I want to go on an extended trip to Canada later in life.

 

I always did think Canada was awsome.

 

I love it here, but it does have its share of problems. But what country doesn't?

 

 

 

Australia.

Yes, we are quite small compared to many Americans, you uneducated [bleep].

 

 

 

sadly its canada so they dont have any fireworks and only bacon booze and hocky

 

Which is quite enough for me.

 

 

 

who cares what you think your a nazi mister putdownthedisabled.

 

 

 

Same philosophy as your 1930/40 german party counterparts.

 

 

 

and i was joking you [wagon].

 

 

 

also, your the uneducated on thinking the disabled should be put down.

 

 

 

You can't call someone uneducated with that grammar and spelling.[/hide]

 

Yeah, happy Canada day guys. Couldn't have kept it flame-free. :thumbdown:

Happy Canada D'EH! In celebration i hit my bong all day. Then watched trailer park boys ALL DAY!

Happy Canada Day!

 

 

 

(srsly tell me, do you guys have split up heads like Ike in SP?)

Happy Canada Day!

 

 

 

(srsly tell me, do you guys have split up heads like Ike in SP?)

 

No, but we do say aboot instead of about in the eastern provinces, and we say eh a lot, and live in igloos, and have pet mooses, and eat maple syrup all day.

 

 

 

I was in the states once, and this lady saw my mums license plate(we were in a camping place), and she asked us, being totally serious, if we lived in igloos. I facepalmed like fifty times simultaneously.

Best Canada related moment was when I was in Italy for a week. My sister was talking to this 8 year old American girl while my family was at the pool. Conversation goes:

 

 

 

Girl: "I live in New Jersey, where do you live?"

 

 

 

Sister: "Toronto"

 

 

 

G:"Where's that?"

 

 

 

S: "In Canada"

 

 

 

G: "Is that in the US?"

 

 

 

:wall:

 

I actually love those commercials. But, I also get to work on what is supposed to be our country's birthday. I should call in, but I can't afford to.

 

 

 

And of course... Happy Birthday Canada! 142 years old, already?

 

 

 

Oh, I like them, it just annoys me that Molson isn't Canadian at all.

 

Technically, those commercials are only about the Molson Canadian beer. And Molson has been on "Canadian" soil for over 200 years, so it is at least partially Canadian.

 

Fair enough, although it is an american company pretending to be Canadian.

 

 

 

Y guy just recently the company was given back to the original canadian familys hands.

Even in the U.S. army it's like that. I remember the time my father told me that when he was in the Canadian army, that they had some people from the US that were all impressed that the city was not out of igloos and they were serious. My father couldn't stop laughing that time apparently, but who wouldn't.

She may have been 8 but I'm almost damn sure she knows where Mexico is. Also Canada isn't really that far from New Jersey so I don't see how she doesn't know at least one person who's been.

Canada felt small and insignificant to America so they made up a day to make big noises to compete to July 4th

 

 

 

sadly its Canada so they don't have any fireworks and only bacon booze and hocky

 

 

 

Don't forget that we have an overabundance of ice cubes, icicles, frozen lakes, frozen earth, permafrost, frozen people of all kinds, frozen oil (let's see you Americans go without that), frozen narwhals, frozen mountains and frozen rivers. :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

 

 

I love being the stereotypical Canadian.

Frozen homes (igloos), too.

And then we gt that television thngy! the box in my igloo is just a cut out of the wall, nature channel 24/7 how lovely!

Your milk comes in bags!

:lol: My friend made an account on runescape called Bagged Milk because of that.

I came across this map which I found interesting, it shows countries dollar growth from 1975 to 2002. Everything was as expected, South America and Africa shrunk while the US and Japan grew, Europe was stable. Except I could barely see Canada. Perhaps some helpful Canadian TIFer can help me by explaining what Canada was doing (or not doing) for this to occur

 

[hide=world map by dollar growth 1975-2002][/hide]

 

Obviously the countries with more people grew a lot (China, India and Russia) and South Korea and Japan look ready to explode but I thought Canada was reasonably prosperous

I knew when I was 5 that America and Canada are different countries... if an 8 year old doesn't know that Canada and the US are different countries that's just sad.

Frozen oil?! Time to invade Canada!

 

 

 

God I hate being an American because of you people (last few posters about the 8 year old girl).

Canadians take pride in the fact we are separate from Americans, though. And Americans figure by the time the kid is 10, they'll have taken over Canada and we WILL be 1 country. Of course, Canada has half the world on our side.
