Canadian topics

[Spoon-O-Death]

Well, After a really good MSN conversation with TiddlyWinks, I have decided to make a thread on Canadians. I heard BraveLiver had one while I was camping(I also heard it failed) well im going to try it again. So who do you think is going to be the best Canadian? Me and Tiddly both agree that Trudeau will most likely win it. Even though I hope he doesnt. Me being Albertan and him being from the east we obviously have different opinions on this(damn him and his NEP to hell!)so anything Canadian post here plz k thx. (note this isn't just for Canadians I just want to know any opinions of people from Canada or any other country)

[SuRReAL OrC]

You don't even want to THINK what happened to the last thread like this.......search for 'The Tim Hortons Thread'.............

[Spoon-O-Death]

couldn't find the thread. but I have scrapped together a few things from other threads. So something went wrong and Liver got pissed then "left"?

[Kingcrazygenius]

Well it all started when Slay and I realized Canada sucked...

[Spoon-O-Death]

well, what does Canada "suck" at?

[Kingcrazygenius]

Everything but making syrup and playing hockey obviously.

[SuRReAL OrC]

Oh god, here we go again! :g-shake:

[Spoon-O-Death]

I dont know if you did any research ( im assuming you didnt). but Canada has a higher chance of not being killed in a gun murder, we had the second best pilot in ww1(first being the red baron) many american celebrities were born in Canada (Alex Trebek being one) being filled with gold(Yukon) I could go on forever like this... as you may or may not see Canada has more than syrup and hockey. I cant change either of your opinions but I can tell you that we dont "suck".

[Spoon-O-Death]

and are we talking about the same Slay that plays profesional Frisbee?

[SuRReAL OrC]

Slay looks hilarious...........

[Spoon-O-Death]

I never finished reading the thread was he the larger one?

[SuRReAL OrC]

I think......

[Kingcrazygenius]

He was the fat one with lots of curly hair.

[SuRReAL OrC]

Yeah, he looks real funny, it made me laugh. No offence to Slay.

[Kage no Musuko]

Also, you could possibly dodge a draft by going to Canada.

Of course It'd be illegal and very tricky for most...

But I have DUAL CITIZENSHIP.....Bitch!

And the funny thing is that I've never been to Canada in my entire life.

[A-Thousand-Lies]

Canadian's also suck at detecting sarcasm, but it seems like they are skilled at being insecure enough to take every single insult seriously.

[A-Thousand-Lies]

I am so reluctant to say this again, but...

Ralfwarg, you rule.

[BraveLiver]

Why is US anti-Canda, whilst the entire rest of the world is anti-US? Oh yeah, we don't declare war on little countries with barely a military for no particular reason, violating the laws of the U.N. There's a reasonyou're in Iraq alone, and that's because all you guys want is the bloody oil. The Iraq people should just torch it all.

You Americans seem to like basketball, eh? We invented it.



Prediction: This thread will go down fighting, but will ultimately go down.

[A-Thousand-Lies]

Actually, only two Americans have posted in this thread, and only one of them said that he thought Canada sucks (which is his entitled opinion).

[Desert_Eagle25]

Everyone sucks. Thats the answer to everything.

Good day.

[Spoon-O-Death]

In the case of the WW1 Fighter Pilots the Red Baron didn't survive the war(science says an aussi shot him down) so Billy Bishop was the best survivor. and you Americans do realize your entire country is being represented by a C-average student who partied his way through college right?

[A-Thousand-Lies]

What is to say that everyone approves of the leader? Just because Bush took Crack, he got crap grades and has been in jail several times, that does not mean that the whole of America is reflected by that.

[Spoon-O-Death]

well....I disagree with that. if you were to say go to a country like say Afghanistan go in the streets wearing an American flag over your shoulder, chances are you will be shot.

[A-Thousand-Lies]

So wait...are you saying that people who where an American flag should be shot? Are you saying that the anarchy in Afghanistan is good?

[Spoon-O-Death]

im not saying either of those things are good. Im saying that chances are it will happen.

[Kingcrazygenius]

Why is US anti-Canda, whilst the entire rest of the world is anti-US? Oh yeah, we don't declare war on little countries with barely a military for no particular reason, violating the laws of the U.N. There's a reasonyou're in Iraq alone, and that's because all you guys want is the bloody oil. The Iraq people should just torch it all.

We're anti-Canada because you all have beady eyes and flapping heads. Plus you suck at everything.

You Americans seem to like basketball, eh? We invented it.

I hate basketball, stupidest sport ever.

Prediction: This thread will go down fighting, but will ultimately go down.

How many Canadians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Six. One to find the polar bear, one to lure him inside with maple syrup, one to distract him while someone stands on him, one to stand on the polar bear, one to call an ambulance right afterwards, and one to beg an American to do it for them.

[mulratt]

Canada has liberal laws but it serves no good if our conservative society doesnt apply them.
For instance, women are allowed to go topless in Toronto. So how come I dont nice melons when I go there? Hmmm fruit market.

[Kingcrazygenius]

The day women go topless without a second thought is the day no one cares about breasts anymore.

[mulratt]

Thats like saying that all women should wear burkas else if we see their faces then we stop appreciating them.
Breasts are nice because of the mystery and naughty effect (oh I want to find out cuz it's hidden). Rather, they have a pleasing shape

[Kingcrazygenius]

Well, then just find some women who want to be stared at by guys like you all day.

[Dragolas77]

Please, i've barely read the first page, but i saw the title and i know this thread is doomed. I will refuse to post in this anymore.

BTW, no offence, but if you've ever seen the tim hortons thread, you are a complete moron for making this...

You likely haven't, so you are excused...

[Canadian Tire Money]

no, pretty much any canadian who has responded to this thread is an idiot for getting all hot and bothered anytime someone makes fun of canada.

i think don cherry will win. that or the whats his face saskatchwan premier guy. can't place his name.

what is going on in parliment? cons and the BQ ? my two favourite parties :)

fight for your provinces right to party.

[TechnoHamster]

Pssht no one cares about Canada.

Also, Paul Martin is screwed.

[Spoon-O-Death]

Well, In a way this thread sort of succedded. We are talking about Canada are we not? even though most of it is in a negative way. and I thought id point out how Amrica is sort of an Oxymoron. They represent the pinnicle of independance yet thay are a melting pot?(maybe hipoctrical would work in place of oxymoron)

[Kingcrazygenius]

We maybe an oxymoron, but Canada is just a moron

[Slay]

You Americans seem to like basketball, eh? We invented it.

You're wrong. maybe if you were a little more smart and a little less Canadian you would have known that basketball was actually invented in the United States.
http://www.ku.edu/heritage/graphics/people/naismith.html

After serving as McGill's Athletic Director, James Naismith moved on to the YMCA Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA in 1891, where the sport of basketball was born. In Springfield, Naismith was faced with the problem of finding a sport that was suitable for play inside during the Massachusetts winter for the students at the School for Christian Workers.

If Canada wasn't one huge iceblock, I would say that I just burned you.
-Slay

[TMRiddle]

Just because Bush took Crack, he got crap grades and has been in jail several times, that does not mean that the whole of America is reflected by that.

Yeah, of course not :g laugh:

[Canadian Tire Money]

the fundimental difference between a canadian and an american is as follows:

an american complains about everything all the time.

a canadian complains about americans all the time.

[Spoon-O-Death]

well, I think the thread is soon to be doomed. and well, In my eyes this thread succeded.

[Kingcrazygenius]

Naturally you would think so, what with being a Canadian and all.

[A-Thousand-Lies]

I re-iterate my previous statement of most Canucks (save for Tiddly, CTM & Techno) are talented at being insecure enough to take every single insult seriously.

Laugh at yourself for once, everyone else is.

[Lejond]

Canada is a mudhole. Get used to it, get over it.

Get out of it before it goes down the crapper.

[Kingcrazygenius]

It's feeding dung beetles along with Australia

[Dragolas77]

I re-iterate my previous statement of most Canucks (save for Tiddly, CTM & Techno) are talented at being insecure enough to take every single insult seriously.

That really hurt my feelings! :P

[Spoon-O-Death]

it just gets annoying after awhile. over half the ppl I meet in BNet are anti-Canadian and a bunch of ppl "joking" about Canada sucking doesnt help.

[mulratt]

It's feeding dung beetles along with Australia

Hmmm that gives me an idea. So many farmers have problems with crap. There's so much of it that the fertilizer market is saturated. So why not bring those beetles here??
Sounds like a business plan to me


Other stats: In terms of affecting world economy, Canada is about as strrong as Finland. Yes Nokia is huge. :y-pet:

Can we make a thread without someone saying that it sucks? Seems there was a thread complaining about that. I figured for the first page at least, someone would actually talk about stuff happening in canada.
Well, i contributed to the ranting so.... :g puzzled

[Kingcrazygenius]

By all means, talk about the stuff that is happening in canada. Assuming there is anything

[Spoon-O-Death]

Well, CBC's greatest Canadian Contest has been Narrowed down to the top 10. A few of the finalists are:
Don Cherry
Wayne Gretsky
John A MacDonald
Trudea
(guy who invetned medi-care)

and a few others.

[Dragolas77]

Speaking of which, shania twain got on...

Terrible

Even worse, Avril Lavigne...

God i hate her...

Were they eliminated? PLEASSSSEEEEE SAY YES!

[Kingcrazygenius]

They may not be the best singers, but they're nice on the eyes:)

[Spoon-O-Death]

Found a list at cbc.ca:'

Frederick Banting
Alexander Graham Bell-Invented the Telephone
Don Cherry- Sports commentator(very harsh)
Tommy Douglas
Terry Fox-Walked across Canada(almost made it) with one leg
Wayne Gretzky-Famous hockey player(if you dont know who he is leave now)
Sir John A. Macdonald-Canada's first prime minister
Lester B. Pearson-once leader of the Un, Started thepeace keeps
David Suzuki-Famous environmentalist and scientist
Pierre Elliott Trudeau- Hippy Prime minister made NEP(national energy plan) really pissed Albertans off.

it appears those two didnt make it.

[Spoon-O-Death]

forgot these 2...

Banting-Discovered Insulin
Douglas-Made medicare(was socialist)

[BraveLiver]

Let this thread die. It never works. Something(not saying what anymore) always seems to ruin it.

Learn from my example: don't make Canadian threads.

[Kingcrazygenius]

Some one make a thread caled American topics and begin the bout of bloody vengeance.

[TechnoHamster]

while the 19th century belonged to the US, the 20th would belong to Canada. Rofl, Cndian leaders are such n00bs.

[Lejond]

Other stats: In terms of affecting world economy, Canada is about as strrong as Finland. Yes Nokia is huge. :y-pet:

We could put a huge dent in the drug market ^_^

[Kingcrazygenius]

No, I think those are the top ten narrowed down from every single famous Canadian ever.

I wonder who the best Australian would be...

[Paladin307]

Crocodile Dundee?

[A-Thousand-Lies]

I think you can disregard the first Prime Minister in that.

[A-Thousand-Lies]

Australia also invented the black box, the fridge, and some other ****.

[Slay]

I dunno, depends on what you want.

For modelling you could take the current Miss Universe.

Swimming the current world champion Ian Thorpe.

Tennis, one of our various superstars including Pat Rafter, Phillipouses or Leyton Hewwitt.

Acting you could take Russel Crowe.

Singing, Delta Goodrem.

Actual rock music, Jet.

Animal care, Steve Irwin.

I could go on but I don't want to make you feel bad.

Swimming? Tennis? Animal Care? You aussies are sissy boys. The only one that's a man is Russel Crowe, and even he sucks in comparison to Tom Hanks, who is a real American.
-Slay

[Kage no Musuko]

I though Aussies hated Steve Irwin.

[Slay]

I though Aussies hated Steve Irwin.

Well that's because you're a bigoted pile of ****.

Wow. I didnt think it was possible for a country to have a more pathetic list than Canada.

[Canadian Tire Money]

get ready for the ralf quote of the day:

"So out of the whole of Canada over the past 100 years, you only have 11 people with mentioning... Canada is sadder than I thought"

top 10,ralf, top 10 :)



"Let this thread die. It never works. Something(not saying what anymore) always seems to ruin it.

Learn from my example: don't make Canadian threads."

seriously, why are you such a cry baby? they don't work because you cry and whine the whole time about people making fun of canada, rather then actually discussing canada.

back to ralf:

"For modelling you could take the current Miss Universe."

wow, someone won one beauty pagent. there's a national icon.

"Swimming the current world champion Ian Thorpe."

once, every 4 years, he swims across a pool. people have only known who the hell he is for around 5 years.

"Tennis, one of our various superstars including Pat Rafter, Phillipouses or Leyton Hewwitt."

wow an athlete won a few trophies! (not so much in the case of Phillipouses who just sucks) that person has done a lot to make australia what it is today!

"Acting you could take Russel Crowe."

crocidile dundee has made pretty much as many movies as him, and has done more to shape the australian image then russel crowe

"Singing, Delta Goodrem."

who?

"Actual rock music, Jet."

they've got popular for what? 3 songs?

that puts them around the same level as savage garden. INXS would have been a better (yet stupid) suggestion. the world is still waiting for an appoligy for the existance of savage garden BTW.

"Animal care, Steve Irwin."

what type of country has an "animal care" specialist as one of the 10 greatest people of the country?

back to brave liver:

are you pro alberta and quebec, or are you pro ottawa?

[BraveLiver]

back to brave liver:

are you pro alberta and quebec, or are you pro ottawa?

Alberta: I know little about this province.

Quebec: Fights for their French heritage although they really aren't that French.

Ottawa: Saddest capitol I've ever lived in.


Neither?

[Canadian Tire Money]

i'm talking about power. alberta and quebec want more control over things like health care etc. ottawa has control. who do you think should have the power? if alberta wants to take different approaches to health care then ottawa, should they be able to?

[BraveLiver]

Sure, why not? As long as it makes some sense... as in you don't have to pay with limbs to just walk through the hospital door, it's fine with me.

[Spoon-O-Death]

Ofcourse Alberta should, if we have a private hospital(for rich ppl) and a public(for less rich people) then that means shorter wait in the public one, and more money. and ofcourse itll make King Ralph happy.

[Yokuma]

Im surprised any of you Americans can find they time to even post a message, what with having to be constantly alert in case Bush changes the color on the alert system. Maybe it will be orange when you wake up in the morning, so you should...i dunno...wear a sweater?

[Kage no Musuko]

Only the weak minded Americans pay attention to the color alert system and let it control their lives. Mostly we just ignore it.

[Kingcrazygenius]

I'd say both lists are found wanting.

[Kingcrazygenius]

Well that's not very fair. We're part of the union (not for long though...) so I get to lay claim to all US greatness.

Unfortunately most of the best people seem to be immigrants.

[Canadian Tire Money]

i could write a better top ten list of australians then you. your list sucks.

[Slay]

Can we agree that both countries suck the balls, and that Yemen is the best country of all time?
-Slay

[Kingcrazygenius]

Romania>Yemen

ggnorekthx

[SuRReAL OrC]

Czeckoslovakia>>>Nepal :bigclap:

[A-Thousand-Lies]

I believe Luxembourg is the best country in the world.
