Poll: Ask a Canadian

[Marmalade]

Why does Canada own so much? (Serious question.)

 

[Dublin Solo]

Haven't seen this type of thread for a while.

What's the school system like in comparison to that of Britian?

It depends on the province. I will not describe the one in Quebec, nobody cares, I'm sure. I can't tell for the others provinces and territories, though.

Ontario has 13 Grades

Alberta has 3 Levels of Primary Schooling (Elementary, Junior High and High School) whereas Saskabush only has 2 (Elementary and High School).

How's the general quality of life there?

We're usually up in the top 5 nations, so take what you will from that?

Well, what nation is top, then? And do they speak English?

 

[BloodyThoughts]

If WWIII hits, will Canada be the safest place to escape the stupidity of the war?

Cause I know, that I will go any place safe from stupidity...Why I am still in America, I don't know.

Oh, and is it true that you guys make the best beer in the world?

Oh, and one more thing...Waffles so kicks kittens ass!

Nope, no matter our stance if the US is fighting with someone in a serious and World War ish fashion, Canada will be a massive open avenue of attack or a massive gap in the US's defenses. Someone WILL try to conquer us and it won't be fun.

Oh, and is it true that you guys make the best beer in the world?

Partially true, we make damn good beer, but so do the Belgians, Dutch, Germans, Italians, French and hell, even you folks down in the US can make a damn good brew, you just have to look harder for it. Though the Wild Rose Brewery (Calgary, Alberta, Canada) had their Cherry Porter rated as one of the greatest beers in the world so... maybe?

[ScarlettRage]

Hello eh!

If you do want to ask a Canadian a question this is your chance, and yes I will answer ALL questions, yes ALL. Except ones protaining to my personal info, like bank info and such, but anything else is a go.

But please note Im not the Canadian ambasador to the escapist (Alothough that would be cool!) and other Canadians my give you diffrent answers.

Well lets get the questions flowing in, and have a nice day eh!

Hey Hows it going Eh?

They got rid of it about 6 years ago (it created a bit of a crunch for people trying to go into post secondary education.

We make the best beer in North America, but I don't think in the world. There is one particular Belgium beer that is the best beer I have ever had.

It was a very traumatic event, but since we have beaten the Russians and the Germans and in a couple of nights we will meet you in the finals and crush the Americans. As well tonight our women's team will prove once again that they are the best stick handlers in the world when they beat the Americans.

this thread will not end well like any other ask a threads

 

[Oldmanwillow]

What was it like when the USA hockey team beat the Canadian's 5 to 3? In Alaska we had a really big party.

 

[Sewblon]

Including taxes, how expensive is it to live in Canada? And what is your governments attitude towards the business class?

 

[Asturiel]

I'm Canadian, and I would like to know: do you think Canada has a culture of its own, or do you think it borrows so heavily from the world that it can't possibly be considered 'its own'?

Mix of both, frankenculture. We have our own, it just has alot of copyrights!

Are canadians good bassists?

Some, alot of them are better than you!
[sub]I kid I kid.[/sub]

How's the general quality of life there?

Good I think....

Are the girls in Vancouver as hot as I hear about?.

The Canadians I meet are always (absolutly always) nice and polite, is it a Canadian thing to be nice.

Because, we have our douchebags, but they are culled when they show signs of individuality!

We have turned into a facist dicatorship overnight *shhhhhhhhhh*

What's the school system like in comparison to that of Britian?

I dont think your forced to take frence or learn about Canadian history so I think I know theres a difference there

Is Canada Day just an excuse to get drunk as a skunk?

Mostly, kinda like the 4th of July.

It depends on the province. I will not describe the one in Quebec, nobody cares, I'm sure. I can't tell for the others provinces and territories, though.

I care, I'm curious!

Very likely, however our government is retarded too. And well very likely be supporting the US so...

Yes we do. Because we use awesome in all of the bottles!

How much maple syrup do you have in your home?

3 bottles at a minimum or somebody murederers somebody.

Depends if you like Maple syrup, bought some recently, ran out recently, or make stuff that requires it.

I think Norway holds the top spot in the world, at least if Wikipedia is to be believed

 

[AwesomeExpress]

Are you talking about land? Material possessions? Or do you mean we own as in we "pwn"? Tell me more, please.

EDIT: This was a responce to Marmalade's question "Why does Canada own so much?", I just hit 'reply' instead of 'quote'.
