Joe Canadian

Seeing the direction the TH thread went it reminded me of this...

JOE CANADIAN

Hey, I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader....

I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled....

and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,

although I'm certain they're really really nice.

I have a Prime Minister, not a president.

I speak English and French, not American.

And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'.

I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.

I believe in peace keeping, not policing,

diversity, not assimilation,

and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.

A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch,

and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed' !!!!

Canada is the second largest landmass!

The first nation of hockey!

and the best part of North America

My name is Joe!!

And I am Canadian!!!

It's funny you have this on your pc. When I was looking I found the "I am Canadian" song on my pc.

Love it. The television commercial was good too.

I love this, I'm keeping this for-ever!!!!

Oddly enough I have been asked to say "about" and then get looked at funny when I say "about" not "aboot". lol.

Yankees! Gotta love em

That is really funny.

My fiance makes fun because we say grill down here instead of a barbeque that you cook on outside. Also at least me and my family say roof. It rhymes with woof like a dog. He says it differently. hehe!

I relate with the roof thing. My five year old now says it like my USC husband. I keep asking if there's a dog in the house he say ruff instead of roof
