I never heard of them, but I'll take your word on it. You haven't steered me wrong yet.” 8:47:30 PM 10/28/02 “jim carrey,phil hartman,shania twain,alanis morissette,sctv,celine dion(not so good),nickelback,jillian barberie(hottie on fox),PAM ANDERSON.

Go Blackhawks!!!!! 8)” 8:53:09 PM 10/28/02 “Don't forget my grandparents. Otherwise I would be speaking francais.” 8:57:33 PM 10/28/02 “How do you say I love my Bearikade in French?” 8:58:45 PM 10/28/02 “ursa knot waantid” 9:02:25 PM 10/28/02 “Canada is cool.” 9:05:52 PM 10/28/02 “Canada is the number one supplier of foreign oil to the U.S. - larger than Saudi Arabia. Canada supplies us with a larger number of immigrants per year than any other country. Canada is our largest foreign trading partner. Oh, BTW, half of that trade passes through and over the tunnel and bridges in the Detroit area. Upper Midwesterners probably have more in common with Ontarioans than than we have with Californians or Southerners. Canada isn't bad. But it's not utopia. And it helps that they'll never have to spend more than a few pennies on national defense.” 9:24:00 PM 10/28/02 “Canada sucks! Population est. 20 Million (all suck) Anti-gun loving socialist. Tilt's adopted homeland. Mexico sucks too!” 10:42:38 PM 10/28/02 “bob hope? bleah” 11:48:53 PM 10/28/02 cool places in canada “algonquin provincial park killarney provincial park banff national park quetico” 12:56:22 AM 10/29/02 When is the best time to attack??? “Is all I want to know.” 1:07:40 AM 10/29/02 :o) “When is the best time to attack??? -Briar Rabbit While we're all watching the next winter olympics in which the Canadian hockey teams (Male and Female teams) beat up on the U.S teams again. hee hee Btw, we're the buffer zone between the U.S and the Russians.” 1:40:57 AM 10/29/02 “Geobeet - it's "Le Bongo."” 5:25:18 AM 10/29/02 Cape Breton Barbarians! “Canada ROCKS! I think if the real Maine can't secede it should become part of Canada. >:D hockey is good too!” 6:42:39 AM 10/29/02 “Bob Hope is a wussie... sorry Geobeet. ULTRA, Tilt had two Irish grandmothers and grandfathers of English and German extraction. He took two years of French in high school when he should've taken Spanish. Pog Ma Hoin! (that's 'kiss my ass' in Gaelic)” 6:50:20 AM 10/29/02 “Kindereggs from Canada? I think they started in Germany. While they don't like to be seen as the same as us, they almost always stand beside us in time of trouble. Canadian Bacon? ![]() President: I want to say to Prime Minister MacDonald: Surrender her pronto, or we'll level Toronto. Sometimes I think Canadians are Saints to put up with us.” 7:03:25 AM 10/29/02 “Oh Canada! The best rises to the top of North America! Mount Carlton Provincial Park, New Brunswick Forillon National Park, Gaspe Peninsula, Quebec Chic Choc Mountains, Gaspe Peninsula, Quebec Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia And let's not forget Newfoundland!” 7:27:44 AM 10/29/02 I love this thread, BUT.... “Upstate New York gets all my recreation bucks. It's funny how we Canadians have a love-hate relationship with our own country. Our humour rocks, however, and I wonder just how many of you guys see what's going on on the Red Green show because it's one huge inside joke. If you have a chance, lobby your local PBS to get 'Escape from the Newsroom'. It played on CBC last night and it was outrageously funny. It pisse$ me off that our parks charge an entry fee and we get lousy park maintenance. New York State rocks.” 8:36:23 AM 10/29/02 Good things Canada sent us “My Mother! with out her I would not have gotten my trail name MAPLELEAF” 8:39:15 AM 10/29/02 $hit, I forgot.... “EH?! All together, guys, I'm a man, I'm sorry. I can change, if I have to... I guess.” 8:41:59 AM 10/29/02 “I read recently that nearly 4 in 10 Americans favor annexing Canada. I think that is about the same percentage as those who favor war with Iraq if things were to get messy and drawn out. I think given the support, we should try out the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive war a little closer to home before we go traipsing around the world invading countries that oppose our ideas. We could portray it as a ‘liberation’. We’d be saving them from a crummy dollar and giving them a chance to be part of a first-rate country.” 10:05:03 AM 10/29/02 “....and wreck their health care system in favor of for-profit medicine.” 11:48:40 AM 10/29/02 12:19:17 PM 10/29/02 “Dangit, I've had the Canadian national anthem in my head all day. Can't get rid of it. Ug!” 1:49:22 PM 10/29/02 For you Smiley “Oh say can you see By the dawn's early light” 1:51:21 PM 10/29/02 “Smiley Girl - We can't get rid of it, either ;-)” 3:26:10 PM 10/29/02 “Actually, Canadians seem to love their guns. They own lots of 'em. They just don't get all kinds of paranoid 'n' apopleptic about regulating them.” 3:30:15 PM 10/29/02 “You can have ours. Nobody can sing it, but it's the only one we have.” 3:31:02 PM 10/29/02 “Geo, I'm not sure that's any better!” 3:31:03 PM 10/29/02 “"Nobody can sing it" Goebeet Oh if only you were right.” 3:41:05 PM 10/29/02 “Has it ever been sung or played the same way twice? I rest my case. "America the Beautiful" can be sung, sounds better, and expresses better ideas. It's also more stately. Stately is good. I like stately. I like Oh Canada better than the Star Strangled Banner. But then I don't hear it all the time. Maybe national anthems are like newspapers: the other guy's are always better than yours.” 3:44:53 PM 10/29/02 “Good things Canada sent us... Jennifer Granholm, the next governor of Michigan.” 4:42:24 PM 10/29/02 “Yawn! 8|” 4:43:13 PM 10/29/02 “Hi CMB! How's it going?” 4:53:20 PM 10/29/02 “Too good to be true! How about you? 8)” 4:54:25 PM 10/29/02 “How do you get 100 Canadians into a swimming pool?” 5:08:12 PM 10/29/02 “I don't know how do you? 8)” 5:10:23 PM 10/29/02 “Ask nicely.” 5:11:33 PM 10/29/02 “If we tried to take Canada, they'd probably kick our butts and before we know it we'd be singing Oh Canada, our national animal would be the beaver, we'd be watching curling, and eating poutine. Worse yet, we'd be stuck with all of those revolting French Canadians!” 6:40:39 PM 10/29/02 “Ok how do you? Please??? 8D” 6:52:35 PM 10/29/02 “LOL! That's the answer. "ask nicely" (or "say please")” 7:36:51 PM 10/29/02 “So Gear Slut, which fantasy are you talking about? Canadians kick U.S butts....only when hell freezes over. We can only do that in hockey events. ;O)” 1:21:02 AM 10/30/02 I Love Canada “My wife and I have been to: The Bay of Fundy Cape Breton Island Vancouver Island Canadian Rockies” 5:54:48 AM 10/30/02 Okay, okay, “our anthem sucks. How do you translate, 'Up against the wall, muthafukka.' into Canadian? 'Now please wait just a minute, officer.' (credits to the National Lampoon.” 8:01:42 AM 10/30/02 Like a different country “I was in Montreal during a transit strike one summer, walking down Rue Ste. Catherine. Traffic was heavy, and a cop was standing in the middle of an intersection directing traffic. He motioned for the traffic to stop, and a guy blazed through the intersection just missing the cop. The cop just waved his hand at the guy as if to say, "Go on, get outa here!" Further down the rue, a car was double parked, causing a massive jam. A cop pulled up behind him, got out of the car, spoke a few words, the man drove off, the cop drove off, and traffic began moving again. In the US, both incidents would have triggered tickets, but more importantly, traffic would have been stopped while the cops wrote the tickets. Just amazing!” 9:24:02 AM 10/30/02 “I'd like to personally thank Canada for decriminalizing the possession of marijuana. Sincerely, Troll 420” 7:07:35 AM 10/31/02
