I AM CANADIAN

(clears throat)
Hey.

I´m not a lumberjack, or a fur trader...
and I don´t live in an igloo, or eat blubber, or own a dogsled...
and I don´t know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I´m certain they´re really, really nice.

I have a Prime Minister, not a President.
I speak English and French, NOT American.
and I pronounce it ´ABOUT´, NOT ´A BOOT´.

I can proudly sew my country´s flag on my backpack.
I believe in peace keeping, NOT policing.
DIVERSITY, NOT assimilation,
AND THAT THE BEAVER IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE ANIMAL.
A TOQUE IS A HAT, A CHESTERFIELD IS A COUCH, AND IT IS PRONOUNCED ´ZED´ NOT ´ZEE´, ´ZED´!!!

CANADA IS THE SECOND LARGEST LAND MASS!
THE FIRST NATION OF HOCKEY!
AND THE BEST PART OF NORTH AMERICA!

MY NAME IS JOE!!
AND I AM CANADIAN!!!!!!!!

What is Canadian Experience??

Do you canadian experience??? If you wanna work in canada this will be the first question at the interview. There is nothin like American experience.

What kinda english ???

In canada english is spoken in different dialects.

Chinese speak Chinglish
Punjabis speak Punglish
Hindus speak Hinglish
Gujarathis speak Gujinglish
Phillipinos speak Phinglish
Madrasis speak Minglish
Muslims speak Tittar Bittar Urdinglish

If you are ready to work and understand their kinda english at work place without succumbing to regionalised politics then after an year you will be having true "canadian experience"

strippers (in reply to: CANADA)


Again the premise being that Canada is the best at everything and thensome. So that being said here´s the list we made after visiting some of Montreal´s strip clubs. Again this was a joint effort.

Extremely Fake Tits
Language barrier
Gotta buy them drinks
Their dirty gypsy ways
Bulgarian strippers
Lap dances nowhere near your lap
Hidden charges
Minimum drink purchases to close out a tab
Doormen who hound you for tips
They´re all sexy, swindling beauties.
