Why Canada Rules!

Well because me and the other Canucks get a lot of flack for being Maple Syrup swilling, hockey playin, beer drinkin hosers
I thought I would enlighten our American counter-parts as to why this country of ours is fuckin' awesome!


So, What Do We Canadians Have To Be Proud Of ?



1. Smarties (like M&Ms only a million times better!)



2. Crispy Crunch, Coffee Crisp (two great chocolate bars)



3. The size of our footballs fields, one less down, and bigger balls.



4. Hockey is Canadian



5. Baseball is Canadian - First game June 4, 1838 - Ingersoll, ON



6. Lacrosse is Canadian



7. Basketball is Canadian



8. Apple pie is Canadian



9. Mr. Dress-Up beats Mr. Rogers



10. Tim Hortons beats Dunkin' Donuts



11. In the war of 1812, started by America , Canadians pushed the Americans back past their White House. Then we burned it, and most of Washington .. We got bored because they ran away. Then, we came home and partied........ Go figure.



12. Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered to Germany.

13. We have the largest English population that never ever surrendered or withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere. EVER. (We got clobbered in the odd battle but prevailed in ALL the wars)



14. Our civil war was fought in a bar and lasted a little over an hour.

15. The only person who was arrested in our civil war was an American mercenary, he slept in and missed the whole thing. He showed up just in time to get caught.



16. A Canadian invented Standard Time.



17. The Hudsons Bay Company once owned over 10% of the earth's surface and is still around as the world's oldest company.



18. The average dog sled team can kill and devour a full grown human in under 3 minutes.
(That's more information than I need!)



19.. We know what to do with the parts of a buffalo.



20. We don't marry our kin-folk..



21. We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, Velcro, zippers, insulin, penicillin and the telephone. Also short wave radios that save countless lives each year..



22. We ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell about it.



23. A Canadian invented Superman.



24. We have coloured money.



25. Our beer advertisements kick ass {Incidently...so does our beer}

BUT MOST IMPORTANT !


The handles on our beer cases are big enough to fit your hands with mitts on.



OOOoohhhhh..... Canada !!



Oh yeah... And our elections only take one day.

This thread will be open season for Blue. Let's try to keep this one to a minor campfire. Heck.. I am happy to live anywhere but a 3rd World Country. I can say at least we have this:

CALIFORNIA GIRLS AND HOT BEACHES AND SLIM BIKINI'S!!

Wow, Blay is really looking for a battle! Gotta say, some good points.

And this thread will be Epic indeed, lol!

I had a feeling this would start a war lol
but Ive gotta defend my country

LOL.

I also want to throw a disclaimer out there, before this starts.

This is all in good fun, and no one is attacking anyone's country for real. If this this gets too hot, It'll have to go bye bye.

So have fun (good naturedly) with it and anjoy ribbing one another, but keep it civil and cool.

Ha! You gotta be shittin' me Blay, no maple syrup refrence? Or a nod to some of the best SNL cast members ever? What about Lanny Barby?

I'm still planning on moving to Romania anyways.

lol

Well these were all that were mentioned in the email I got lol
Maple Syrup is a given and I added it in up top with my intro haha

the g/f said you are all set!
Romania is set to receive you! haha

Downsides of Canada.


The Speed limit is like, 4mph. Seriously. Slim pedal on the right, canucks.

Bryan Adams. Yeah, I said it.

It's like -5 degrees, 10 months out of the year.

You guys play curling, lol.

haha

our speed limit is faster than yours

65mph is less than 120km/hr which we all drive on the highway

you can't hate the song Summer of '69
the rest of Bryan Adams I will agree with

MI has the same temps as Southern Ontario year round so don't try to
pull the temp crap on me Rob haha

as for curling.. don't mock what you dont understand
(actually I dont get it either)

If Canadians see sunlight they catch on fire. I thought I saw a tan Canadian once, upon further inspection I realized it just had a ton of freckles.

Canadians make Irish people look like George Hamilton.

Only in America......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

Well America has the General Lee and The 1966 Batmobile!

ENOUGH SAID!

Oh Wait.. and the A-Team Van and Airwolf!!!

Only in America!

I will concede on those points!

Has Canada ever officially apologized for Tom Green?

I didn't know we had to.
Americans embraced him just as much and even allowed him to star in a few movies. You guys dug your own grave on that one lol

Lol! You don't have to, it would just be nice to hear.

And yeah, we kinda f#cked up with that one for sure. Lol! Tom Green is OK in small doses, supporting roles and such.

OK, OK, fine. I'm stickin' with my earlier George Hamilton remark.

haha
I dont know about that.
aside from the odd ginger here n there I dont think anyone could make the Irish look like George Hamilton.. which is probably a good thing!

Im still waiting on an apology from America for allowing M. Night Shyamalan to make "The Village"
That was the worst POS I've ever seen. I guessed the ending 10mins in...
Then they let him continue by making lady in the water, which i avoided and the happening (or as I call it the Shattening)

I won't apologize for M NIGHT just because I really don't know who he is but I heard that movie was terrible.

OH WAIT:

Here is the killing blow Blay:

WE HAVE GEORGE LUCAS creator of the Epic Series STAR WARS! Born and raised in America!! California at that!!

Lol! Only because my little sister lives in Scotland do I know what a "ginger" is.

I can't by any means defend Americas collective intelligence, to do so would be....well, you've seen people of Wal Mart right?

An apology from America wouldn't be very American at all.

We'll continue to do all kinds of dumb shit in all of our glory, thats how we do it. America, fuck yeah!!!!

Thanks for Star Wars America, an apology for the last three movies would be awesome though. lol! We can't defend those bats.

Ok I have to go consume stuff and use lots of resources, I'll be back in a bit. *sigh....*

I just pretend the last 3 Star Wars movies were never made. I don't blame Lucas for that... technology I think did us in on that. I don't think if he had the sources, then those movies woulda been a pipe dream.

America the Beautiful... how bout I change that to America the freaking GREEDY! I love my country and I shall stand tall if she ever comes under attack but I cannot support how greedy and corrupt our country has become. It's all about the bottom line and the ME factor!! Maybe if we had more of a heart and support everyone instead of stabbing them in the back every chance we get... this country maybe great once again. But right now we are frowned upon and laughed at by some other countries.

At least I can give Canada credit. They do have nice people.

one thing i can say about canada that rocks and wry better agree with me: B.C. BUD.

Agreed good sir, agreed.

Although I gotta say, Colorados finest is quite comparable. I shit you not.

But yeah, props for that Blay.
