Meanwhile the players need to maneuver sharply on ice while wearing sharpened blades on their feet.

Then switch to a high pitched lyspe (sp?)

American's have basketball (A sport invented by Canadians who couldn't play hockey and then promptly ignored by the rest of us) a game where perfectly coiffed thin tall men jog up and down a court wearing fabulous shorts with the intent of throwing a ball through a hoop while playing man to man coverage. In fact, one of your best pure players is you guessed it Canadian.


And in History, America is famous for invasions of its soil, the biggest one being the beatles, but the one that you'd like to forget, the Canadian Invasion, the first one took place in 1812 when Canadians got drunk after a hockey game and made a road trip to the States and burned down the white house. The second invasion is ongoing duh duh daaa.
I think you should just go make the speech for me! Awesome..

Haaaaaaaaaa how true! When my parents first came to visit my in-laws we were living in Colorado, and they walked in their house and immediately took off their shoes. My in-laws thought it was really odd and commented on it after they went back to Canada. Great point!

That's funny, I have to wait 2 months for my son to see a specialist, and that is with our primary care doc calling in a favor...

PLUS, I get to look forward to a bill. Best of both worlds! Yay America!

Another. Again don't remember who said it. A British guy.

To find the difference: tell a Canadian there is no difference."

After they anounce your name or whatever wait a few seconds to go up to the front.. then say "Oh sorry I am late.. now you know how you looked to the rest of the world during WW2."

Baaaam.

Thats actually pretty brilliant.

I have a book from university called World History from an American perspective.

America has never lost a war, Vietnam doesn't count because it was a tie.

I need to pull that book out and read it again.
