Canada and Australia ARE great places, but, and I ask this in all honesty, if another country decided to take you over by force, do you have the military ability to protect yourselves?
An honest question...an honest answer....NO! HAHA (you've seen our navy...a pic was posted a couple of weeks ago....hehe)

But we do have the Great Wall of Beer Cans around the entire circumference of Canada, 100 cans deep, 1000 cans high. The plan it to get invaders wasted on Canadian beer so we can come in and steal their guns.

In all seriousness....Canada is FAR from being able to protect itself on it's own militarily. HOWEVER, Canada also has many allies....Where others excel, we lack....and visa versa. Canada has much to offer in the way of natural resources, and even a half decent space program....we give what we can in our own way, as do our allies....that's what having friends is all about.
