Canadians are our friendly, but backward neighbors to the North. Their lower medical costs and associations with French people frighten and confuse us. Also your bacon is weird, but tasty nonetheless. Also while your side has the bigger portion of Niagara Falls I have heard that the U.S. side is the better view.

I've heard they like hockey.

Otherwise, you're cool people. And you're a HAT!

And America is the cooky-looking head.

Does that make Mexico our goatee or our freakish neck?

(by the way, Canada is a comically oversized and roomy hat ;) )

i believe everything South Park taught me about Canada.

Take what the simpsons say about Canada
"The CN Tower is closing soon"
"Would an American dollar change your mind"
"AMERICAN CURRENCY! When would you like your eggs sir?"
lol back when that joke worked, and wasn't the other way around.

SilentHunter7:
They invented Hockey, so they cant be ALL bad ;)

We invented basketball too. We invented alot of things, like poutine. Mmmmm poutine.

lol oh the simpsons. You've got to love how that episode is like 4 years old, and now our dollar (the Loonie, to ye foreigners) is stronger than the american dollar. As for basketball, you've got to laugh at how the country that invented the sport only has one professional team. And as for poutine....mmmmm, poutine.

Canada is like America's kick ass little brother.

Canada: "Where ya goin' U.S.?"

America: "I'm goin' to war."

Canada: "War!?...Can I come?"

America: "OK...but you should probably ask mom and dad first."

Canada: "Mom! Dad! Can I go to war with America?"

Britain: "It's OK by me, sweety!"

France: "You're dead to me."

(/joke)

But seriously, I think that Canadians are cool in their own way. They don't mess with other people, but other people certainly regret messing them. That's how they roll.

Haha. I have no real opinion on Canada sence I have never been their and as far as I know, I don't know any Canadians personally. But it was funny. The French father thing was the best part.

You mean smell like paper?

If this is true then it would be an interesting consequence of the ink, since a Canadian dollar and and American dollar is made of otherwise identicle material.

And I love that our money's green, it allows for so many plant-cash puns.

I think that Americans (That I hang around at least) look at Canada like this: America kicks serious ass, but were also stupid about it and end up acting like jackasses. Were like the guy at the party who is loud and funny and charismatic, who everyone just loves to be with, then drinks too much beer, throws up all over everything and gets the cops called after he randomly starts fighting with some guy for no reason. Canada is like the laid back guy at the party, sits in the corner, chats with a few friends and relaxes without being too memorable, but no one has anything against him cause he brought some food, has a few good laughs, and offers to be the designated driver at the end of the night.

I know Americans also appreciate Canada for there more liberal government which SHOULD be giving us ideas, being a place that us Vermonters kinda want to succeed to come typical election times, and give us the piece of mind that comes with knowing that if we are every in a foreign country, we can cover our asses by saying were from Canada.

While you're at it, put natives canadians, africans and asians.

Of course, we "seem" to be nice people. Truly we are, but don't say the contrary or else things will go bad.

I've liked a lot of your stand up comedians, and of course, your film guys gave out a grant so 'Cube' could be made, so more points there.

I guess I've always seen Canada as the laidback, easy going, 'dont get mad, let it go man' kinda part of America, I know you're not part of America, but I'm sure you know what I mean.

In summary, sure I know hardly anything about you guys, but I'm all for you!

From SE England btw

Thank you very much for recognizing the awesomeness that is 'Cube'! I love how that movie was paid for by the Canadian Government. Also, our comedians rule.

Before you say anything I will say "Yes, Yes I am prone to sterotyping"

When I think "America" I think this guy.

And when I think "Canada" I think these guys.

Both are pretty silly. But Canada has awesome animals, and they're not fat or screaming at you (the Canadians that is, not their animals).

As a canadian I'm totally cool with everything you just said excpet for one thing.
Americans covering their asses by saying they're canadian.
I mean, I'd be cool with even that if I knew for sure no american is ever going to pretend to be a canadian and act like a total jerk for it.

Anyway, there are easy ways to tell a canadian from an american, especially with a few clever questions about what every canadian knows. People should learn them.

Canada, The US and Britain all went to a party.

The US drank a little too much, picked a fight with a less popular kid than he, and proceeded to kick his ass until the other party goers stepped in.

Britain cheered America on from the sidelines, got a little bit drunk and began to sign songs about how awesome he is. Before getting into an insult match with the captain of the soccer team Italy, and his best friend France.

Canada sat in the back smoking a reefer, sincerely apologizing to all his European and Asian friends for the outburst, then proceeded to make out with Amesterdam, the hot chick.

Our biggest non-sport related contribution to the world is bagged milk.
At first you think "Thhat's silly, it will never work", then after a while of trying it you say "Holy crap, this is genius!"

I have given this a lot of thought in the past. After quite a bit of pondering, I believe I know the truth about the Canadians.

If you watch the news, you never really hear about the Canadian Military. Obviously they must have one, but no one seems to report on them or even see them. This was my first clue in that something was odd. A country with no visible military force? Interesting.

I also took note that no one ever seems threatened by the Canadian Government. No country on earth seems to dislike the Canadians. How strange that they have no enemies.

Almost as if all the other countries in the world are brainwashed.

Now, no matter what you say, humans do not have the technology to go into the brain and rewrite emotions and memories, but surely some space faring race has gained this ability. This is what gave it away. The Canadians have surpassed all other nations on Earth, and are actually colonizing space. Their military is fighting wars on Venus and Mars, and the petty fights of Earth are beneath them.

Soon, when the world economy collapses and we have no way to survive, they will open up one of their colonies to the pitiful earthlings and allow us to live in what will equate to space projects. As their slaves in mining colonies, we will have to earn our freedom either saving every penny we make, or fighting in specially sanctioned deathmatches in repurposed facilities across space.

One day, someone will win this tournament, and gain their freedom. Using a time vortex manipulation device, they will send their story back to the past, years ago from now were someone will locate it and try to prepare the earth for that day. They will open a company and build a game. A game that shows the future of our race.

That game is Unreal Tournament.

It is our future. Get prepared. Watch Canada for the signs of the end, and you might save your freedom.

Easy going, laid back folks that are a great source of pot, beer, poutine, and timbits. They're polite and their politics arn't hindered by pandering to folks who let a bible do their thinking for them.

On the whole I'm quite fond of Canadians.

Granted they did inflict Nickleback on the rest of the world, and the quebecois can be rather douchy at times (though they throw a decent party) ... but I wouldn't go so far as to blame the whole of Canada for that.

My last girlfriend was from Canada.

Despite this, I think Canada is a fine country and I have a high regard for its people.
