Someone once said that living in Canada is like being in a studio apartment above a really good party.

A truly outstanding civilization would be one that combines French cuisine, British style and American technology. Unfortunately Canada combines British cuisine, French technology and American style.

Then again, Canada is a nice place to build cars and purchase oil.

Maybe it's like a luggage rack on top of gigantic SUV - It's where we put our baggage.

The world is like one big family. The big dad is America, Mother Russia is the mother of course, China and India are the two sibling in constant rivalry, you have the pretty daughter who has a mean streak in France, you have the geeky little brother in Germany, and then you have Canada.
Canada is the cousin with Down's Syndrome everyone in the family loves and cares for. He's always got a smile on his face like a kid with Down's Syndrome, he's quite naive, is timid, insecure, and quite "slow", but in all harmless as long as you don't actually give him any real responsibility.

In the Special Olympics of life Canada is #1!
Just ask our Toronto/Montreal/Ottawa intelligensia.
