No bombs AND good health care. What am I waiting for? Oh, wait...are there
any *warm* climates in Canada?

It sounds like you are calling Canadians apes.
Actually, after a short research a few years back, I was astounded to find
out that Canada never did develop Nukes. I thought we had 'the bomb'. For
YEARS I was living with a false sense of security that we could take our
one bomb and do great damage to a small city somewhere within a few hundred
miles of Winnipeg's Portage and Main -- it's where Canada keeps all its
'central' secrets, like tax returns and college applications centres --
look out... um, um, um Bismarck... Yeah, yeah, that's it. I thought we
could bomb them back into the stoneage. It took time to adjust to the new
reality that we can't. Fortunately, it's not really necessary: those
badlands are already beautifully primitive. I'll give you ape-ish, but not
apes.
speaking no evil,
