EPIC BATTLE
Ah yes, Canada and Denmark's epic battle for Hans Island.
Hans Island is the smallest of three islands not far from Greenland's coast, and Canada and Denmark have been fighting over it for years.
War ships from both sides patrol the area, and when they encounter each other they...show their flags.
When the soldiers leave the ships they...take the other side's flag down and raise their own.
Sometimes they leave a bottle of whiskey too.
Quite possibly the tamest war ever, yet USA and Sweden have tried their best to make the sides hate each other. USA's media have had stories about Denmark "invading Canadian soil" and Swedish media had a few stories about it as well and later comedians called Danish politicians and pretended to be Canadian politicians.
So far it haven't really worked.

Nah, we have good reason to want to handle that puppy softly. Wouldn't want to crush it 'cause it's so small.

I... didn't know anything about this XD Though leaving a bottle of Club with a sign saying "welcome to Canada" DOES sound like something Canada would do. We're fairly passive aggressive XD

We don't *invade*. We just act so nicely to the other guy he feels compelled to give us what we want just as a thank you.

Canada is INCREDIBLY passive compared to what both
the united states and Sweden is used too. plus we like to see a war that we don't get involved in every now and then

This isn't an "invasion", it's a comedy special for the CBC. Dur.

Canadians could argue that this is pretty ballsy for us... we generally apologize... sometimes we don't even know what for...
