because once you are attacked by Russia or China you just might need our assistance

It's really pathetic how you think of us as nothing more than a joke when we can be quite useful to you for other reasons.

You Canadiens really need to grow a set of balls. And a sense of humor.
Need your help in a war?! LOL!!!!!!
I seriously laughed so hard when I read this and sent the link to 22 of my friends. 8 of which are soldiers.
No slugger, I think we'll do okay without your "military". Thanks anyway

The OP is way too sensitive but you are a total dick. I'm Canadian and I loved Tusk. Guy Lapointe was awesome so I'm looking forward to this film. IMO, it's very clear that the jokes are in good fun. Kind of like friends poking fun rather than anything malicious.

Kevin Smith has stated several times that he loves Canada, said he always felt he was born a little too south bc he felt like he belonged in Canada... Canada, US, and the UK are his biggest fan bases. Smith has also said that he's considered moving to Canada several times. He's not making fun of Canada, he's making fun of everyone's interpretation of Canadians...

For example, I'm from Louisiana and we get made fun of all the time but for instance, The Waterboy which shows Louisianians as being backwoods, redneck, ignorant, and all living in a shack on a bayou. Adam Sandler said that they weren't making fun of Louisiana but how everyone views it in a stereotypical way.

Everyone's culture gets made fun of, lighten up.

Canada's not exactly known for its military might. Unless this is a hypothetical Sino-Russian HOCKEY invasion, I think the US will be the one saving Canada's @$$.

Lighten up a Little ...
America insults British people a lot, and we just Laugh.

You gotta mock other countries and people for a little light hearted comedy.

It's all stereotypical bull$hit anyway.
Just laugh it off :)

It was in response to the OP, not to your comment.

Canada is going to refuse help to the United States because Kevin Smith made some jokes about them in a movie?

[–] logan-duk-dong 9 years ago

USA: Help! We need food and water.
Canada: Sorry. Remember the time Kevin Smith did that one movie?
