I'm TELLING you, we want what's going to be their vast, open tracts of farm land. When the overall global temperature rises just a few degrees, sea level rises a few feet and the gulf stream shifts course, the middle of Canada is going to be some of the most desireable real estate on the planet!

You can't just suddenly decide on day to invade a country! You need to lay some ground work, spend a olittle time building resentment and fanning it into outright hatred.
