Canada vs. America

Hersheys always tasted bad to me.
All you taste is sugar, not chocolate.

Cadbury's reall is gross. I've had a few eggs and they're nothing special.

I <3 German chocolate or Spanish chocolate.

 

[marypops!]

Depends on where you get the Cadburys is produced. In the USA, Cadburys is produced by Hersheys. According to this article, both are processed in different ways.

They don't make them anymore. I have some too though...people gave them to us as gifts.

Maybe you can buy them from the mint, but I've only seen coins for sale there.

Has the $2 bill been replaced with a coin?

Oh I didn't know that, thanks for the information. I will certainly Google it.



I agree with your first point, but your second point couldn't be farther from the truth.

Conservatives- believe in cutting taxes and cutting social programs
Liberals - These guys believe in cutting taxes, and/or raising taxes depending on the circumstances or who is leader.
New Democrats - Believe in higher taxes, and social programs
Bloc Quebecois - A separatist party from Quebec
Green Party - Saving the environment, clean air, etc.

Republicans - same as conservatives (see above)
Democrats - Same as liberals (see above)

I don't know about you, but I don't think all these platforms are the same. If all these political parties are the same why would they be running against each other? Wouldn't they all have the same values? what is the point in voting? What would be the point of the different parties?



Yes, I think you are right. What I meant was in Ontario you can't sell liquor in convenience stores or grocery stores.

You obviously didn't get my post...
I mean the American Republicans and Democrats are equal to the Conservative and Liberal parties..
I'm not stupid, I'm kind of aware that Stephen Harper has different beliefs and platform than Michael Ignatieff. And obvs with Bloc Quebecois, their beliefs are in the name.. technically they're not separtists anymore, as it's.. you know.. impossible. They just run to make sure Quebec's voice is heard.

German choc is the best! I have a friend from Germany, his name is Malte (come on, you read it and you think Malted Milk Balls, which are gross, but still, Chocolate) and he brought me some marzipan and other random chocolates..
<3!

I love Cadbury. Their CREME EGGS ARE LOVE.
So are their mini eggs. I don't like eggies that much.

 

[imabrat]

KINDER EGGS FTW!

Chyeah.
If you haven't had a Kinder Egg, you haven't lived.

 

[Babyjustrun]

Mmm.
Kinder makes the best chocolate. Bueno's are SO good. It's like.. their chocolate... and hazelnut cream...
It's a foodgasm.

 

[blindsided]

My dad brought home Cadbury's chocolate once, and I loved it. I also love Hershey's though. They're just completely different tasting chocolates.

I do see how people say Hershey's tastes like vomit though ...sweet, delicious vomit.

Hey i'm from Northern Ireland and ive noticed quite a few differences between us and Americans.

Bathroom or restroom is known as the toilet
Gas is known as petrol/diesel
Your vacation is known as holiday
Not sure when you get off for your summer holidays but we get off late june
our year gruops are different too...
you start school
primary 1 aged 4/5
primary2-5/6 and so on untill high school at age 11/12 when it becomes...
year 8
year 9
etc.
Also when you are having a good time and joking about you say "you are having good craic"(pronounced crack)
Also i live in a smallish country village so my accent is quite "countryfied"
Like i pronounce window as "windy"

If i think of anyomre i'll post.

not really all that related but:
i like irish accents
i have a cousin from ireland, names paudy (sp?), and one time he came over when i was little and i thought he voice was like the greatest thing ever xD

Next time you should explain yourself better...

You bolded all the political parties (including NDP, Bloc & Green party), and made this comment....

"And on the second bolded thing... They're basically the same parties, just different names, and their agendas obviously change from leader to leader..."

How am I supposed to know you only meant liberal and conservatives and that they're the same as democrats and republicans?

 

[chisnpeke]

Has the $2 bill been replaced with a coin?

No. I think they just did away with the $2 idea.

They've tried to introduce $1 coins but people don't seem to like the idea. It has never caught on too well. In 1999 or 2000 they started the Sacagawea dollar coin and now they have dollar coins of the presidents. They might look too similar to our .25 quarter dollars or people might just like to collect them because you never see them in circulation too often. I know I don't spend mine if I find them.

Sacagawea

Presidents

I bolded both the Canadian and American parties.
I figured people would get the jist of it, seen as on a political spectrum Republicans are Conservative...

But I guess not.

Do you have Auntie Anne's Pretzels? If not, I pity you.

I say pissed to mean angry sometimes. Maybe I'm just too americanised xD


Question time:- If I say cwtch (pronounce cutch or cooch whichever you prefer) would any of you know what I mean?

xD I hope it doesn't mean what it means in America!


Oh, and Fanny! In the US it means butt, in the UK it means something else
