In 1867 America offered the Canadians 5 Mallow candy cups for 1/3 of their country. The Canadians made a counter offfer of 5 Mallow cups and 10 packs of beer. Hands were shook, things were said. And they caved in and gave us their entire Country. Unfortunately, there is no legal documentation of the transaction. Attempting to write out an in-depth contract back in 1867 proved to be a very long and ardouos adventure. There was little, if any, good quality paper around during that time .. tree bark was the only known substitute. However, there is one faded picture that is held in the Disney Studio vaults of a handshake between their people and our Heads Of State,.. which is proof enough to this day that we own Canada. It officially became our 52nd State of the Union in 1899. Italy became our 51st State back in 1876 ..but that's a whole 'nother story. Good luck ! :) P.S. Where do you think we produce and drink all our beer ? Our 52nd state, Canada !

Hey, I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader....
I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled....
and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,
although I'm certain they're really really nice.
I have a Prime Minister, not a president.
I speak English and French, not American.
And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'.
I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.
I believe in peace keeping, not policing,
diversity, not assimilation,
and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.
A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch,
and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed' !!!!
Canada is the second largest landmass!
The first nation of hockey!
and "the best part of North America"
And I am Canadian!!!

No canada is not a state of America, but if history would have turned out different when a group of revalutionary force was travel to Quebeck or Mortenal, and then canadians would have help, in theroy canada today would be a state. So in a parell universe, Canada could be a state of the USA

It's not a "state" of America. It's a "country" in North America. A very cool country, both geographically and population wise, the people there are extremely cool! but they'd be pis*ed if you called them part of America!

No, Canada is a country in it's own right unlike the UK which has secretly become the 51st state. Bush dictates what happens and his sidekick - puppydog Blair - carries out the orders.

Yes.
The United States of America is also a "state" or "country" of America. America is divided into North America and South America and the name America is not limited to the US.
Another state government of North America is Mexico.

Just about - By the end of this decade Mexico and Canada will merge borders with the USA and be 'protected' (more like controlled) by the USA's NORAD defence system.
A invisible coup is happening right now.

Not true. Canada has been an independent country since 1867.

Canada has so far resisted American 'globalisation'. Sounds more than good old fashioned imperialism to me. I'm pretty sure Bliar is trying to make Britain another US state though.
