Alittle late but still to the point!!!

HAPPY CANADA DAY EVERYONE

So, what do Canadians have to be proud of?

Smarties, Crispy Crunch, Coffee Crisp & Kit Kat.

The size of our footballs fields and one less Down.

Baseball is Canadian.

Lacrosse is Canadian.

Hockey is Canadian.

Basketball is Canadian.

Apple pie is Canadian.

Mr. Dress-up kicks Mr. Rogers ***.

Tim Hortons kicks Dunkin' Donuts *** (Tim certainly had more penalty minutes)

In the war of 1812, started by America, Canadians pushed the Americans
back...past their 'White House'. Then we burned it... and most of
Washington, under the command of William Lyon McKenzie who was insane
and hammered all the time. We got bored because they ran away, so we came
home and partied ... Go figure...

Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered to Germany.

We have the largest English population that never ever surrendered or
withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere. Our civil war was a bar fight
that lasted a little over an hour. The only person who was arrested in our
civil war was an American mercenary, who slept in and missed the whole
thing...but showed up just in time to get caught.

We knew plaid was cool far before Seattle caught on.

The Hudson's Bay Company once owned over 10% of the earth's surface
and is still around as the world's oldest company.

The average dog sled team can kill and devour a full grown human in
under 3 minutes.

We still know what to do with all the parts of a buffalo.

We don't marry our kin-folk.

We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, velcro, zippers, insulin, penicillin,
zambonis, the telephone and short wave radios that save countless
lives each year.

We ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell
about it.

BUT MOST IMPORTANT!
...the handles on our beer cases are big enough to fit your hands WITH mitts on.

OOOOoohhhhh Canada!!

Oh yeah... and our elections only take one day.
