We need our own thread for this topic.

I can't think of anything we say, but other people are saying

1. Canada is a bilingual country.
Truth: Most people speak either English or French, bot not both.

2. Canada has great and clean nature.
Truth: Canadans throw away more garbege than Americans.
Our rivers are very poluted

3. Canada is a large country.
Truth: No. Unless you count the unuseable frozen parts.

---Official Languages equal two and two are needed for Federal Government. I know many many people who can speak both.

2. Canada has great and clean nature.
Truth: Canadans throw away more garbege than Americans.

---Facts on this please. Our population is 1/10 of America. This is just stupid.

3. Canada is a large country.
Truth: No. Unless you count the unuseable frozen parts.
--Yes, Canada is a large country..because large means land area.

Canada is not reliant on the American economy to keep it going.

I think a more amusing/telling thread would be some of the things Canadians say about America.

Now, if this thread was, "Things Canadians go on and on about" I would agree with you.

Canadians are so loved around the world.

Fact: Most of the world don't have a clue about Canada, so it's hard for them to an opinion PERIOD, good or bad.
