Oh Canada...
Send love to Plato
Two days ago Canada decided to open yet another boring war with the eUK. Canada were lead into this war by a Jim Lahey CP ( i shall refer to Rylde as Lahey in this article...feel free to google Jim Lahey who is a Canadian TV character) who decided to attack at a pro-ONE time of day while under the influence of alcohol, probably not the best course of action you will agree.
Apparently this was because Canada has no other enemy to attack due to her being surrounded by allies. It certainly wasn't because the eUK was already in a struggle with France and CP Lahey (aka Rylde) and would be easy pickings. Despite constant boasts of a ''sexy war'' Canada again attacked the eUK.
Lets consider Canada's limited options shall we?
Spain? A country Canada boasted of wiping so they would get a foot hold into Europe. Well a swift NAP was agreed which does seem rather odd considering Canada has limited options. Also considering the anti-Spoland feeling in Canada it does seem strange to cut off this source of future action. I am pretty sure it had nothing to do with Spain sending CP Lahey home with his tail between his legs.
Poland? When Canada did have a border the Polish were under attack from numerous resistance wars not to mention a full on war with France and America. Canada attacked and within a few very short days CP Lahey was again sent packing across the Atlantic. I am sure Canada could agree with France to NE them to take one region so they could border Poland and liberate their old ally...remember CP Lahey likes to mention how he will fight to the end for his foes.
USA - Well CP Lahey has managed to put his Babycham down long enough to make some very aggressive remarks about their big brothers lately. We were even entertained by his comments about standing up to them. Considering the US 'betrayed' CP Lahey this seemed a valid option if you read his latest article. I did comment on it about a war with America and was treated to a response about how it would damage his country's MPP's. It appears allies of Canada mean everything in the written word but if you cost them MPP's then you are on your own.
No people of eRepublik. This latest failed invasion of the eUK was down to CP Lahey having no other option but to attack a smaller weakened nation in order to save face. He has been humiliated time after time through his words and then his actions. Of course i am sure he attempted to invade the eUK for our valuable oil, though France had surrounded that so it wasn't an option open to Canada. Then perhaps it was so they could border Europe and make gains through Europe liberating her allies...well again he could have easily already arranged something with France so they could have another 'crack' at Poland and liberate their old friends.
Are you citizens of Canada actually excited when you see another NE on the eUK? Do you not crave a new war and something different? Or are you prepared to admit that you aren't the world player you think you are and are lead by a man who believes his main military strategists are Jack Daniels and Johnny Walker.
Perhaps the above explains why the USA didn't include you in the talks regarding the new alliance?
Remember this next election and re-elect CP Lahey who will again lead you into another month of humiliation and 'same old. same old'

And while your wasting damage on Canada. France is taking your regions and it seems Germany is about to join in on it too. But hey, at least you took NFL (while losing regions to France and about to have germany join the party.)
Keers made a mistake and got distracted with teaching Canada a lesson (Which i don't think we learned) that now France has majority of your country and a third is about to join and take regions.
Well to be honest France has closed the Canadian border and done us a huge favour...as for Germany...bring it on, it'll be exciting to actually face a fresh foe for once.
Through ONE we'll get France out, and hopefully Poland will close the Brittany border. Without our oil they will dwindle away as a wiped country and it'll be a long long time before they manage to kick the Poles out.

France is taking like shit at the minute, along with all their buddies, those regions are unwinnable atm. Canada joined in the party attacking us when we were weak, it backfired. Deal with it.
We were losing badly to France before, there was no need for a diversion.
Karma, once Poland get their fingers out they'll be wiped ten fold...AND WE GET A NEW SEXY WAR AGAINST GERMANY \O/
Though i'm guessing it wont just be us against them as Terra/Eden have a bug up their arse about the eUK lately. BUT STILL...A NEW FOE!!!
"And while your wasting damage on Canada. France is taking your regions and it seems Germany is about to join in on it too."
That was the plan from the beginning. As you said oil was not available for us. We were just draining damage. Same thing we did earlier against Poland and Spain to drain damage for the US and allow France to have a congress.
@Danie Fox we diverted ONE damage that usually goes against Portugal
So your sexy war was all about a two day war with Poland and another three day war with Spain?
You were planning more than a drain but thats how it ended up. Joking aside you have some great citizens, and have some strong tankers...respect to that. But it just gets boring as hell when the only opponent you are imaginative to take on long term is a small Island country, and then its usually in a two country attack.
I have said it before and i'll say it again...i miss Sperry
Check out my article "Improve the eUK: Military"

@Dr Hugh Jardon Do you really think that Canada can achieve more than that?
I think is the same Sperry ideal just that now we have the ability to get some TP medals to please our citizens 🙂

@Mihai - Well Rylde talks about Spain and Poland. You have a strong Division 4 strong allies...we've seen that Terra are impressive and organise efficiently. But if your only way out of Canada is the eUK then you really need to look at land swaps with your allies. If you read the papers before the Spanish assault it was taken that you were an even match, its also been said recently (numerous times) that you have a great record against Poland. Yet again you come back to the eUK again and again.
But why did Rylde tie your hands with a swift NAP with Spain? Speaking as someone who i know is bored rigid by these actions...and quite a few Canadians are too...i am genuinely excited about Germany declaring war. A fresh enemy.
Options are there for Canada, but it doesnt look like your bottling them...thats not a trolling remark just an honest observation.

@Dr
1. From my understanding we didn't NAP with Spain, ONE supported the RW in Azores because their balkan members were not supporting a Canadian invasion. We were just lucky.
2. Land swaps? I personally don't like it since enemies can easily disturb them.
3. I guess I'm still a noob and I'm not bored of fighting the UK yet but yes users on both ends seem to be bored. I believe that if it can help an ally we should NE you as much as needed.
4. I enjoy articles like this, keep it up doc!
Voted! Hi Canadians.
voted, Hi canada lol
^hey guys ^__^
Well for one we wanted to invade Spain but they closed their border...and there was no NAP between us.
You are our only hostile border eUK... just live with it ; )
So if there is no NAP between you and Spain why not attack now and help Portugal?
No bordor, Azores is Portugal and our only way to Spain
And you've never considered offering Portugal a region and swapping as a temporary solution? Time consuming but after a week at least you are then free for a sexy war and help Portugal
too confusing with MPP lose and NE's. Do more damage than good. If Spain was to take azores, no problem.
But us attacking Portugal wipes our MPP's and then for 7 days we have to piss fart around in Portugal while there battling Spain. Wont end up good for Portugal.
does canada do anything beside fail? to be honest why they a country, they should just be annex and all join usa. thats what they really are honestly. we all just see canada as north usa. just usa lapdog.
You see guys! Some CAnadians CAN be nice. Im pretty sure that we could all be friends if it wasnt for Rylde
lol joshta, says the person who's country is almost wiped AGAIN
No i agree, i have come across some great Canadians...shame they are led by someone like Rylde. I guess the eUK have had our fair share of leaders who were p*ss poor

Excellent comparison! It's the great $%!@ storm!
