Lordy, lordy, you Canucks have it good if this is the worst stuff you can dredge up!!
:D
I cannot make a list of ten, but here it goes:
Border customs on the Canadian side having some fascinating obsession with fresh fruit. Fer gosh sakes, your weather alone would kill most anything that MIGHT be on the fruit.
:D
Poutine.
Having some sort of inferiority complex when it comes to the US, when in fact we think you guys are the cool neighbors to the north and we would all be moving there except for your weather. (Lucky for you there, I guess!!
:D)
Your weather - either too much snow and "Arctic blasts/Alberta clippers/Canadian low pressure centers" OR ridiculous amounts of rain in the other places.
We cannot figure out your politics. Sorry, it just seems so mild compared to what goes on here, we cannot understand what you are bitching about, and it would indeed help if what goes on in Canada ever even got COVERED here.
:D
Did I mention poutine?
Quebec. Rather the obnoxious part of Canada, let them form their own country, who cares? They would be an island of extreme French surrounded on all sides by people who frankly do not care at all...they make the French in France sometimes seem like paragons of tolerance...(ducks to avoid having poutine tossed at her head...)
Vancouver science fiction television. Sorry, but it mostly sucks.
:D
Other than that, it is an odd quirk of fate that where what lies where is on one side of the border or the other, and I guess in many ways I am often times closer to the Canadians than I am to many parts of the US. That includes not only in physical terms, but those of social, political, and cultural terms. The US is so diverse, but those of us who live in areas bordering Canada are so much more like you are than we would be to places like Texas or Florida.
Okay, well I will round off my list with those stupid goofy hats that you wear. Yeah, I understand all too well about keeping the head warm and all, but 99.9% of those things are ridiculous looking, and we wear them down here as well. Why cannot someone come up with a warm hat that covers the ears and still LOOKS good?
:D
