I should get a shirt that says 'Korea: 2300 years of history'.
I'd probably get knifed.

Here's a beer ad from 2002 that became a national anthem of sorts.
http://www.coolcanuckaward.ca/joe_canadian.htm
"Hey, I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader....
I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled....
and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,
although I'm certain they're really really nice.
I have a Prime Minister, not a president.
I speak English and French, not American.
And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'.
I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.
I believe in peace keeping, not policing,
diversity, not assimilation,
and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.
A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch,
and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed' !!!!
Canada is the second largest landmass!
The first nation of hockey!
and the best part of North America
My name is Joe!!
And I am Canadian!!!"
I prefer this version:
"I am not a hacker or terrorist
I do not like C�line Dion or Shania Twain but I am glad they are getting rich.
I do know Richy and Sally from Canada, but they aren't nice as you think.
I am ruled by a rich white Prime Minister not a rich white President.
I don't know French but I can converse fluently in American...
...and I pronounce it A BOOT not a big shoe.
I can proudly sew my flag on my backpack, because even though no one realizes that we are just as guilty as everyone else for the fate of the 3rd world, everyone blames America.
When I am at home I realize I have better not protest deforestation or sexist dictators without risking a face full of pepper spray and a criminal record.
I believe in peacekeeping, even if it means killing Somali teenagers for fun
I believe in turning back boatloads of Chinese immigrants, a failing health care system, and late night cable porn disguised as art, and that the beaver is a truly proud and a beautiful part of the female body.
I believe the French should whine about anything, and the English should apologize.
...And that is pronounced zed not zee: ZED! That is how the queen told us how to pronounce it.
Canada is the second largest land mass in the world,
the second nation in hockey,
and the best part of the northern 3rd of America!
MY NAME IS JOE,
AND UNTIL WE ARE ANNEXED BY THE STATES,
I AM CANADIAN!!!
The Quebec version is also pretty good:

I saw this *beep* from, as I recall, Truro, N.S. at The Dome in Halifax just after his ad was first aired on television in H'Fax.
Bluenosers, is this anti-American load an E.F.L.er nowadays? |

I lived in The Great White North for about fourteen years of my life, took a bunch of Canadian Studies courses in Charlottetown and Halitosis, and feel that you're wrong about your second point, eh.
Stay groovy, eh.

My dad has had a couple of encounters with morons as well.
First time, they had just dropped me off in Pennsylvania because I was working there for the summer. After that they were heading home and about an hour from the border stopped to ask directions on how to get to Canada. The lady at the gas station had no clue what Canada was, so my dad asked her what she thought came after Buffalo. She said, "the Ocean".
Second time, they were down in Mississippi playing golf. About 8 of them total. They were checking into the Best Western and when they were paying with their credit card, the lady asked to see ID. When they produced their Canadian driver's licenses, she told them that they were fake ID's and she wouldn't take them. Then they showed her their passports and she didn't know what a passport really was. They brought in another person and they also didn't know what Canada was. My dad and his friends started getting angry, so the hotel called the police. WHen the police came, they basically told the hotel workers they were morons. Anyways, after they got back to Canada, my dad let Best Western know what happened. Everybody in the group got 2 free nights at Best Western anywhere in the USA. |
These stories are hilarious and believable. Being from the South, #2 had me falling out of the chair. |

Really. Every Canadian I meet has some story about how someone in Kentucky or Ohio asked them if they had a pet beaver or lived in an igloo. Then, they of course, can't give any specifics about the story or they change it and say, "Well, it happened to a friend of mine and I wasn't there."
Right... I think that they broadcast these stories on TV so many times that everyone thinks it actually happens. These are the things that make Canadians feel warm and fuzzy by trying to make Americans look bad, and that is why they all assume these stories to be true. |
Rick Mercer's "Talking to Americans" look it up. I think there's some on youtube.
Wahahaha! |
