It's good to see that more cultural diversity is finding it's way into these sorts of games.

The Second World War wasn't just won by American Paratroopers, kiddies biggrin:

However, amercians don't seem to have this inferiority(sp) complex that causes us to break out into song everytime an american shows up in a video game.

We don't devote entire threads to the fact that americans are in a video game.

I don't feel the need to get pissed everytime someone disses america? why?

Because every other "western" culture and economic system, including canada's, is based upon america's. Canada's military is a much smaller twin of america's. In fact, nearly every large weapon used by the canadian military is an american product.

So sit back, shut up, and realize that canada is little more then america's 51st state.

Well, SURPRISE!! You americans show up in almost every videogame, so wtf's the fuss about?
I understand the canaucks in this, since its fun to see other people than yanks, brits, japs and krauts in WW2 games for once..

And you say that every "western" culture and economic system is based upon yours?
Let me ask you this; Have you ever been to europe?
No, i didnt think so either..
And ofcourse they use your guns.. Why would they import them from europe, when they can get cheaper stuff from just across the border?

Face it, youre a narrowminded person who think you know whats best for others, and that you and only you are allowed to say what you think about other nationalities etc..

God, you make me sick..

[Vance_died!]

I smell burning.





OH SHIT!!!

[MinorThreat]

Never been to europe? Do you know me?

I've spent over a month in austraila/ new zeland, and england... each.

...and several individual trips to canada

I know that while european's yearn for all things american, they also harbor resentment towards americans.

You've also totally missed my point about canada's millitary importing american weapons.

My point is that if canada had half the balls they'd make their own.

Speaking of the canaidan millitary not having any balls I found out some little facts.

Roughly 22,000 canadians landed in normandy. of them like 1200 died (1 in 18 like the guy said before) on june 6.

(btw... 60,000 americans landed with approx 6000+ dieing, or 1 in 10)

But after june 6 the canadians really showed their stuff... between june 6 and june 20 around 350 canadians died. in the same time period OVER 3000 americans died...

WTF WHERE THE CANDIANS DOING?? sitting on the fucking beach drinking margaritas?

Canada exists soley for 18 year old americans to drive across the border to drink and go to titty bars.

I guess you've never heard of a company called Diemaco, eh? They make all Canadian Forces small arms. Their located in Quebec. As for larger weapons, why would we make them when its cheaper to buy them? I don't see the connection between making weapons, and having balls either. Can you explain this to me?

Well since your so great on facts I'll let you in on a couple others. Canada's population during WWII was 10 million people total. 1 Million fought in WWII. That means 1 out of every 10 person in the entire country has military service. THta doesn't include pretty much everyone else who worked on the homefront for the war effort.

I dn't know how to answer your question. So because less of us died (which isn't a good thing to you) that must mean we didn't do what we were supposed to? Can you explain this to e as well?

The only answer I can give to that is

1) there were less of us, therefore less people to die
2) we fought with the british, so when the Canadians fought, the British fought as well, which probably resulted in British deaths. Perhaps if you added these two numbers together, plus all the commonwealth dead, you'd find your magic number?
3) maybe we're better at getting out of the way of bullets, shrapnel, mortars and artillery fire.

Read the post... i didn't say small arms did I?

Canada not making their own large weapons has more to do with the fact that canada is america's 51st state.

Here's a vietnam fact for ya... while canada offically remained neutral in the war, they cut off aid to north vietnam... sent billions in aid to south vietnam, and exported food and raw materials to america... who was the buyer? the pentagon. Hows that for spineless?

[Maplegyver]

of coures Americans will be put into vedio games before Canadians.Partly because there are more gamers in the states intrested in playing as themselves right?
you clearly are a dumbshit thinking that Canada is the 51st state oOo:
we dont have a collosal military that dwarfs all other countries by 2x because we dont get into colificts every decade.
Theres a little thing called IMPORT/EXPORT
why make your own items when a country BENEATH you has the greater resources for the item you want to purchase. so by you calling Canadians people without male genitila because we dont make our military equipment therefore i can call all the other countries that import our goods pussies because they dont have as many trees or freshwater as us.
what county keeps bitching for fresh water? what country sent its ships to our north for water?
so its aboot time you stfu eh?

[MinorThreat]

Natural rescources are luck of the draw, as is rain. Some people get it, some people don't. Plus we've only got one state stupid enough to run out of it, and they're about to break off and float into the pacific anyway.

Manufactured goods are a measure of a countries enginuity, power, and wealth.

Your right, canada doesn't need a large military, because america has one... how does it feel to have your national security provided by another country? More proof canada is america's 51st state.

[Maplegyver]

your still not answering my questions.
becasue we dont maufacture our small arms we are dickless.
yet americans and countries all over the world import from us.gives me the right to call them pussies?
Would you have the gust to go to a Canadian ww2 vet and tell him he did jack shit in the war?
and i guess all the countries thet import from the USA are dickless and thier 52 second 53rd....states ect?
do countries thatimport from Canada make them extra provinces?

[ninty]

20,000 Canadians fought in American Units in Vietnam.

[MinorThreat]

1) I never said canada dosen't manufacture their own small arms. I don't know whether they do or don't.

2) Every country imports and exports raw materials, this is merely because of geographical locations. However, Canada's reliance on america for large, complicated pieces of military hardware is a metaphore of canada's reliance on america when dealing with complicated issues of all types.

3) Everyone's participation in ww2 was important and appreciated. Canada's veterans don't deserved to be degraded because of their spineless countrymen. However, I believe it is true that an allied victory in ww2 was just as important to canada, as it was to america. That being said, america made a MUCH greater investment in lives and money in the war then did canada. The FACT is that ww2 could not have been won without american involvement in it. On the other hand, ww2 could have been won without canadian involvment. This shows that Canada has, and still does rely on the united states for their national security. i.e. canada is not a self reliant country.

4) There are other countries that rely on the united states, and are basically american "puppet" states... in that list i would include, canada, mexico, south korea, and israel, among others. However just because a country imports goods from america, i would not consider them a "puppet" state, China and russia are excellent examples of this.

5) while there are countries that export goods from canada, the u.s. included, there are no countries that depend, or have ever depended, on canada, for their very survival.

[MinorThreat]

Canadian volenteers numbered between 12,000 and 20,000... with less then 100 casualties... WTF were they doing??

http://www.vwam.com/vets/canadians.html

[ninty]

Again, you equate deaths to accomplishing something. Why?

[MinorThreat]

It's a fact of war... the units that are involved in fighting the longest... and who have fought in the most difficult circumstances, take the most casualties.

i.e. the guys on the frontlines die faster and lin larger numbers then the guys hanging out in the rear.
