Bigger than America. And Canada is on top. hmmmm. If the earth is a prison from the rest of the universe, then America is Canada's bitch. 000213 ... Verdulum The word is capitalized, fools! 000222 ... lisa_is_bionic Canadians do many things: we ice fish, and collect maple syrup. My father builds igloos, while I romp in the snow with my pet polar bear. 000526 ... RYAN THE RED I WENT TO NOVA SOCA ONCE. THE WARTER IS FUCKING COLD THERE. THEY HAVE MONOPOLY MONEY UP THAIR 000922 ... Glory Box Our money is pretty, red, blue and yes, even green. I personally don't own a polar bear, but my yak Daisy is a constant companion. Canada is the last frontier, underpopulated and unhospitable. Not so much because of the wind, but step outside your door and you're in snow up to your shoulders. 001126 ... Canada boy Didn't Canada beat a neighbour in the 1800's, in a minor scuffle. 001128 ... datura i was in london ontario when i was three, and i pissed in the pool. i'm sorry, canadians, i knew not what i did. 001202 ... grampa kuunta bacon..bacon...its ham dammit. stupid canucks 001202 ... pat sajak chicken saga phase one? 001202 ... twadler What the fuck is up with the word..... eah. Is that like a readable questionmark? 001202 ... tweedle where everyone is nice, but wierd. where snow is a weather condition, not and event. where people aren't as stressed as the rest of the world. where the moose lives. where you can find actual, real nature. where it is cold. 010102 ... Lyle McMahon i realized the most amazing thing the otehr day that when you are on a mission to take over the world and you have russia and china and amerikkka and england and all those other atrocities your set you dont even need canada because it doesnt count that is, if your willing to live without syrup and hockey which, when you have control of the world, i bet you can live without so if your ever threatened for your life, or your freedom just move to canada because, as you know, the only things left after a nuclear war is cockroaches and canada and you, of course, cannot be a roach eh? 010506 ... power through passion It happens to be the place of my birth and strangely enough, has a place in my heart it isn't all about snow and maple syrup and the money isn't any more like monopoly money than most other countries it's just that America sees dollars in monochrome Canadians aren't weird any more than anyone else since, after all, I've never met a person who I didn't consider weird if I did, I'd probably consider them half dead And for those of you who think that Canada would survive a nuclear war try looking up a little term called NATO and realize that we are all in this thing, this experiment, together and we might get nuked together for our audacity And hey... back in the 1950s, the Russians would have nuked Canada first because that's where those old US bombers refueled on the way over to Siberia. So let's be nice to Canada 010719 ... Allie when Canada comes to mind, ppl are a little foggy. "oh uh isn't it that country where they dont have a president or something?" all I know is that I have the coolest Canada hat from like the 80s that used to belong to Boat Kelley. 010723 ... Casey They brought us kids in the hall and alanis. There is only minnesota between us, but I have still never been there. I should go one day 010723 ... Josh Lamb Canada kicks ass. No Crime, Lots of scenery, Friendly people. So shut the hell up. 011105 ... mr. maple leaf what's all this anti-canada stuff aboot, eh? 011105 ... US AMA BIN SKYWALKER Hey getting nuked or not, with or wihout your fuckin protection at least were not the ones who were stupid enough to buy everything the politicians told you... Fuckin hook line and sinker... Sometimes I wish I was an american citizen cause then at least id feel it a patriotic duty to nuke my own country. EH! 011207 ... The Empire Strikes Back Fight the Dark Side EH! 011207 ... The Empire Strikes Back We americans will do away with all the evil doers! Cause were God... No wait were Batman! 011208 ... The Patriot! War don’t protect your freedom.. Theres no one who is a threat to the US anymore...im talking about countries that we don’t arm first of course... yeah cause ya know about all the people we sell arms to... yeah then we start a fuckin war. that war is scary for about a day...Ya man, we give them the old weapons and we use the new ones on them... iraq found that out plenty good... you got the scud we got the patriot... And dont forget our policy... kiss our ass or we'll kick you in the head... But its ok thank JEZUZ! Even Rome fell... its all a matter of time... 011208 ... Grievance canada is one of the places, that if you live in america, you never hear about expect in a short "oh yeah, and canada's up there" in geography class, and when you talk to australians. Because apparently if your a tourist in australia, and an australian asks you if your from america, a candian will get very angry and obscene. So now if you go to australia, they ask if your a Canadian first. Apparently, some Canadians are like French people in arrogance towards americans. The whole thing is sad really, I like Canada. 011208 ... Drew We don't call it monopoly money here we call it loonies 020106 ... cube One of the benefits of being Canadian is that we're not American. We enjoy a similar life style (albeit not as wealthy) while being recognized in the rest of world as distinctly different. This is understood immediately as a good thing by anyone else in the global village... ³ 020106 ... kerry beeeeeeyootiful! 020106 ... ClairE Dude, I found where we can run away to! Montreal is closer to me than Buffalo... 020107 ... cube Not sure about Dude guy, but i can tell you that Montreal would be much more of a shock to those delicate American sensibilities than Buffalo. It's much more cosmopolitan (read: european) than anywhere else on the continent except perhaps New Orleans. Of course, Buffalo gets much more snow than Montreal ever did :-) ³ 020107 ... squigglybee my boyfriend is from canada. i like canada. i'm an american and i say canada rocks *giggles* 020705 ... CANADA ROCKS Canada... cosmopolitan... friendly... peaceful... open... educated... multicultural... beautiful... We welcome, and embrace, everyone We are the Peacekeepers We take care of our sick, elderly, helpless, destitute... The champions of universal equality... A free, independent country... Self-sufficient if we choose... open your eyes, we are right next door... abandon your arrogance, pride, rampant nationalism, religious self-righteousness, ethnocentricism, Manifest Destiny Syndrome, etc, etc, etc... do you ever wonder how you appear to the rest of the world... or do you even care... that we are laughing 030215 ... peer true doh! http://www.rightpoint.ca/socialism.html 030220 ... Piso Mojado my high school art history teacher gave patches embroidered with the canadian flag to any students who were traveling outside the US. he did this because he had found in his own experiences that people treated him better when they found out he was not american, but canadian. i thought for a while about applying to mcgill u. in quebec. 030220 ... niska quebec has little, if nothing, to do with canada. go to Ryerson. 030309 ... this is me now .....not just america's hat 030309 ... this is me now i actually happen to have fallen in love with a club and vibe in montreal. i traveled there all the way from san fran. just to go to this one friggin club. and it was so worth it. if anyone is in montreal. you should check out Stereo. its amazing. god bless canada 030309 ... cube It's not quite right to say that Quebec has "little if nothing" to do with Canada. Quebec has always played an important role in Canadian politics. It is true however, to say that Quebec is often ignored by the rest of Canada. This is probably due to the_boy_who_cried_wolf effect - Quebecois have so often threatened to separate from the rest of Canada that nobody listens any longer. And that's already WAY more than you wanted to know about us, eh? ³ 030310 ... no reason dammit, "this is me now", i was just in montreal a week and a half ago. you should've told me then. ;) 030310 ... niska what i don't know could fill a warehouse. cube, i want to know it all... for instance: why does this country have two languages, yet in quebec, english text is illegal, even on products and road signs? are beer labels in quebec all french? i'd like to see what a french bottle of Bud looks like. is it spelled Budweiseur? 030310 ... endless desire ayyyyyeee! will someone just tell me what vancouver is like i thought blatherers liked answering questions. and this is the only one i really seem to care about at the moment. 030609 ... pobodys nerfect Oh this is cool, I just put in a Celine Dion cd before I refreshed the page and saw this topic! Good timing. :D Endless--I'd help you if I could, but I've never been there. I've seen stuff about it on tv and stuff. I think it's sort of like Canada's version of California--they almost always get the better weather sooner than everyone else in the country.(Lucky bastards) ;) 030609 ... no reason i'm not sure vancouver really gets the better weather... it's nice there, but pretty moderate, and rains a lot. but it's a great place. a big enough downtown area with lots to do, without benig overwhelming, and nice residential areas too. and of course the beach. the university of british columbia campus is beautiful. the only thing that bothers me about it is that it's sometimes too americanized. there was one hotel there that only accepted american money. in canada. that was a little baffling. still, a great place to visit. 030610 ... shivers 2 things, im from saskatchewan but all of my family (aunt and couzins) live in quebec. i love it there, the atmosphere is so much more alive than in a small rural farming community. i have no clue why my parents moved here. I have only been to vancover once, naniamo. it was soo warm out!! :) its really nice, reminded me of pleasent ville 030610 ... endless desire ooh goodie. so many replies on vancouver. . .if you wonder why i want to see them, you could visit flowers_from_safeway_is_my_new_favourite (or something like that) i really appreciate it though. it sounds just beautiful. i can't wait until the day i can visit. the more i hear about, the more absolutely enchanted i become by a place i have never even traveled. your descriptions seem to take me there. my imagination travels to what i call home before i have even laid a foot on its soil. it's so comforting. take_me_there 030610 ... celestopia Aaaaaahhhh Quebec. Everybody should learn something from Quebec. But first, in order to explain, a short explanation of canada. Canada is like america, only we breather cleaner air, have more space, can drink at an earlier age, can smoke pot, can marry whoever the fuck we want, and don't have to worry about getting our asses shot by some paranoid gun-freak every time we step outside. Oh yeah, and our government actually spends money on things like education and health care, rather than spending it all on semi-religious war crusades and launching endless bits of junk into outer space. BUT Canada's culture is sadly and eerily similar
