Canadaaaaaaaa,..=d

[Jasmine45]

My mom is acualy from Gatineau,Quebec.

Yeh I never get offended by Canadian stereotypes or jokes...or the Family Guy episodes, I just think they are funny.

Some of them are kinda true!!!

I mean...my HS had a curling team!!

Basically every man on my street sits in their garage drinking beer & watching hockey!!

I put REAL maple syrup on; pancakes, waffles, ice cream, SNOW!! (sugar on snow if the greatest thing alive...and probably makes me sound like THE most canadian person ever..but seriously, have you guys ever had it--it's more of a Quebec thing I think though), certain types of cakes & pastries my mom makes.
I eat maple cookies, I live for those little maple candies that are in the shape of a maple leaf!!!!

But I think having different coloured money is a good idea. Any time I'm shopping the the States it always takes me sooo long to get my money out Because it take me forever to realize which bill is which!! lol

and i say bathroom....


my friend told me in the states you guys say 'restroom'??
true or false.

also..he said that when he was in Miami he asked for cutlery and they didn't know what that was?
...was it just that person, or do you guys not know what cutlery is?

Oh! And I use serviettes & sit on a chesterfield


(I live in the GTA as well....brampton to be exact...where do you guys live??)

I can only have the real maple syrup, the fake kind makes me sick.
But I LOVE maple syrup on snow!
I had it all the time when I went to Ottawa for Winterlude, and sometimes I did it myself at home =D

:O You used to live in Canada?

 

[acesupercoolme]

:O You used to live in Canada?

Yup, since I was 3 to when I was 17.

true or false.

Everyone I know, including myself, says bathroom. If I'm out though, and I don't know where the bathroom is I'll ask "Where are the restrooms?" I don't know..I guess it sounds spiffier to me; but I prefer to say bathroom.

 

[Babyjustrun]

My mom is acualy from Gatineau,Quebec.

We have friends in Gatineau.
I don't know the place well.
I do know that I don't like their Walmart (it's crazy busy), and that the employees of said Walmart do not know what 'du vin' is! Seriously. They're french and they don't know what wine is?


Anyhoo:

Don't wanna be a Canadian idiot
Don't wanna be some beer swillin' hockey nut Beer swillin'? I think most adults in general drink beer...
And do I look like some frostbitten hose-head? I've never had frost bite.
I never learned my alphabet from A to Zed Guess what? I never say zed. Even if it's RIGHT.

They all live on donuts and moose meat Yes, I do enjoy my Timmie Hoes. But um moose meat? My uncle puts it in mince meat pies...
And they leave the house without packin' heat
Never even bring their guns to the mall Because that would be stupid...
And you know what else is too funny?
Their stupid Monopoly money Our money is prettier than yours xP And I love my Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
Can't take 'em seriously at all

Well maple syrup and snow's what they export Maple syrup owns. And I'm sure snow exists in other countries too.
They treat curling just like it's a real sport It is a real sport. Just a reallly boring one.
They think their silly accent is so cute What accent?
Can't understand a thing they're talkin' aboot People don't actually say that.

Sure they got their national health care I do enjoy that.
Cheaper meds, low crime rates and clean air That as well.
Then again well they got Celine Dion Not so much.
Eat their weight in Kraft macaroni While KD is good, I don't eat my weight in it. Not so good.
And dream of drivin' a Zamboni When I was 9.
All over Saskatchewan Why Saskatchewan? Lol, seriously?

Don't wanna be a Canadian idiot
Won't figure out their temperature in Celsius Well, the rest of the world uses it too, it's the Americans that are behind.
See the map, they're hoverin' right over us We're not exactly hovering, we're ATTACHED.
Tell you the truth, it makes me kinda nervous

Always hear the same kind of story
Break their nose and they'll just say "sorry" Um, no, you break my nose I scream at you and break yours xP
Tell me what kind of freaks are that polite? Being polite isn't bad.
It's gotta mean they're all up to somethin'
So quick, before they see it comin'
Time for a pre-emptive strike!

 

[BandGeek911]

Dude, I can't stand Aunt Jemima's syrup. I won't put that on anything unless I'm desperate.

I went to Canada last year. It was beautiful :]

 

[marypops!]

I have to say i'm too polite If someone accidently hits me, i'd say sorry like it's my fault I was in their way...

2) I say napkins and couch D:
3) HAMILTON WOOT.

xD

Yay Canada! Yes, I do say 'eh' on occasion (it's an incredibly useful expression. Like a swiss army knife. But a word. And Canadian.) I have seen wild moose and beaver. I have eaten moose meat, and caribou (caribou burgers are goooood.) But one thing I could never figure out is why people think we pronounce about 'aboot'. Has anyone ever really heard this? Is there a recording or any other evidence. Ok, I'll say it... a-bowt. Possibly even a-boat. Never a-boot. Besides, Americans pronounce roof 'ruf'. Thats funny too..... Man, I wish I had an accent.

One thing I've noticed in the Canadian language is that we freely intermingle American, English and Canadian phrases. For example, I call a bathroom a bathroom, toilet, restroom, washroom or a loo. A bathroom is generally a room with a toilet and a bath or shower in it, a toilet doesn't have a shower or bath, a restroom is a public washroom (sometimes with those fancy lounge areas), washroom is like restroom (though more general) and I say loo when it fits the lingo. And to confuse people.
Like how soda means stuff in bottles or on fountain, and pop generally refers to cans.

Or is that just me?

Anyway... Canada yeah!!! Edmonton is the greatest! WOOT!!!!

Have you ever been to the Edmonton mall?

 

[Nomi]

Have you ever been to the Edmonton mall?

Of course, I live very close to it. I practically live there (well, as much as one can without being a mall rat). It's where I see movies, hang out with my friends, have parties, where I took correspondence and guitar lessens, and I'm going to get a job there in the summer (probably at pj's in the fish department or the new two story art supply store).

Heh, yes, I would say I've been to WEM. (I call it the mall, because after that mall, there are no other malls. And all the other malls in Edmonton sort of suck.)

Have you even been to WEM?

I have not, i'm in Hamilton haha.

Only North Americas largest indoor waterpark! (It used to be the biggest in the world until very recently, I believe.) And it's not that expensive.

There really is a lot to do at WEM. We've got the worlds largest indoor amusement park (Galaxyland), the World Waterpark, and indoor lagoon with a scale model of the Santa Maria, a sea lion show, undersea caverns, aquariums, and little bumper boat things, and indoor skating rink, skate park, several movie theaters (one featuring a life-size animatronic fire-breathing dragon, mini golf, glow in the dark golf, ect.
