    It's easy to tell when you're in Canader. It's when you have the urge to put vinegar on your fries, eh?

    Edit: Almost forgot. It's also when the road signs say "Squeeze Left" instead of "Merge Left."

    Yes the US doesn't seem to go in for vinegar does it?

    I remember asking for it at my Philly hotel and the best they could produce was wine vinegar.

    Yes, and in the States you'd climb up on the 'Ruf' to see where he was.

    You know you're Canadian when...

    You know that Casey and Finnegan were not part of a Celtic musical group.

    You perk up when you hear the theme song from "Hockey Night in Canada.

    Mountain Dew has no caffeine.

    You're right about the hockey night in Canada song though... someone had that as their ringtone and I totally forgot what I was doing when their phone rang. I was like "Wha? Hockey? Where?"

    In Australia, "Mountain Dew" doesn't have caffeine. Period. My American wife informs me that "Mountain Dew" actually has caffeine in it in the 'States (how strange?!).

    And 'the Land of Oz' is a long way from Canada! ;)

    Sorry but there had to be at least one "eh" reference here.
