I've been to Canada twice: the first time I went camping had the craziest, weirdest nightmares I've ever had; when I woke up my eyes were all swollen. The second time I got kicked out right away because me and my friends were singing in their empty Customs lobby.

Here's what we do know about Canada:
1.) Canadian National Tower in Toronto is the largest freestanding structure in the world. None of our scientists can figure out it's purpose, but neither can theirs. It is the height of six American football fields, or five Canadian football fields, as if Canadian football really counts. It's obviously there to send nuclear attack warnings to secret nuclear missile silos in the Yukon Territory, or was simply built because they have a serious inferiority complex. 2.) It's freezing cold. 3.) Canadians are always dreaming up a lotta ways to ruin our lives: the metric system, for goodness' sake! Celsius! Neil Young! 4.) They walk among us: William Shatner, Michael J. Fox, Monty Hall, Mike Meyers, Alex Trebek. All of them Canadians. All of them here. 5.) There is no Canadian culture. I've never read any Canadian literature. And when was the last time you said, "Honey, let's stay in and order some Canadian food."? 6.) Like maple syrup, Canada's evil oozes over the United States. |

1) That tower is in toronto and as all canadians know torontonians are crazy, they an american wanna be city which disgusts the rest of Canada. So don't blame that tower on Canada. 2) We can't help that you are pansies who can't handle a little bit of cold. And freezing cold is just a state of mind. Once you are used to a temperature it isn't that cold anymore. 3) Now wait a minute, don't blame us for the metric system, we certainly didn't start it. And Celcius way better than Fahrenheit. 4) So what we Canadians like to share our talent, though we sincerely apologize for Celine Dion. 5) There is canadian literature, poetry, and most definitely a culture. We can't help it if americans can't even find Canada on a map, nevermind find canadian literature. There are many dishes that have a canadian origin: Ginger beef, Chinese smorgasbord, maple syrup, Butter tarts, Nanaimo bars, Canadian pizza, Lumberjack's Breakfast, Barbecue, to name a few. 6) Maple syrup is awesome, your just bitter that the only war that the US has ever loss was with Canada.(look it up) |

I put Canada in the top three places I would like to visit, for me the cold weather is an attractive feature of the country as I much prefer a colder climate and I have always found Canada's history very interesting, beginning with the French and British colonies and now the growing feeling in Europe that Canada is more like the USA.
I have always been aware of a belief that Canada lacks it's own cultural identity and that it is just more a blend of the various influences it has been subject too over it's history, but I never accepted that, you can look at the USA and say the same, different areas have a different culture due to the history of each place, but there is still a national identity all it's own. I never understood why the USA stands against the metric system, it clearly works well enough for everyone else, can Americans just not understand it or is it just about being different?

I've never bee there, but I love the history of Canada, and have known many awesome Canadians.
One very special thing about Canada: It's where Seagull, Simon and Patrick, and all the other Godin Guitars are made. Those are amazing little guitars. Also, kayleekelly |
