tim horton? sawdust donut.

Not quite Dunkin's but far better than the joke known as Krispy Creme.

french canadians? so rude and stinky not even the germans wanted them.

Yet still preferable to Mexicans.

Probably true...lots of frigates, corvettes and destroyers, although I believe there were two small flattops.

Come on, give 'em credit, they are the only country that ever taught Frenchmen how to skate.

The Mrs. and I visited a restaurant in the middle part of our great commonwealth, where upon the following dialog occured between the Pretty Young Waitress and LiM, Mrs. LiM looking on bemused:

PYW: May I recommend our French Canadian meat pie?
LiM: Is it made with real French Canadians?
PYW: Yup!
LiM: Are they fresh?
PYW: Fresh trapped the night before

So, of course, I was cornered. After a hearty repast of FCMP, the PYW returned for round II.

PYW: How was your French Canadian Meat Pie?
LiM: I distinctly tasted Anglophone!
PYW: Huh?

Game, set match, to LiM.

The state of our medicine is a sad affair, I keep telling people we need to privatize, and I think they want to lock me up and throw away the key.

No disagreement, but if we ever actually implement ObamaCare, Health Canada will seem like paradise by comparison.

In the war of 1812, started by America , Canadians pushed the Americans back past their White House. Then we burned it, and most of Washington ...We got bored because they ran away.
Then, we came home and partied....

Sorry, but you did not burn our White House--that was done by a British force that sailed in from Bermuda. Meanwhile, in the summer of 1814, we were beating you guys at the Chippewa River and Fort Erie.

If I saw that on the streets here, I’d slap it upside the head, for being completely off the map. Canada is like #38 in the world, US is much higher, and they are going around bragging we have health care? What a bunch of indoctrinated idiots (meaning the girls in the photo).

Google “Avro Arrow.”

Oh please. Better yet, google “Avro Arrow myths.”

Then you will learn it was a so-so plane that never was tested fully because there was no market for it. It had a 600 mile range. The US had scores of planes that died in the test phase, for cost overruns, or being behind on technology, or design problems. They were soon forgotten about and life went on. Canada had this one hanger queen and has built an industry praising it’s hoped-for performance.

Listen to this Canadian professor:

26. Our Country is the only one to have plastic money bills in 2011...

Wanna see a plastic Vietnamese banknote that is several years older than that?

Please continue to insist on privatisation of your health care; you may very well achieve that victory in my lifetime.
