Canada Day

Posted June 30th, 2008 by Buzz

Canada Day is here! Be patriotic and flap your flag! Be proud of "Our home and native land".

There are so many reasons to love Canada:

Smarties.
The CFL footballs and fields are bigger, and we have one less Down.
Hockey is Canadian.
Basketball is Canadian.

Avril, Alanis, Nickelback, The Guess Who, Neil Young, Tragically Hip, Shania Twain, Barenaked Ladies, Joni Mitchell, Celine Dion...OK, maybe not Celine Dion.
Mr. Dress-up can kick Mr. Rogers ass.
Maple syrup kicks Mrs. Butterworths ass (...don’t know about Aunt Jemima though).
Tim Horton’s!
We knew plaid was cool far before Seattle caught on.
We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, velcro, zippers, the long distance and short wave radios that save countless lives each year. Oh yeah...and the handles on beer cases big enough to fit your hands with mitts on.
We’ve ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell about it.
