Here's a flash about Canada to all you geniuses out there: Absent Canadian ballistic steel we would be suffering many more deaths and casualties in the two war zones our GIs are at risk in. We have managed to eliminate virtually all of our steel producing capacity and rely almost entirely on Canadian production to up-armor our military vehicles.

Feel free to reread my post if you think your information is somehow impacting it. And just because the U.S. has been dumb enough to regulate its steel production out of existence doesn't make Canada suddenly some pro-American wonderland for selling a product Americans need. I doubt you would apply the same logic to China.

Further, I assume from your comments that you think Canada selling something to America makes it worth it for America to be defending Canada, or even makes Canada somehow immune to being called a wuss icebox. I doubt you would apply the same logic to China here, either.

Sorry, if they didn't produce it we would.
