This thread is 8 years old, but maybe your post will bring back some earlier posters!

BTW - we have a 'colony'?

"Canuck" means Canadian. Well at least every Brit I ever met with pips on their collars called us a colony.

Well, you obviously haven't met many - we haven't had 'colonies' for a very long time - adn we know it.

I have to tell you, if you're spoiling for a fight, you won't get one

I thought it was a strange thing to be said as well. It was probably a condescending remark or a joke. Who knows? Young officers from Sandhurst College conducting officer training at Wainwright base. I believe if I wanted a fight, I'd post on an English forum as they were English.
