Interesting thread.
Learned a new word: “exclave.” Aren’t diplomatic consulates exclaves, then?
Also, to what nation is the Chunnel “territorial”?
I wouldn’t think so as they are not parts of their homelands’ territories, whatever people think.
Just a guess, half of it is French, the other British.
Mr Livingstone, I presume?
This is why now when applying for a Canadian passport you have the option of having the “Country of Birth” omitted. None of this, “he’s a Canadian citizen, but according to this he was born in Syria, so let’s deport him to there.”
Belgium has been, for lack of a better word, a “country” for 500 years, and for only 15 of those has it been part of a Holland led “Netherlands”.
Recognizing that this is a semi-zombie (being only about 3 or 4 months old) I’m going to insert some comments, anyway…
As I understand (IANAL), under US law, you can’t be prohibited from entering. BUT (and a really big BUT it is) INS can leave you in Canada while you do months worth of paperwork establishing your right to enter. If Canada wants to deport you in the meantime, they have to figure out where to send you, while the two countries Department of State (or equivalent) negotiate. In other words, regardless of which direction you were going, you might wind up in something roughly analogous to a jail, in a cell, sleeping on a crappy cot, and shitting in a crappy toilet for awhile, with nothing good to read. Try to avoid this situation. 
Reading that, and the various things it linked to, and being a dual-citizen besides, I’m thinking much unpleasantness could have been avoided if he was also a dual-citizen, and had passports appropriate to that status. I’m thinking it’s really time for me to apply for my Canadian passport. :eek:
If you come in by land* or from an airport without pre-clearance, they can’t “leave you in Canada.” They would have to remove you to Canada first, and once you make an declaration of US citizenship, you’re entitled to a hearing before a judge before removal.
*At least at every port of entry that I’ve been through. It’s possible the US has an agreement with Canada to put some on Canadian territory, as they’ve done at some airports.
If you look closely, I think you will find that Germany has indeed fought Tristan da Cunha.
I acknowledge the second part of your sentence, but its first half stills sounds awfully patronising. May I ask how so?
As an Aussie, I basically see New Zealanders as being my fellow Australians.
/apart from their sheep-loving sexual tendencies and their ongoing obsession with taking the Ring to Mordor despite not knowing the way, they are just like us
I think Canada supplies most of the tanks to the Afghan theatre if I’m not mistaken.
(How that’s protecting America is a matter for debate, but it still shows the alliance isn’t one way）
The times I’ve been in Israel the “cheap” jokes were directed at Scots or Jews.
Well sure… I mean, have you seen Aussie sheep?! Poor scrawny dehydrated wee things… who could get excited over one of them? 
Jews in general or Jews abroad?
That’s awesome. i was skeptical until the pancakes.
I thought it sucked, until Alex Treebark showed up… Eh?
Blame Canada. With Japanese subtitles. Now this is the way to rag on the Canucks, eh?
Here is a picture of the US/Canadian border in (I think) Vermont.
No border guards to be seen (indeed looks like a building straddles the border).
I’ve been there, although I don’t remember the paint on the street. (Maybe it’s been added since my visit, or else this is an older photo.) It should be noted that you’re not allowed to just cross the border there. I did it (with my bike) but it’s technically illegal and road signs make that clear; you have to go through the border point a few metres west. As for the building (this one), it’s kind of an exception, and having it straddle two jurisdictions has caused some legal problems.
