Canada gave us superman, Donald Sutherland, William Shatner and John Candy. I'm fine with being the country that steals Canada's talent. The occasional Bieber, Celine Dion or Hayden Christensen unleashed on us is tolerable collateral damage.

When the rest of the world realizes that you guys up north unleashed the Beebs on the world, trust me, you'd be safer singing the Star Spangled Banner wearing an Old Glory leisure suit standing in the middle of Fallujah.

And Celine Dion....sometimes Canada slaps you in the face.

Since I'm currently dealing with a love/hate thing with Danny, I'll refrain about commenting either way on his Canadianism.   :angel:

I love being unapologetically Canadian.

Just remeber, beiber sucks. When we gave him to you he was a nice, quiet, god fearing kid. Now... Not so much. No returns on broken merchandise.

But I think what we can all agree on is that there's no place for that backstabbing, dirtbag, nationality renouncing, toolbag that goes by the name of Alex Trebek.  Can't you guys just send him to Guantanamo already?!

He'll apologize eventually, then you'll have to take him back because its your way.

We have to check back in 2019. I believe that the side panels should've been cut by then. Well, at least ONE of the side panels. We must be careful not to raise the expectations too high.  :lol

We could try and kill the Beibs but your health care is so good you could bring him back to life.

Go tell a Canadian they live in America... they'll crack you on the head with a syrup infused hockey stick, tell you they live in Canada (or Quebec if they're on of those, and maybe just maybe mention that it's technically in North America but who the hell goes by that.

Hey buddy, I live in Québec. Which is part of Canada, of course.

On the topic of Americans vs Canadians, .

As for this thread, it's not really a project yet because we haven't seen a photo of seven joysticks, 50 buttons, a spinner, a trackball and a steering wheel.

I take is you aren't one of those crazy militant Québécois separatists?  If you are that's cool man.  If I was from Canukistan I'd be rolling with Kenny Bilko fighting for a free and sovereign Nova Scotia!

Québec is more like our loud, eccentric, inconsiderate, uncle that stamps his feet and turns up his nose stubbornly if you don't already know how he wants his way. He's old, and you kinda hope he just leaves, or gets put in a home.
