    That's just about it. I remember my dad telling me that when he and some friends went to Yankee Stadium for the 1950 ASSemby, they were at some restaurant and they had the waitress believing that there was all snow and ice in Canada (it was July), that they had no electricity and that they had to take the dog sled across the border to the USA. Ever see Rick Mercer's "Talking With Americans"? Oh dear god in heaven, I just about pissed myself laughing at their ignorance at anything to do with Canada.

    19. We still know what to do with all the parts of a buffalo
    20. We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, velcro, zippers, insulin, penicillin, zambonis, the telephone and short wave radios that save countless lives each year

    RE: Smelly people with big hats. Even Mexican people are starting to pack it on. I have friends in Mexico City and they drink pop by the gallon. Brainwashed by Coke,etc. Otherwise they would be ok as tortillas are not very fattening by themselves.

    Perhaps the government of the day wants you to remain intelligence challenged. How else would someone vote for Bush?

    Ps. > a proud Canuck!
