And God Created Canada
Finally a joke that explains what it's like to be Canadian..
Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went
missing for six days. Eventually, Michael the archangel
found him, resting on the seventh day. He inquired of God,
"Where have you been? "
God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly pointed
downwards through the clouds, "Look Michael, look what
I've made." Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said,
"What is it?"
"It's a planet," replied God," and I've put LIFE on it. I'm
going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place of great
balance. Balance? inquired Michael.
Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and
wealth while Southern Europe is going to be poor;
the Middle East over there will be a hot spot.
Over there I've placed a continent of white people and
over there is a continent of black people," God continued,
pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely
hot and arid while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."
The Archangel, impressed by Gods work, then pointed to
a large landmass in the top corner and asked, What's that one?
Ah, said God. That's Canada, the most glorious place on Earth.
There are beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, streams and an
exquisite coastline. The people from Canada are going to be
modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be f
ound travelling the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard
working and high achieving, and they will be known throughout
the world as diplomats and carriers of peace.
I'm also going to give them super-human, undefeatable
ice hockey players who will be admired and feared by all who
come across them. Michael gasped in wonder and admiration
but then proclaimed; "What about balance, God? You said there
will be BALANCE!"
God replied wisely. "Wait until you see the loud-mouth bastards
I'm putting next to them...."
