It's nice to have our unique Canadian culture acknowledged here at The Ville. I laughed at the one near the end of the list which said 'You got mad when they took the Beachcombers off the air'. That show was so bad it was good.

I live in Florida.. I think half that Canadian "culture" you spoke of just arrived here!!!

The average age of Clearwater's population just increased 20 years and the average speed on the freeway decreased to 35mph in the fast lane - please take them back!!!!

Some comedian (forgot his name) once said:

I was born in Canada and I live America. So I'm not sure if I should call myself a Canadian or an American. So when I feel like being an asshole I tell people that I am american, when I feel like being kind and friendly I tell people that i'm canadian.

Heheh...no offense to the americans out there.


Added: I just realized that i'm gonna piss off alot of people for this
