Interesting... I had no idea that the Canadian heritage was so rich in tradition and history. How embarrassed I would be should I be confronted with my ignorance by a notable Canadian such as President McKenzie (Bob or Doug... I forget).

Live and learn...

King Druss,

of course you had to spy to find out those fine details of the greatly cultured life here... May Day however is really the first day in which we can stop paying taxes.. then we begin again May 2nd
and it is not true that our nasal passages (also a fine bestseller about young Canadian teenagers) thaw out.. they just rest between freeze and allergy..

if you have had the pleasure of Gennesee beer, you also know where the beaver rests when the river moves south

Bob & Doug?.. Mitchie.. those two hosers are the summation of various fine moments in Canadian history... drinking Canadian beer, and spending US $.. that's the real bacon.. but maybe we could make an exception for the hosehead who won a gold medal in Nagano then got caught with marijowana in him... unless he shared

there's a Canadian table wine?.. except for the Ice Wine... yummmmm

being Canadian means never having to explain AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
and really being able to say %$uck ^%$#!!.. and then, pardon my french... and mean it

also we're known for our casualness.. when we say, for instance, we're going to Maple Leaf Gardens to see Bryan Adams (once part of the Addams family til he changed his name and moved north), we mean just that: we're going there, and he'll be wandering around

and having a name like Humble Habib
