You guys got it all wrong!
have you forgotten that both Canada (excluding Quebec!)and the good ole US of A are still part of our Empire 
The only difference being that Gordon and his friends have remembered to keep Liz Windsor's picture on their currency.
BTW Dustin would you be able to co-ordinate the collection of the 225 years of back taxes that you guys owe us and forward them direct to my bank account 
At this point I will take cover and await your well considered responses or ,in my worst nightmares, the creation of a whingeing limey icon!!!

I seem to remember something about a bunch of ragtag colonists whipping the Royal army's ass in the late 1700's. Also since we bailed G.B. out in two big time wars in the last century the cash flow should be east to west.

I don't think so
war of 1812 was a draw or slightly favoured the british since canada's territory did expand.
As for the two wars It seems to me Every country was helping in that one and helping each other.
Maybe Evans can calculate the compounded intrest that is still owed on the tea that got dumped in Boston Harbour
