The trial should either be held in Geneva, Munich, or New York City because this is balant fan-service and I for  one am tired of this from Bioware


Why would it be in Munich or New York?

The Hague would make sense.

Both Hale and... the other guy are Canadian, I would assume as much.


And slowly we reveal the dastardly Canuck plot to sap our precious bodily fluids, one video game at a time!:?

Maybe the officers of the court love Tim Hortons?

My Canadian education tells me that "Indian" is a racial slur, actually.

First Nations or Aboriginal is the political correct way to acknowledge them, actually.

Although, honestly, call them Injun for all I care. Drunken vandals with no jobs and destroyed houses, and the government just hands them money? No sympathy from me. Positive discrimination is still discrimination, I thought we wanted equality.

I hate that place. Those "donuts" don't even deserve the name.

Yes, that is correct, but most people don't know it....so I use what's known.

We will leave the rest of your post well and truly alone, as I am not looking for a flaming, bl**dy war with you.

It should have been a new fictional city. What's the point of it being a real life city if it's futurized we can't even recognize it.

Sorry, I come from a community where people generally don't hold back feelings. I don't regard it as racism, honestly, only an opinion.

There are many sides to many stories....I like knowing and attempting to understand all sides myself...there is a rather large urban population of Indigenous where I live...funny, I don't have any troubles, but many do.

I also have good number of seriously traditionalist Canadian (Indian) friends...I can assure you they do not fit your description by a long shot.

But this is not the time or place for such discussions...flaming, bigotry, anger, hatered, etc... will eventually ensue...Do we really want that? Lets please let sleeping dogs lay.

I don't think he's talking about Canadians in general, though I too agree that probably isn't a topic for these forums.

Actually its the Seattle-Vancouver mega city. The 2 cities have mirged and become one mega sity and it repressents both USA and Canada which probably means both countries have merged as well.

Heh.

But to answer the OP seriously, the importance that Geneva, Munich, or New York City have as sites for organizations like the U.N. or the Hague are political and historical, shaped by the circumstances of the day and the consequences of history. Two hundred years ago, the political importance of the  three cities you named was nothing like it is today. In another two hundred years, the state of global politics will likely be radically different, and in the ME universe, it is radically different.

So in conclusion the OP is the only person that really cares. Maybe we should tell Harbinger to drop in on your hometown personaly. I hear he loves to chat.

Canada is part of United North American States along side with USA and Mexico.

Also, Vancouver is one city with Seattle.
And that city is also like Alliance's Hague.

How in the world did the Canadians became the superpower in the future? What about us Germans and the E.U!!!
Our currency is worth more than the Canadian dollar and our military is more pwoerful than the Canadian army so I can't possibly see how they became a superpower,

The trial should either be held in Geneva, Munich, or New York City because this is balant fan-service and I for  one am tired of this from Bioware


This^ not possible for Canada to be a superpower, their population is too low plus theres alot of drug use and we all know hippies and peace lovers don't have the drive to bring a country to greatness.... but thats just my opinion, don't go spreading it around.
