Difference between American and Canadian military philosophy. Americans shoot first ask questions later. Canadians Ask first if it's ok to shoot you first before they actually do shoot. A boot in america is something you put on your feet. A boot in canada is sometimes a goal in a hockey game. Americans like cold beer on a hot summer day. Canadians like warm beer in a cold hockey arena. Americans can be broke sometimes but a Canadian is never trully broke as long as there is canadian tire money around. A universal tool to americans is a 3 1n 1 screwdiver a Canadians unervisal tool is DUCTTAPE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also... In Canada Gravy BELONGS on french fries. Not this white chicken gravy shit either Up in the Great White North we have a cocktail called the Caesar. LOOK IT UP! Poor Americans are really missing out on this one! We all sound like Tom Brokaw. The most generic accent EVER. Unlike Americans...Unless you're from Oregon, Washington, or California. We don't use horsepower to define how much power our cars have...up here it's dogpower, harking back to the dogsled days...Its fun to tell you that my Volvo Turbo has 640DP instead of 222HP. A kilometer is a much more logical measurement than a mile...Don't get me started on the whole "Imperial System vs Metric System" thing..... Our beer is better. This is where the Brits and Germans can chime in and make fun of us too...Imagine what they'd say about your swill. Ewwwwwww Is everything owned by Anheiser Busch? It gets hotter here (for the most part) It gets colder here (guaranteed!) Our women are better looking (Come and see for yourselves!) Our flag is easier to draw, and I can name all ten provinces without having a cranial melt down Americans wear Canadian flags on their clothes, backpacks, underwear, etc when they travel...there's a reason for that!! We have Celine Dion...oh, wait....sorry about that.... Without us there would be nothing between you and Russia (except the Bering Sea), and a number of years ago, that would have been a very bad thing. And let's not forget...FREE HEALTH CARE!!!!

And don't say they're not real, I've ridden both. We also have better tall tales. What's with Paul Bunyon and his stupid Babe the Blue Ox? Sheesh.... FORGET what Unionjack said. We DO NOT DRINK WARM BEER. Unless it's a dire emergency and the power has been out for days and there's no cool running stream near by to chill the beer in. Then and ONLY then will we drink warm beer. And we looooove beer. So much so, that one day, I was driving a friend's truck back from Peterborough (the Canadian one) down a desolate highway, and the stupid POS caught on fire. The only liquid around was leftover beer from the weekend at the cottage. I actually considered saving the beer as opposed to the truck!! (True story!!) In the end though, the truck would have gotten me to more beer, where as the beer was warm. So, it became a fire extinguisher! Oh, and let's forget Celine (Please, for the love of all that's Holy!!), and talk about funny people...Jim Carrey for one....Martin Short, John Candy (R.I.P.), Eugene Levy, Russel Peters, Dan Ackroyd, etc etc etc etc.... And then there's our money. $5 is blue, $10 is Purple, $20 is green, $50 is red, and $100 is brown. American money all looks the SAME!! It's a pain in the ass!! How hard can it be to add some color? I just have to glance at our cash to see how many hundreds, fifties, and twenties I have in my pocket ($5 bills...pfft...who mixed that in with the rest of the small change?). Also, we have $1 and $2 coins. Do you know what that does to bolster the piggy bank? Or when you're digging through your wife's purse for change and you come upon $238 in small change!! Goooooood Times!!!! That's a lot of beer!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
