Goals: spread Canadian influence throughout the world
History: Canada was a subject of the British Empire until July 1st, 1867. This gave Canada a constitution and unrestricted self-governing ability, though it still was technically British territory. The bill was called the Constitutional Act of 1867, which also gave Canada control of more barren tundras. Canada also had much influence from France, which made people in Quebec speak French. Canada was also greatly influenced by the United States, as it is Canada's only land neighbor.

Like many other countries, Canada was in WWI, had a depression, then was in WWII. After WWII, Canada participated in a few wars during the Cold War and also had a few rebel groups spring up at home. The rebellions never lasted long or did much harm, but it happened. Canada participated in the war on terror as well; not as much as America, but still somewhat.
Special Factors: Allies with pretty much every country; little to no enemies

I agree to the terms and conditions.

Definitely. Especially if that oil pipe is approved

[Migas999]

That's nice to hear. Now I can piss off OPEC all I want without consequence.

Actually, you can't. Look at what happend now, oil prices have dropped duo to OPEC, this to counter US oil production. OPEC is now making sure US oil companies are losing money becouse of the low oil prices. Same could happen to you if you mess iwth OPEC. OPEC is still the most powerfull organization in the world, nobody should forget that.

hey guys is portugal still available and if so can i reserver it until tomorrow night? Ill make a formal app then

Sure you can, consider it reserved for you

Still takes a while to build and such, i doubt Canada wants to anger OPEC in the coming years/decades.

Its good to have many different vehicles, it keeps you flexible.

Yippee! You hear that, Kelmet? Now you can do whatever you want with the entire Middle East and it'll be consequence free! Go there and sell old ladies pot, eat babies, call them Sand People, whatever you want! Um, just make sure TSA is thorough first.

Hey wait, I know you! And from what I've seen, you don't have the best post quality. I'm not trying to dissuade you from joining, just be ready to ramp up your post quality. Overtime.

Thing is, people don't like the current government, the oil projects (at least the ones who care about the environment do), or intervention in the Middle East
