[yewberry]

Oh, Canada, how lovely are thy branches--wait, that's not it.


I'd surely love a beer, even if national anthems aren't my forte.

[democracyindanger]

7. Make it Bryan Adams and then you're talkin'.

[bobthedrummer]

9. Some classic Max Webster would be appreciated too...

[greatauntoftriplets]

10. Speaking of Canada...

there's a new guy at work, originally born in Canada. He even lived for a time in the Yukon.

Can you spin "Canadian Railroad Trilogy"? Merci beaucoup, as they say in the province of Quebec, where the French-Canadian side of my family originated.

[ghostsofgiants]

[tuvor]

15. Can I tell my "Entering Courtenay" joke?

Signs at the entrance to my town...The town's called Courtenay....

Sorry.

[JVS]

17. Everyone sing

Le temps que l'on prend pour se dire: je t'aime
C'est le seul qui reste au bout de nos jours
Les voeux que l'on fait les fleurs que l'on seme
Chacun les récolte en soi-même
Aux beaux jardin du temps qui court

Gens du pays c'est votre tour
De vous laisser parler d'amour
Gens du pays c'est votre tour
De vous laisser parler d'amour

Le temps de s'aimer, le jour de le dire
Fond comme la neige aux doigts du printemps
Fêtons de nos joies, fêtons de nos rires
Ces yeux ou nos regards se mirent
C'est demain que j'avais vingt ans

Gens du pays...

Le ruisseau des jours aujourd'hui s'arrête
Et forme un étang ou chacun peut voir
Comme en un miroir l'amour qu'il reflète
Pour ces coeurs a qui je souhaite
Le temps de vivre leurs espoirs

Gens du pays...

I like that. There are "Other populated places" besides these miserable United States, places that have beer, especially!

[tuvor]

25. So you're down with OPP?

Sorry for the hopelessly dated attempt at humour.

[xmas74]

26. I'd prefer a whiskey or Scotch.

I'm not a big beer fan.

[TheMightyFavog]

[enigmatic]

33. I just came from Tim Hortons..

on my way back from work.

And I was listening to "Nautical Disaster" by The Hip on my mp3 player.

While wearing a Saskatchewan Roughriders shirt.

And I'm watching a tap of yesterday's Junior Men's Curling Final Mrs E taped for me.

I think I've been assimilated quite well...

[ghostsofgiants]

36. Not quite...

Not a single mention of hockey or the word "eh" in your post.

[enigmatic]

37. Oh Boy...

5 years, and I still can't work "eh" into my convos w/ anybody ;)

[ghostsofgiants]

38. Haha, you're gonna have to start working on that, eh.

[Robb]

45. Will I get boo'd for talking like one of the Mackenzie's?

I have been trying to absorb the culture in small doses over several years. I understand hockey. Where is the first place to go when I cross the border?

[Ladyhawk]

51. For heaven's sake, don't say anything bad about their beer! n/t

[yellowdogmi]

55. No I like my blue.

The best kind of beer is free beer. Second place any beer.

[MidwestMomma]

46. To paraphase our president...Canada is big!

:)

Thanks for the invite.

[Ladyhawk]

48. I have a friend, a new DUer, who lives near Saskatoon.

I've heard Saskatchewan is flatter than piss on a plate. Is this true?

[BikeWriter]

49. WTF? Are you serving gravy and cottage cheese on our fries, too?

:)

[Fox Mulder]

52. It's aboot time I go there, eh?

They're talking curling there, eh?

[EstimatedProphet]

56. I went to U of S for 2 years

Studied philosophy and Slavic Studies.

[LSK]

57. does it snow everyday up there or just every other day?

:crazy: :dunce: :silly:

[HEyHEY]

58. Hasn't snow here (Vancouver) in over a month

[BikeWriter]

59. I talked to a dear Friend of mine in Prince George, B.C. this AM.

She said they'd had snow there. She was complaining she'd busted her ### on some black ice, as a matter of fact.

[HEyHEY]

60. Hmm.. PG is about an 11-hour drive North

SO, Vancouver is still in a safe place!

[BikeWriter]

61. This young Lady has invited me up there...

Between you and me she's proposed marriage, too. She is a Doll, and we've been close online Pards for about six years now. You have some super women in Canada, Bro! ;-)

[HEyHEY]

62. Yeah, when they aren't getting sick with FOndue poisoning

[BikeWriter]

63. ROFLMBO! This Lady has never mentioned that ailment...

She works hard for a living, is a confirmed Liberal, and is a card carrying member of a First Nations tribe.

[NMMNG]

64. Hello!

Oh wait, you said sane.

[BikeWriter]

65. Buffy, he posted this in The Lounge, so we're eligible to answer.

:)

[NMMNG]

66. Whew, that's good to know.

I was worried there for a moment. :crazy:

[BikeWriter]

67. Yes'm, sanity has never been a requirement here.

;-)

[terrya]

68. I love Tim Hortons coffee. And a question:

Why is it "Tim Hortons" and not "Tim Horton's". I've always wondered about that. :shrug:

[Hand]

71. Insh'Allah...

Just like I live on Purcells Cove Road. Actually, it's all part of a subtle Canadian plot to drive everyone else nuts. :silly:

[DanCa]

69. Can you put on some barenaked ladies please :D

Either a cd of the band or a video of really bare naked ladies.

[Crazy Dave]

70. HEyHEY

When's the last time you guys heard a "thanks again" for welcoming the stranded Americans up there during the 9/11 crisis? You guys took good care of everyone and welcomed them into your homes as unless they were Saudi citizens or friends of the Bush family, they couldn't fly and were stranded.
I'll say it one more time,

THANKS CANADA! :toast:

[Hand]

72. You're quite welcome!

It was quite amazing--I think there were about 12,000 people here in Nova Scotia and another several thousand in Newfoundland--in many cases, some of the poorer folk in North America helping some of the better off. Some lasting connections were forged during that time.
