When my fiance flew to Canada to meet my parents she had a whole bunch of students who were going to study abroad in Canada on her flight. They all spoke such horrible English that she had to all guide them through airports she'd never been to since none of them could understand the English signs What's the point of going abroad solely study the language when you can't even be arsed to study enough of the language to find you way around at all before you leave  |

If not, you could always ask our neighbours, apparently we have pretty good bacon. I'm Canadian and I have to ask: what the hell is this "canadian bacon" that they're always ordering on US TV shows? Is it normal bacon, or peemil bacon?

Dang! Peameal bacon on pizza... that sounds pretty nasty. |

| Having worked at a pizza place in USA, Canadian bacon is thin sliced ham. Didn't Vancouver's b-ball team get exported to Memphis? Now their only team is a minor-leaguer that pays about $50-100 per game (from what I gather in American newspapers that don't care about Canada). |

Actually your right about Vancouver having lots of Koreans to be more specific its Burnaby that's Korean I couldn't even find my travel agent because it was written in Korean.
I think Koreans going to Canada will experience more culture shock then foreigners get here. The sheer amount of different nationalities will probably be the biggest shock. |
