customers, as there was lots of trading going up and down the rivers. And they would not have succeeded anyways. Nobody got really whupped except Gen Arnold a few years later. He lost a large number of deserters (Maple Syrup addicts) and deaths due to extreme weather and no food provisions. Talk about priorities, eh? Not everyone can survive on maple syrup alone. Then again there were some rather major war skirmishes along the great lakes with the British and the American Navies doing most of the fighting, followed by invasions of each other's capitols, Washington by sea, and York, by land. These forces all were including Native Nations allies which peed off both the canuck and the Northern New Yorkers and Pennsylvanians (?) no end, and more importantly, their rivals for tribal ownership of traditional regions and watersheds. That was the War of 1812, what we call it, what you call it is I believe the French and Indian War. There were lots of battles Canadians are supposed to know are special in our history like Queenstown's Heights and Lundy's Lane, near Niagra Falls where the invasion forces from the USA were stonewalled. Not whupped. The true whupping in that conflict, was the defeat of Cornwallis at New Orleans where davey crocket gave him a lashin' or whatever those disney guys got you believing back in your wonderbread days. Then there was the Invasion of the Fenian raiders who were actually state Militias disbanded back to the Northern border states after the US-CS Civil War. They were whupped. As usual with most army tactical moves those days, they were stodgey and unpredicatable from either side at any time. cactus jammies lotus lander > That was the War of 1812, what we call > it, what you call it is I believe the French and Indian War. We call the War of 1812 just that. The French and Indian War, on the other hand, was from 1755 to 1764. The title of this war refers to the foes England faced. The Treaty of Paris in 1763 gave all of North America east of the Mississippi, except New Orleans, to the English. The Spanish got all the rest. Western Indians continued hostilities against the Brits for a year after Paris was signed. No "Americans" fought in this war because they still considered themselves British subjects at this time. Geo. Washington led the British troops, in the first battle in the as yet undeclared war, against Fort Duquense. This will all be on the test. rick OK Rick, and wrong century no less, eh? I never did understand what the French and Indian Wars in American versions of history actually were, I guess. Until someone else mentioned the name before me in this string, I had actually forgotten about it, but I may have used the term none the less. I now remember that I once got it mixed up years ago on a test, with the US Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. But I forgot completely about the actual French and Indian war which we knew in Grade 5 history as the Seven Years War and was for the colonies in Canada, definitive, because it stopped French colonial activity in Quebec. The biggest battle in Canada took place for Quebec City in 1755, and was atwixt the French, the British and some irregulars. The Redcoats regulars were supplemented with some American colonial troops. In 1812, the English were busy with Bonaparte in Europe and did not have the garrisons to deal effectively with the American / French liaison until after Napoleon was defeated but it was too late for the Brits in any case. And I'm pretty sure about the Revolutionary War, the 1812 and the Fenian invasion attempts. We have two strikes against me, both short and long term memory loss. What's left now? cheers Cactus Jammies //////////////////////////////////////////////// >> That was the War of 1812, what we call it, what you call it is I believe >> the French and Indian War. [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > rick Hi Paul, The United States bought the Alaskan territories (Seward's Folly) from the Russian Throne in the nineteenth century. That's were I got that Tovarich hat in the family gallery at doc elmo's place, when we were up in Juneau last September That part of the world was previously inhabited for trading purposes by Russian sea otter trappers and whalers, I think. And of course before them, the Innu and the Coast Indian tribes. The British explorers were mostly ocean based, and the interior of BC territory was trampled by traders and surveyors, miners coming later. The British explorers never sailed that far up the map. They were looking for the shortest western sea route between Europe and the Orient. The Russians had already come down the map from their direction and there must have been some detente over setting arbitrary territorial limits, because I don't recall in my limited understanding of why there was no sabre rattling between the Russians and the Brits over this concession. There was a companion drive following that to expand according to the Manifest Destiny edicts declaring that because of the sheer might of the American system it was necessary and natural to move borders up in British Columbia to 54th parallel rather than the 49th. (Oregon Territory) They pretty much did that during the minor gold rushes in the interior, anyways, until the railways came to town, bringing the settlers and the immigrant workers, and thereby keeping American expansionist chances down to a dull roar. Cause that's the way settlements happen. People settle. The Brits claimed the whole columbia river drainage system which comes out at Fort Astoria, Oregon. These claims were all based on which fur trading company with the compliance of State Departments, managed to keep facilities running along the Columbia River. There was some sabre rattling, but mostly a lot of natural disaster avoidance or sufferage. The following was found at http://college.hmco.com/history/readerscomp/gahff/html/ff_003500_alaskapurcha.htm Alaska Purchase (1867), treaty negotiated by Secretary of State William H. Seward under which the United States purchased Alaska from Russia for $7.2 million. The acquisition was made to eliminate Russian influence in the Western Hemisphere and to expand the U.S. territories. Many Americans, including the Radical Republicans, Seward's political opponents, derided the purchase, calling it "Seward's Icebox" and "Seward's Folly." Alaska at the time seemed to be only a great Arctic wasteland. You can find out more about Manifest Destiny and Fifty - Four Forty or Fight at: http://geography.about.com/library/weekly/aa031600a.htm Fifty-Four Forty or Fight! In 1818, the United States and the United Kingdom (controlling British Canada) established a joint claim over the Oregon Territory - the region west of the Rocky Mountains and between 42? North and 54?40' North (the southern boundary of Russia's Alaska territory). Joint control worked for over a decade and a half but ultimately, the parties decided that joint occupancy wasn't working well so they set about to divide Oregon. The 1844 Democratic presidential candidate James K. Polk ran on a platform of taking control over the entire Oregon Territory and used the famous campaign slogan, "Fifty-four Forty or Fight!" (after the line of latitude serving as the northern boundary of Oregon at 54?40'). Polk's plan was to claim and go to war over the entire territory for the United States. President James K. Polk Polk won the election with a popular vote of 1,337,243 to Henry Clay's 1,299,068 (the electoral vote yielded Polk 170 votes vs. 105 for Clay). Through negotiations with the British after Polk's inauguration, the boundary between the U.S. and British Canada was established at 49? with the Treaty of Oregon in 1846. The exception to the 49th parallel boundary is that it turns south in the channel separating Vancouver Island with the mainland and then turns south through the Juan de Fuca Strait. This maritime portion of the boundary wasn't officially demarcated until 1872. The boundary established by the Oregon Treaty still exists today between the United States and independent Canada. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Hope this helped, you see there is a history, unimagined and certainly memorable.
