    Why did you post anything in this thread? Why did you waste your time by reading responses.

    Don't bother responding to this guy, he's not worth it.
    The best thing about Canada: I don't live there!

    (<== biased towards breakfast) One of the best things about Canada is that you can buy Hello Kitty Pure Canadian Maple Syrup at YVR!

    ^ Wait, which non-Canadians marry their relatives? :huh:

    I love Canadians and am not picking a fight. Just curious...

    I believe in North Carolina you can.

    Whoa, I haven't married any of my relatives.... yet :laugh: :laugh:

    Tim Horton's. Double-double in the winter, iced cap in the summer!

    I'm living in the US now, can't say I miss the Montreal winters! But oh, Tim's, how I miss you.

    Beaver tails
    Quebec Style Poutine
    Clean water
    *ETA* RUSH, and Ryan Renolds :wink:


    I love the fact that I can dive in any direction from my town and be completley in the bush, isolated, with a lake/river as clear as can be!

    HAPPY CANADA DAY WEEKEND!

    I love Canada!! I only live about an hour and a half from the Blue Water Bridge, so I visit when I can. I also love Tim Hortons, but we have one on every other corner here in Michigan as well Well, at least where I'm at. Even the "uneducated" Canadians seem more intelligent than many college grads that I know here. Very friendly people, and boy are their streets clean!

    On a day like this.. sun is shining in Halifax, going to sit on the waterfront after work, have a beer, maybe a beavertail as well..enjoy the beauty, the water, the friendly people...being Canadian feels pretty damned good, really! :) Lots more of this will be happening on Sunday as well as we celebrate this great country we live in!!!

    Yet, you did. That's rather hypocritical of you.

    Are you happy I don't live in Canada? I'm sure you do, therefore, that would be the best part of Canada....that I don't live there.

    I do like visiting Winnipeg, though. Best steakhouse I've ever eaten is in Winnipeg. They have the best escargot and peppercorn steak on the planet. I do miss that place.
