No. “Labatt” used to be a Canadian beer. It is now part of the Anheuser Busch Interbrew Miller God awful international monstrosity that sells bubbly piss. ---

And Molson was bought by Coors and is headquartered in Chicago. More bubbly piss. ---

ISTM that to within a rounding error, all beer on Earth is made by a subsidiary of either InBev, Coors, or Heineken. The minor brewers vastly outnumber them in number of brands, but collectively are a mere pimple on the elephant of the Big 3’s production. ---

Yeah, we could get some things fixed. Go ahead and invade us, we will surrender, and as part of the conditions of surrender, you\* will re-write out constitution.

I too welcome the Canadian takeover. The RCMP has _brown_ jackboots. So much kinder, gentler, and all around _nicer_ than the black ones our goons have. 😉 [https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=RCMP+dress+uniform](https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=RCMP+dress+uniform) ---

> [@Guest-starring\_Id](#): > > Just be ready to apologize. Invading Canadian: Pardon our invasion Candianized American: Oh, no, pardon us for blocking your invasion. Way back in the dark ages of the internet (the 90s), occasionally a Canadian would threaten (politely, of course) to reenact certain actions that took place in the District of Columbia during the War of 1812. I sometimes responded that we’d built the perfect defense against that without even realizing it. You see, whenever a Canadian ~~strikeforce~~ reenactment troupe from Medicine Hat or Moose Jaw or wherever gets within about 100 miles of DC, someone in the group will say “before we burn anything, lets first go to the Air and Space Museum.” At that point the expedition would be lost. ---

The difference is, the crap in some third world shithole can’t screw up the rest of the world. US crap can and does do that. This is particularly true of Canada, where we’re stuck on the same goddamn continent as you. Congratulations, we’ve finally found out what America is actually the best at! ---

If they were to coördinate a strategic pincer movement of taco trucks flooding across the southern border (in alliance with Mexico), we would be helpless. The conquest of the USA would be over in less than a week. Americans have a certain loneliness when it comes to war. Since 1814, US territory has been invaded by hostile belligerents exactly once, and how did we react? We set up [Pancho Villa State Park](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Village_of_Columbus_and_Camp_Furlong#Historic_district) to honor the invaders and their leader. ---

You can’t have curling without beer. Traditionally, the winning team of the game buys a round for the losing team. ---
