From the World Politics thread...
Quote:
What do you think Cuba would be like today if it was Castro and not Guevara who was shot? I'm assuming from the fact that he's one of your heroes that he wouldn't have been a fascist dictator.

No borders at all? Should North, South and Central America be one giant super-country?
How would we decide which teams could be in the Rugby World Cup? But on a more serious note, due to human nature I think we'd make our own devisions anyway. If Guevara was Argentinian, why did he help Castro? Why did the Bolivian army shoot him? When did all this happen? I'm afraid I know pretty much squat about this period of history.

Who changed the title of this thread? This is talking about north America - not central or south america.

Hey did you know we invaded Canada in 1866 (well, actually it was the Irish). They captured some ships, but grew bored and went home...no, actually they were told, "Stop it" by the US, and Canada did its best to show them the door. It was in large effect to thwart the British, whom the Irish at the time had some bad feelings for. They eventually went back to Ireland to conduct their little war, leaving Canada alone. They recruited a lot of civil war veterans.
Then there's the declassified Invasion plans (1936) that the US drew up for "fun". We R such a bunch of rascals! I wonder if Canada has ever done thought to draw up US invasion plans? There, though it's the past, it is a Canada-US relation-type-topic....
