HiJeromi Mikhael, revioew follows: article moved to mainspace today; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout; a QPQ has been carried out. The article looks good but I have an issue with the proposed hook. The article states that the conflict didn't really start until the previous treaty limits ended in 1994 and states that "the 'war' was essentially ended" in 1999, which gives five years. To avoid any dispute over the exact length perhaps you could propose an alternative hook? Something that dwells on how recent this was might be good, perhaps something like: "... that in the 1990s the USA and Canada ..."? - Dumelow (talk) 17:57, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
