Another one - and it may just be region specific - but the focus on religion. There are more churches here than there were Tim Horton's back home (ok, that was a joke!), but there are literally church

The whole attitude to health - not just the health care issue. I am used to seeking medical attention when I need it; here, most people resist going to the doctor until it is absolutely the last optio

No disrepect intended, but whoever told you that has no idea what they are talking about. The 2nd ammendment was written at the time because the U.S. did not have a standing, professional army. The B

Remember skipits? I had one and those got banned too. :(

Yes! That was so much fun! I don't remember what happened to those... or why they decided we couldn't have them anymore. Maybe they had some kids trip and eat the pavement :lol:

I remember some people would take those things sooo seriously. Same with hackie sack.. which I never could get by the by. :P

I couldn't get either! With the Devil Sticks I would always lose mine within 2 seconds of playing. I'd knock around the big stick twice and then it would fall to the ground.

I remember the Devil Sticks being really big for a couple years in the early 90's.

Omg I was so going to bring up devil sticks. Apparently they were only cool in Canada because NO ONE here knows what I'm talking about. Hahaha. We had them in 5th grade and they were ALL THE RAGE.

I also had a skip-it and more pogs than I care to admit to. I swear my parents must have spent at least $1000 on pogs at one point. I collected Pocohantas and Lion King ones. My brother collected the Hockey ones.

I miss my childhood. It was awesome.

no. lol

I don't want to start a pro/con fight or any sort of political arguement. I'm just curious about the cultural differences and how they shape our view as opposed to others.

Do any of you find yourself feeling like you're at the extreme oposite in your views?

CdnMn

So tell me, CdnMN. Is this thread going as well as you'd expected it to? :lol:

Omg! You'd get it with the family feast and you'd blow it up and fill one end with water and when you threw it, it would go all over the place.

Sooo much fun yet sooo pointless.
