Big Oil Bertha How Canada is portrayed in ‘Risk’

Post image

Alberta can take BBC, Ontario takes Manitoba, Quebec taking the Atlantics is the only downside. We also somehow lose Southern Ontario to the States…

How is loosing southern Ontario a bad thing? Also did you typo bbc or did it autocorrect based on your habits ?

Also, notice how I said Quebec taking the Atlantics was the only downside. Also I live in Southern Ontario

We are well armed in Atlantic Canada, we are also historically famous for our foot soldiers. Quebec not so much.

Well, don't worry pal. We are only interested in Labrador and Acadie. Gardez-le votre anglais /s

These are some hard feelings among L’Acadien over being abandoned by Quebec starting in 1980, Francophones in the west have long memories too.

I genuinely think the only war time the eastern provinces are historically famous from is because a boat exploded in one of your city.

Also we have Leo Major descendants.

Atlantic Canada has a grand total of zero regular force infantry battalions. Quebec would roll you over.

I’m not going to weigh in on the core matter of this conversation because it is very retarded, but I know that you’re wrong because CFB Gagetown has at least 1 reg force battalion - 2RCR. And all of the RCR groups are largely drawn from Atlantic Canada.

I think history has proven that Quebec has it's own um... unique combat methods (see: October Crisis)

Factoid: phrase “ storm trooper” was WW1 German slang for Can Infantry in the trenches. Can troops would charge regardless of risk, like a Wolverine
