They do seem to MiLK it for all it is worth too. Haha, I made a funny!

It's interesting a lot of Canadians don't like the US or to be compared to the US, but if Canada didn't have trade with the US it would be like how Scotland is going to be if it breaks apart from the U.K.

I agree Canadians are ignorant. Some of them don't even know how to spell "Labour". Laughing
Truly a bunch of idiots who spout nonsense about things they know nothing about.

It's just so strange that there are so many terrible Canadians out there and all Americans are such upstanding citizens, yet nary a month goes by without a post like this, running pages and pages, going on and on bashing Canadians by Americans.

Sorry, have to go. Have to finish reading the definition of irony. There was just a link to this page.

Labor is the US spelling of Labour, you know North American (U.S.) English vs. Oxford (U.K.) English. Nobody usually cares about something as trifling as spelling labor, except of course for you. I wonder why?

I knew the differences in spelling. And now, so do you. It's nice you're still learning how to spell.
Incidentally, it wasn't me who highlighted your mistake in the other thread, thus making you wrong again in your claim that "Nobody usually cares about something as trifling as spelling labor, except of course for you". It seems another poster does.
This shows your ignorance in another thread, which begs the question - are you an ignorant American, or an ignorant Canadian?

I've said it to you before and I'll say it again, that kind of thinking that the anti-Canadian crowd is showing is why I'm an apologist. What you hear about Canada and react to, I hear about Korea.

What anti-Canadian crowd? The OP?

This thread is pretty tame.

For Americans to hate Canadians or Canadians hate Americans is moronic.
What? Still holding a grudge from the war of 1812 or american revolution?
Some nations had deep-rooted reasons for hate, North Americans are not on that list.
And I wish people would stop throwing around the word 'nationalism' like they are cleverly calling the country fascist.
Give me a break.

Jazzmaster is just a bigot.

I hate Canadians because they are the New York Yankees of ice hockey. This is not open to interpretation.

You mean Canadians as in Canadian hockey teams?
