Awesome. Thoroughly, thoroughly awesome. My Canadian half applauds you, even as my American half continues to retch at the idea of consuming poutine with maple syrup.

Also, my spell-check apparently objects to the word "poutine". @$%# you, spell check.

Captcha :Carry a towel. Hmm, apparently Captcha believes I am going on a journey. Maybe to Canada?

So that's what Poutine looks like, chips with lumpy gravy.

Would an English person be Homo Britus or Homo Englus?

Hmmm, never had syrup in my poutine but I do live near a restaurant dedicated to poutine with a wide variety of toppings. Maybe they have that option, eh?

Anesthetic, better anesthetic, and minibar peanuts (ands lots of 'em).
Good thing that Living in Canada discount covers all that. Good to know.

CAPTCHA: face the music
Well, that's what a rude Canadian does, I guess. While being deported to Butte.

Quite possibly my favourite Canada day episode you've done, Canadaman entries not withstanding.

While this is good, I think that doing The Whole Story might have been better.

Why didn't the video video explain why Canadians are unable to spell the name of their own country? If the inhabitants are called "Canadians," then the name of the country should be either "Canadi" or "Canadia."

On the other hand, if the name of the country is actually "Canada," then then name of its inhabitants should be "Canadans" (not to be confused with Canoe Dan).

Question: I found myself wearing a plaid shirt today, and that picture of poutine up there looks delicious. Am I turning into a Canadian? Is it infectious?

And I thought that Shepard danced bad....

Also that last shot at the end with Paul and Kathleen was amazing, runner up goes to James and his marvelous poutine.

Is it weird that I, as a Canadian have never had poutine?

Always fun seeing the jabs at my home nation.

Although the 'eh' thing continues to mildly annoy me, as most people in western Canada only use it as an affirmation.

"How about this weather, eh?"

Yes, yes it is, you should rectify this. No true Canadian should live without tasting this gooey, delicious, artery blocking, so-bad-for-you-yet-so-good delicacy.

Thank you, LRR, for bringing word of our country's customs. Maybe now the world can understand the strange nature of the Canadian and no longer fear it.

(though it could use more Tim Horton's though)

Never saw the appeal in poutine though. Maybe it's because I don't like gravy, but I can never eat a full cup of one. Fries and syrup are great, though never had them together. I'll make note to try it.

My "delicious-yet-so-bad-for-you" food is more the medium-spice chicken sandwich from California Sandwiches (a Toronto-based Italian sandwich chain), though it's more unhealthy on the standpoint that these sandwiches are about the size of your face. That's why it's best to usually cut it in half and save the rest for later. One half is more than enough for your average lunch. These sandwiches are also about $10 LOL.

I have to agree. Even though I'm not Canadian, I was raised speaking British English, so people think I come from Canada from my accent. This whole episode made me laugh so hard.

Poutine. It makes me proud to be Canadian. And now thanks to this video I have an excuse for being fat; I'm bulking up for the winters.
