Of course they did. They couldn't do it individually so they had to
ally with each other.

But in the end both the Brits and the Canadians lost to the U.S.. Or
did you not read that in history?

No, they went home and partied, seeing no opposing force of any kind.
Canada retained Canada....or didn't they teach you that in American
History....oh, thats right, they only fed you bull****.LOL.
Study the battle of Lundys Lane. The American leader was too busy
nursing his hangover to lead his troops properly......

If you are flajim, herring, loogy, GC boater, johnson, topbassdog, rob,
or one of a half dozen others, you're wasting your time by trying to
*communicate* with me through rec.boats, because, well, you are among
the permanent members of my dumbfoch dumpster. As always, have a nice,
simple-minded day.

wear hairnets under their arms.

talent in flajim...you think his wife has the family talent?

It's the French influence...

Actually, I like Canada in general. Lovely people for the most part.

Montreal has ice storms though. Perhaps you can move the women and the food
to nicer weather.
