This is funny

[Kaaurk]

Why we are proud to be Canadian!


1. Smarties

2. Crispy Crunch

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

4. Baseball is Canadian

5. Lacrosse is Canadian

6. Hockey is Canadian

7. Basketball is Canadian

8. Apple pie is Canadian

9. Mr. Dress-up kicks Mr. Rogers butt

10. Tim Hortons kicks Dunkin' Donuts butt

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

20. A Canadian invented Superman.

21. We have coloured money.

22. Our beer advertisments kick butt

23. Coffee Crisp

24. We don't bomb our allies

25. Our elections only take one day

26. We invented zambonis

BUT MOST IMPORTANT:

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

[Selveem]

Meh. Go fish.

[Harroghty]

Except, at a glance, two Americans invented the telephone, a Swiss invented velcro, the Brits (perhaps with some provincial militia) sacked Washington, one of Superman's two co-creators was born in Canada (but did not really live there).... stick with hockey and silly accents. Play to your strong suits.

[Grenwyn]

And the Americans won the war anyway.

[Selveem]

Mr. Dress-up doesn't have jack crap on Mr. Rogers, anyhow. Mr. Rogers was actually beyond his time and an assistance in curbing Big Content's overreach to enact stupid laws preventing technology from evolving (see Big Content vs Technology: The Right to Record?):

"I have always felt that with the advent of all of this new technology that allows people to tape the 'Neighborhood' off-the-air ... they then become much more active in the programming of their family's television life. Very frankly, I am opposed to people being programmed by others. My whole approach in broadcasting has always been 'You are an important person just the way you are. You can make healthy decisions' ... I just feel that anything that allows a person to be more active in the control of his or her life, in a healthy way, is important."

So, what's up, Mr. Dress-up?

The water you call beer?

We have the largest English population that never ever
surrendered or withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere. EVER.

[Melian]

Hey, is that flag for a pub or something? Seems like a good waste of cloth.

[Lysha]

Aboot.

That is all.

[Kaaurk]

That is debatable. The Americans came north to conquer Canada and you failed miserably.

And Briek Only because we want to. With out us you would be speaking German long before the Americans decided to join in.

We changed our minds when we discovered there wasn't really anything worth conquering.

Heh, Steve Nash and Wayne Gretzkie are both famous for their positions on US teams. Steve Nash, Phoenix Suns. Wayne Gretzkie, Phoenix Coyotes player and coach. Two of the torch lighters for the Winter Olympics in Canada. I guess you guys produce them, and we make them famous.
