The Canadian Identity

You know you are a Canadian if.....

1. You're not offended by the term "HOMO MILK".
2. You understand the phrase, "Could you pass me a serviette, I just dropped my poutine on the chesterfield."
3. You eat chocolate bars, not candy bars.
4. You drink pop, not soda.
5. You know what 'Mickey' and '2-4' mean.
6. You don't care about the fuss with Cuba. It's a cheap place to go for you holidays, with good cigars and no Americans.
7. You know that a pike is a type of fish, not part of a highway.
8. You drive on a highway, not a freeway.
9. You have Canadian Tire money in your kitchen drawer.
10. You know that Casey and Finnegan were not part of a Celtic music group.
11. You get excited whenever an American television show mentions Canada.
12. You brag to Americans that Shania Twain, Jim Carrey, Mike Myers and many more, are Canadians.
13. You know that the C.E.O. of American Airlines is a Canadian!
14. You know what a touque is.
15. You design your Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
16. You know that the last letter of the English alphabet is 'Zed' not 'Zee'.
17. Your local newspaper covers the national news on 2 pages, but hockey requires 6 pages of coverage!(even if its lockout news)
18. You know that the four seasons mean: almost winter, winter, still winter and road work.
19. You know that when it's 25 degrees outside, its a warm day.
20. You understand the Labatt Blue commercials.
21. You know how to pronounce and spell Saskatchewan.(Sas-KAT-chew-wan)
22. You perk up when you here the theme song from "Hockey Night in Canada".
23. You were in Grade 12, not 12th Grade.
24. "Eh?" is a very important part of your vocabulary, and is more polite than, "Huh?".
25. You actually understood all this, send it to all your Canadian friends, then send it to your American friends just to confuse them even more!

God Created Canada!

On the sixth day God turned to Archangel Gabriel and said: "Today I am going to create a land called Canada, it will be a land of outstanding natural beauty. It shall have tall majestic mountains full of mountain goats and eagles, beautiful sparkling lakes bountiful with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, high cliffs over-looking sandy beaches with an abundance of sea life, and rivers stocked with salmon."

God continued, "I shall make the land rich in oil so as to make the inhabitants prosper, I shall call these inhabitants Canadians, and they shall be known as the most friendly people on the earth."

"But Lord," asked Gabriel, "don't you think you are being too generous to these Canadians?"

"Not really," replied God, "just wait and see the neighbours I am going to give them."

Health Care

A Dutchman, an American and a Canadian were riding in a car together and were involved in a very bad accident. The ambulance took them all to hospital together but they were just barely alive....as a matter of fact all three expired in the same operating room while doctors were working on them.

Suddenly the three of them appeared in the clouds at St. Peters Gate and as they approached, St. Peter gestured to the American and said, "If you give me fifty dollars I'll send you back....you are too young to be up here so soon."

The American whipped out fifty bucks and....poof! He jumped off the operating table in perfect conition! Not a scratch on him. The doctors were amazed and asked him how come?

He said that all he knew is that the three of them were "up there" with St. Peter and when St. Peter asked him for fifty bucks to send him back....he paid it and....poof! Here he was!

The doctors couldn't help but be amazed and asked him, "You say those other two were up there with you?" (They were on the next two operating tables in the room) The American said "Yes they were."

The doctors then asked him, "Well what about them? Are they coming back too? What were they doing when you left?"

The American said, "Well, all I can say is when I looked back at them just before I left the Dutchman was arguing about the price and the Canadian was waiting for the government to pay for his!"
