Voltaire on Canada: "A few acres of snow."

Actually, this winter us folks in Upstate New York will match snow accumulations with all challengers...!

OMG!!!! I didn't know that many people are from Sudbury. My ex was born and raise there. I have the 'pleasure' of visiting Sudbury 3 times and the last was Christmas 2005.

Ice skating rink, what's that? Oh wait, they had one of those in the Mall of Murder. Yeah that's right.

I've only seen one other rink. That's the one the Riverkings play on. All but two of the players are Canadian. Why did they come all the way to Memphis to play hockey?

Yep - it's the Dalhousie school uniform. But with Birkenstocks.

And it's not "oot" and "a-boot". It's "oat" and "a-boat".

If you're gonna make fun, get it right!

That is the proper pronunciation! You're just used to hearing the Jamaican inflection down there in Southern Ontario.

Ok so maybe the Mountain Dew comment should be changed to "You know you are in a British Colony when the Mountain Dew has no caffeine", not sure though, to tell you the truth the only reason I put that one down is I remembered they put caffeine in Mountain Dew in the States.

You can actually get Mountain Dew with caffeine now: they sell it as an energy drink rather than as a pop.
