We might bitch about taxes, health care, and the never-ending onslaught of elections, and we may not be as vocal about our patriotism as our friends down south, but make fun of our mounties or, worse yet, our hockey teams, and we'll sic a moose on your ass. We have this friendly looking flag: Politicians who go on TV and make fun of themselves: And we use funny words like "garburator", "eavestroughs", "kerfluffle" and "serviette", whilst eating Timbits & poutine using cutlery, and washing it all down with a nice glass of pop. We like our supermarkets and convenience stores free of liquor, our cigarette packaging as off-putting as possible, and our Cuban cigars legal. Our Mountain Dew might not have any caffeine in it, but we make up for that by letting you drink while you're still a teenager. Happy Canada day, folks. My fellow Canucks: Any plans for tonight? Watching the fireworks, getting shitfaced, even just staying in and playing around on the computer? Did you don a red piece of clothing today? Any rub-on tattoos? How will you/are you/did you celebrate this Canada day?

Happy Canada Day, you crazy accented folks.

Pfft, your accent's exactly the same as Americans'. I somewhat resent this, eh. I see your accent comes from from western Canada. If you're touring the Atlantic part, it's recommended that you don't use that word as a form of punctuation as it's easy to pick out the tourists from the locals.

But I ain't Canadian. I'm American. Specifically, SoCal. My mode of communication includes like the adverbial use of the word like.

Pfft, your accent's exactly the same as Americans'. I'm American, damn you! How dare you confuse me with a syrup-swilling, hockey-loving socialist?! Yeah but if I find a Canadian with my Southern drawl, I'll die laughing.

Yeah but if I find a Canadian with my Southern drawl, I'll die laughing. >.> I'm a Vermonter whose family comes from Maine. I'm hard to distinguish from a Canuck. Unless they're old timers or from the other coast. Also, screw you, syrup is awesome! ...hat sentence looks wrong.

We know how to use 'eh' out west too. Compare someone from Texas to someone from Newfoundland, and get back to me.

Psh, America had a day before it was cool. This is just an obvious attempt to steal America's July 4 thunder.
Plus I liked the Canadian Red Ensign better.

Texas hasn't seceded yet? No. Sadly.

But the flag's got pointy bits in the maple leaf. That isn't nice.

That's the secret warning: Don't insult our hockey teams.
