Extra points for the New York Fries Poutine container. New York Fries is a Canadian fast-food restaurant that specializes in poutine.
Yes, I am aware that "New York Fries" is a stupid name for a Canadian restaurant. They would never start up a "Brantford Fries" in New York City.

They should say "Soury" for cutting filming during the middle of the mating dance! Such fascinating knowledge we've been denied!Souplex said:
OT: Funny and informative! Thanks for the biology lesson.
But why didn't you guys rip on French Canada for this one? I have that one song from the South Park episode Christmas in Canada stuck in my head.
New York Fries was the best poutine you could get? I mean they're not terrible and as far as fast food chains go they have by far the best poutine, but even so there have got to be better options than that. I live in bloody Calgary Alberta, so called 'heart of the west' and about as far removed as you can get from Quebec (Not counting actual measurable distance) and I can get better poutine.
Nothing about French or Quebec? ACTIVATE WOUNDED PRDE IN THREE, TWO, ONE.
All kidding aside, Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canucks.
By the way, silly question: if Wade Wilson (Deadpool) was part of the Weapon X project, do you think he has or used to have a Canadian visa? Or maybe even Canadian citizenship?
Because as the Marvel-verse taught me, Canada is nothing but a frozen wasteland drowning in a continuous blizzard, punctuated by the occasional cabin and aspen. Oh, and being a Socialist Democracy gives us enough money to fuck with someone's mutant powers and stick metal blades down the back of their hands.
Yay, comics!

OK, so,
I want to become one of you merry bunch. Where do I sign up? I am tired of not being a Canadian. And I am a big fan of your mating dance, eh.

You can win a citizenship in this great country of ours by simply rolling up the rim of Tim Hortons cups. 1 in every 20 wins a Canadian citizenship and 1 in 3,000 is sacrificed to the great yeti of Saskatchewan(our squarest province).Headdrivehardscrew said:
You must remember, the Mass Effect games were developed by Bioware, a CANADIAN company. And MaleShep was voiced by Mark Meer, also Canadian. They were simply trying to accurately replicate the dance of their people, and how nobody outside the country understands its beauty.Issurru said:
FemShep only slightly escapes this because she is voiced by Jennifer Hale, who, although born in Canada, was raised entirely in the United States, escaping some of the natural mating dance inherent in all Canadians. As such, this is why FemShep can rather easily learn the Argentine tango with Garrus in the Citadel DLC.
Really? A restaurant that specializes in Italian sandwiches, and its called 'Californian Sandwiches'? As a Californian, I am confused by this. What else is on the sandwich, I mean, the most common ingredient I find in so-called 'Californian' sandwiches is avocados, 'cuz we grow plenty of those here, along with a bunch of other crops.Raggedstar said:
I mean, California isn't even known for having Italian influences, that would be some of the Northeastern states like New York or New Jersey.
I think it might be more of a name than anything literal (though they don't advertise "Californian sandwiches". Just in the name). The first shop opened in 1960s Toronto (still exists today and I think the same family still owns it), so I don't know if there's any meaning behind the name. From your description of Californian cuisine, it's for sure more Italian than anything.ShogunGino said:
Uh, sorry, but not really. Avocados aren't an Italian crop, they originate from Latin America, and that's where they mostly come from: South America, Mexico, and some of the southern United States(which used to be part of Mexico).Raggedstar said:
Italian crops are things like tomatoes, zucchini, mushrooms, olives, and eggplant.
I mean, if I opened a 'Canadian Sandwiches' shop, and no poutine sandwiches, you'd probably get mighty pissed before saying 'sorry' a bunch of times and attempting the Canadian mating dance with one of the waitresses. /stereotype
