After spending several years at uni. in Toronto I found that Torontonians have their segregations too. For the most part everyone that was not born in Toronto is alright so long as they don't try conforming too much to the city. Alot of the native Torontonians and especially GTA crowd are who the Nazi war criminals should have linked up with when they were on the lamb. Don Cherry could be the spokesman. They think the queen still runs the show or they are want to be Republicans. Toronto is like the big fish in the small pond of Canada. I had friends from NY city that said Torontonians have more attitude than they were use to. Its a great city with lots to offer and the natives are a minority, but unfortunately they are the voice of Toronto.
Anyone that has a problem with French Canadians doesn't belong in Canada. Remember the majority of Quebec wants to stay in Canada. i won't speak about the west because I don't know enough of their politics having never been there. Hopefully they never follow through on separation. From Sea to Sea -Big Sir John A. Mac.
Sorry one last thing to add. This message comes off pretty harsh so forgive me if you are a Torontonian that is on the up and up. After having experienced a lot of racism against French Canadians in that city I have some bitterness to get over. I had never thought of myself as a "French" Canadian until living in that city (being fluent in both languages and having parents from both English and French backgrounds). |

Kinda late with this reply, but I just got here....
I am from Central California, U.S.A.
I am proud to be an American, and when I go over to Japan, I will try to be a good example for my country. (Got a lot of work to do, thanks a lot, Mr. President....) |

| Why is there so many Canadians in Japan (on the basis of this poll at least)? Any theories...just curious. |
