    In the last episode of SG1 season 7 the presidant orders someone to contact the goverments of the gould attack. The goverments they contacted where

    China Russia - Yes understandble
    France Britten - Ye ok i suppsose
    Canada - WTF? what can canada do why would they contact canada to warn them?

    Germany would be a better choice than canada. There is no sence to the canada idia that i can see.

    When somone is outside your house threatening to burn it down with a flame thrower.... wouldn't it be a nice idea to let you neighbour know about it?

    Canada and the USA make up NORAD.

    NORAD is headquartered in Cheyenne Mountain.

    Cheyenne Mountain houses the SG project.

    I'd actually go as far as to presume the Canadians have been in on the act from the beginning. They, along with the US, operate NORAD, so I assume that they have access to all the NORAD data and projects. Particularly since the SGC is in the same complex!

    Because Canada has a military position in support of the US.

    That or they realised that canada brings a large percentage of their ratings.

    It would explain why a few of the staff appear to have Canadian accents too....:)

    The is (and always has been) full of references to Canada.
    Why, you ask?
    ...might it have something to do with the fact that SG-1 is a Canadian programme?

    and another one you all forgot, McKay is canadian.

    It's filmed in Canada - it's not Canadian. Otherwise "The X-Files" (for the earlier seasons) was Canadian, as were countless other shows. It's American by virtue of the fact that it's financed by an American cable channel (Sci-Fi).

    Canadians are only Americans who lie about where they come from so they don't get beaten up, Canada doesn't exist.
