What us canadians have to be proud of!
Pulled this off another board..
SO, WHAT DO CANADIANS HAVE TO BE PROUD OF?
1. Smarties , SNICKERS
2. Crispy Crunch, Coffee Crisp
3. The size of our footballs fields and one less down
4. Baseball is Canadian
5. Lacrosse is Canadian
6. Hockey is Canadian
7. Basketball is Canadian
8. Apple pie is Canadian
9. Mr. Dress-up kicks Mr. Rogers ***
10. Tim Hortons kicks Dunkin' Donuts ***
11. In the war of 1812, started by America, Canadians pushed the Americans back...past their 'White House'. Then we burned it...and most of Washington, under the command of William Lyon MaKenzie King who was insane and hammered all the time. We got bored because they ran away, so we came home and partied...Go figure..
12. Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered to Germany.
13. We have the largest English population that never ever surrendered or withdrew during any war to anyone. anywhere. EVER.
14. Our civil war was fought in a bar and it lasted a little over an hour.
15. The only person who was arrested in our civil war was an American mercenary, who slept in and missed the whole thing... but showed up just in time to get caught.
16. We knew plaid was cool far before Seattle caught on.
17. The Hudsons Bay Company once owned over 10% of the earth's surface and is still around as the worlds oldest company.
18. The average dog sled team can kill and devour a full grown human in under 3 minutes.
19. We still know what to do with all the parts of a buffalo.
20. We don't marry our kin-folk.
21. We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, velcro, zippers, insulin, penicillin, zambonis, the telephone and short wave radios that save countless lives each year.
22. We ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell about it.
23. A Canadian invented Superman.
24. We have coloured money.
25. Our beer advertisments kick ***
BUT MOST IMPORTANT! ......
24. The handles on our beer cases are big enough to fit your hands with mitts on. OOOoohhhhh Canada!!

Canada Rock... but to correct .. in the war of 1812 in the year 1814 we burned the whitehouse... not to the ground they managed to put out the fire and painted it white to cover over the soot... hence the name of the building.. also we didn't push the americans back to Washington... hell we took the easy way and pushed them back inside their borders then took a boat down to washington and landed... also we did this 2 weeks after the war ended.... we rock!
