Canadian Pride

[Crunchy English]

I mentioned this jokingly with Khell, but it really does bother me that my home country, Canada takes so little pride in itself.

Canada loves to talk about why we're so divided, and the easy answer is that we're not really a nation. We're a couple dozen nations all sharing the same border and flag. British, French, Ukraine, Indian, Native, Irish, African, Australian, Japanese, Chinese, and French, and Quebec.

We're not fellow Canadians, we're just people who hang out in the same place. Like a bunch of disorganized roommates. The guys out west pay the bills and think everybody else is just slacking off. Quebec gets none of the respect it rightly deserves, so it throws a hissy fit every few months. Except for Montreal which is a chainsmoking womanizer. B.C. is getting high all the time in his room, but has great taste in movies. The East desperately wants to call for pizza and and turn up the heat but no one is listening. And Toronto is a gay accountant.

The truth is though, if our country was more dynamic, we might instill more pride in each of those sects, and all the other ones I missed. I completely believe you can be proud of your heritage, both ethnic and national. Sorry, if you can't decipher my somewhat strained analogy, but what I really want are ways to unify the group.

Americans in the crowd, and anyone else with a decent idea, speak up? What can my country do to bring together a bunch loner roommates?

Hi, my name is Jean-Philippe, and I'm a proud Canadian.

I am proud about our overall position in the world. I am proud to be part of such a culturally diverse nation.

Canada has its flaws, but all in all we live in an alright country.

Get everyone down to the freshman mixer! It'll be reeeall coool dudes. You can call me The Duggler, just like my dad does.

Also, I'm from Montreal, do I get to be a chain smoking womanizer too?

Well, start blowing stuff up. That's why most Americans seem to like the country. We blow things up. And we're good at it. I mean, our Independence Day is blowing crap up.

If a year ends with everyone's kid's fingers intact, you aren't doing it right.

I still remember watching my cousin run down a beach holding a fountain firework shouting "Oh man this burns! AWESOME!" Had second degree burns on every finger.

First of all, you forgot the question mark. And no, he's actually a junior in college. BUT, he's from North Carolina. He's not a redneck, but he has his Southerner moments.

No, southerners know how to handle explosives. We are taught from birth how to turn black cat mortars into RPG's. You're cousin is just retarded.

Canada!
Canada!
Canada!
Canada!
Canada on strike!
Canada says "no more!"
No more neglect! We want respect! That's what we're striking for!
All you bureaucrats and corporate cats can all just take a hike!
It's Canada on strike!

Canada on strike!
From Vancouver to St. John's,
We raise our middle fingers up for you all to sit upon!
And with our fingers up your ass you won't be very psyched!
It's Canada on strike!

And we will not bow or budge.
Our resolve is strong.
We even took three hours to rehearse this striking song!

Canada on strike!
No matter where you are!
If you are Canadian, than you've got do your part!
March out from the halls!
That's right, suck my Canadian balls!
It's Canada on strike!
It's Canada on Strike!
It's Canada on Strike!
It's Canada
On Strike!

:-D

ah canada, America's hat.

What does that make Mexico?

 

[Clairaudient]

ah canada, America's hat.

America, Canada's pants.

 

[Slayer_2]

Canada rules because we just do. I'm from BC, and may I say weed is abundant and cheap here

 

[The Iron Ninja]

ah canada, America's hat.

What does that make Mexico?

The important bits.

 

[Omnipotent_Mortal]

Canada rules because we just do. I'm from BC, and may I say weed is abundant and cheap here

How quickly can I become a resident?

 

[xitel]

ah canada, America's hat.

What does that make Mexico?

The important bits.

See now, I was thinking that since Canada is America's hat, an article of clothing, wouldn't that make Mexico America's boots? Or socks? It can't be pants, since we all know that Florida is America's wang, and that's completely bare.

 

[LewsTherin]

ah canada, America's hat.

What does that make Mexico?

Canada's Shoes

 

[Clairaudient]

You always know the right thing to say Khell.

 

[xitel]

ah canada, America's hat.

America, Canada's pants.

America: Canada's Jock Strap.
It takes all the punishment while Canada stands tall. Also needs a good washing once and a while.

Mexico: Canada's socks.
Underfoot but not unappreciated, a good pair of socks makes more impact on happiness than most anything else.

How can America be Canada's jockstrap if we have Florida: America's Dangly Bits? Have you ever heard of a jockstrap with it's own dangly bits?
