Inspired by a recent email from our good Canadian friend, Marty, I have chosen to spend quality time on making a pros and cons list about our dear friends up north. I guess I could make a pros and cons list based solely off Marty, but instead I have gone for a more general approach, and maybe next week we can focus on Marty and his decision to only eat Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwiches for the next month or so.
Let’s Begin:
|
Pros: |
Cons: |
|
They say “eh” a lot & frankly that makes me giggle. |
They can’t decide if they want to speak French or English |
|
I LOVE Maple syrup. I put maple syrup on everything. I know everything there is to know about maple syrup, I could own a maple syrup conglomerate. (Thank you Vince Vaughn) |
They have to live in cold place, which leads to less outdoor activities, which leads to boredom, which leads to CURLING….need I say more. |
| The uniforms their MOUNTIES wear.
(wink, wink) |
According to the Humane Society: They’re killing all the seals in the world. WAY TO GO Canada! http://humanesociety.org/seriouslycanada/ |
|
The fact that they call their police MOUNTIES. (Hehehehe) |
The song “O Canada” |
|
Niagara Falls – OK to see from afar |
Niagara Falls great to see up close – BUT, You have to get WET when you see it…and NOT in a good way! (Thank you Bri) |
|
They kick ass in hockey. |
Their hockey players are UNATTRACTIVE…woman like teeth, even fake ones, so BUY them! |
|
Marty wouldn’t be Marty without Canada, and we all like Marty. |
MOOSE — Singular or Plural??…you don’t know. |
There you have it, it seems to be a tie for now. Tune in later this week for Fohawk Vs. Mohawk, which is better and why. And don’t miss next week’s “Is that a beard or are you a Santa-in-training?”
