Oh suuuure, keep laughing, our Southern brothers. At least our banking system is better than yours. In fact, its been the safest banking system in the world for the past few years. We all enjoy free healthcare, an economy that protected the citizens from mass job losses and foreclosures, and a society that sees criminal activity rates (namely homicides) dropping from year to year. To top things off, we also won the latest Olympics. And not just in hockey. So, that little image of yours, while original and funny, doesn't bother us. As long as it makes you feel better - we are happy for you.

haha, I personally think this thread should be closed before the rioting begins! We don't want what happened in Vancouver to happen on HD... just my thoughts and that's hilarious!

If you ever pass by Montreal, be sure to let me know. I'll be happy to be your source of entertainment in the city.

The closest I've been to Canada was the New York side of Niagra Falls. What a sight! One of these days I'm planning on visiting Ontario and Quebec. Just gotta go get my passport renewed.
Funny pic, BTW!

I don't mean to be a meanie, but the Canadian side of Niagra is much better. Not that you see anything different, but you get a lot closer to the action.

Niagra would be very low on my list of things to do in Canada.
Other than the endless wineries of course. The town is pure tourist trap though.
I would advise people to take Art up on his offer. He is a very good host.

Does anyone watch 'How I Met Your Mother'? Barney found out he was part Canadian in last night's episode and reacted in a hilarious fashion:
http://www.cbs.com/shows/how_i_met_y...canadian-roots
(Great Facebook rip in there as well)
http://www.cbs.com/shows/how_i_met_y...-s-a-vs-canada
(The end of the episode as Barney's Halloween costumes battle it out)
