Can America gain controll of British Columbia to unite Alaska and the Mainland United States?

Question

Canada thinks they have a right to Alaska we must do somthing fast.

Answer 1

People dont know this but it is true. Ive talked to a few B.C and they think Americans are stupid and dont deserve Alaska. They think that America should Cede it and its people to Canada. And any one who dose not belive this needs to look at a mapand call some B.Cers.

Answer 2

Canada would never give up our beautiful British Columbia. Alaska, if it belongs to anyone, should really go to the Inupiaq, Inuit, Yupik Eskimos, and Aleuts. If they don't want it, maybe Russia would want it back.

However, America purchased Alaska from Imperial Russia for US$7,200,000, so I doubt it. And the only reason the US bought it was because they were afraid of us when we announced plans to become a nation.

The British North America Act was announced in 1867.....hardly a coincident that the US puchased Alaska the same year.

Answer 3

Assuming that there's no succesor state to the United States of America, also the entire area and population of the United States of America just disappeared (to another dimension?) making them unuseable and the United States of America can't be revive (the Union of Soviet Socialist Republic for example, can still be revive right now and actually still exist in a different form). A few days (like 3 to 5 days) of confusion will happen, but then a week to a few weeks later things will stabilize and things will back to normal. While it's correct that there will be a period of instability (like wars, panic, etc), it will be relatively quite short. Personally, I doubt that it would took as long as far as years, since the era instability would be relatively quite short. It's most probable though in years, most people will forget the U.S.A. even exist in the first place (unless the mass media continuously remind the world's population). While the U.S.A. is a big and respectable country, people tend to overestimate its importance. Besides, the U.S.A.'s foreign policy tend be dictated more by foreign interest than its own self interest, so even if it's gone, another country will be used instead in its place. Anyway. The businesses that was done by the U.S.A. previously, will probably be pased down to the following countries: Financially (stock market, foreign exchange, etc) wise: U.K.., China, European Union, Japan. Military wise: China, Russia, India, Indonesia, Brazil, European Union. Resources wise: Russia, China, Indonesia, Brazil. Space program wise: China, Russia, India, Indonesia, Brazil, European Union, Japan. Personally, the U.N.O. probably had to elect either India or Indonesia as the permanent member of the security council to replace the U.S.A.. Of the two, Indonesia is much closer to resemble the U.S.A.. Even if India was the one elected, Indonesia still gonna be play a role anyway.

Answer 4

Why do I think you are some dumb **** American Yahoo who could not find his bum with both hands and a map!!!

If as you stupidly suggest America tried to take control of British Columbia not only would they have to fight the Canadian armed forces but as Canada is still a part of the British Commonwealth they would also be fighting the British, Austrailian, New Zealand and most of their other Allies in the current war on terror.

Try and engage your brain before you speak, it might make you seem a little less stupid to everyone else in the world!!!

Answer 5

When did Canada gain control of Alaska? But no, we can't take British Columbia.

Answer 6

this was already settled back in the 1850's... america gaines control of the better half of the area known as columbia and we gave canada the other. If canada wants alaska it can have it but they will have to pay for it like America paid Russia for it

Answer 7

OMG! American expansionism spreads!!! While the US might be able to invade BC, it would not, as to do so would be unjustified aggression against a friendly power and fellow member of NATO. I cannot imagine for one moment that even President George W. Bush in his maddest moments would consider such a thing. But were he to do so, the consequences would be incalculable. Canada is a member of the British Commonwealth and I could not see the other commonwealth countries standing aside whilst one member was invaded. Also France, which is no lover of the USA, might also intervene, having regard to the close links that country has with parts of Canada.

Answer 8

We should buy a corridor to connect Alaska with the lower 48...

If you know the history of Danzig, you'll understand what comes next.

Answer 9

Idiot. You can't even win in Iraq, Vietnam, Korea. Come on up and we'll kick your butt back to Mexico.
