Let's settle this dispute once and for all.

[graywarrior]

[Redstone]

Redstone

[graywarrior]

But on the whole, I LURVE Canadians...one in particular.

[ghostsofgiants]

16. My grandfather has a lot of darts trophies.

[graywarrior]

50. I'll just bet. My brother in law is a Novie and had his ass kicked a few times playing darts with

Newfies.

[Hand]

57. Thanks, eh!

I'm a Novie--at least if yer referring to Nova Scotians. Never heard the term before. :hi: from a crazy MoFo!

[Redstone]

2. I kinda like 'em, eh?

Redstone

[Guava Jelly]

With an iron paw

[realisticphish]

12. yeah

[LostInAnomie]

[billyskank]

[u4ic]

:D

[querelle]

10. Hate Em

But then again, I'm not Canadian. Je suis Quebecois........

:hide:

Q

[zanne]

17. Are you a separatist?

I'm of French Canadian heritage and the border isn't that far from where I live, but I've never really understood that whole thing. In grade school, we were taught American history in the morning and French-Canadian history in the afternoon. (I kid you not). But I still don't really get it. What are the origins of the conflict? (If you don't feel like talking about it, I'll just shut up).

[HEyHEY]

41. The origin is this

French Canadians were treated like shit for centuries. And they're good at holding grudges.

[zanne]

51. They were treated that way here for awhile...

I remember a few incidents from childhood that I'd rather forget and my folks didn't have an easy time. But that's a whole other story.

[querelle]

66. No

I'm not a separatist. I want a strong unified Canada, but I also want my culture recognised for what it is. One of the founding cultures of my country. All too often, we are marginalised by the anglo majority and that is simply not fair. I have the right to communicate in my mother tongue without being made to feel that I am a traitor. Sadly........I run into such opposition on a regular basis.

Q

[Bassic]

77. I think you and I live in the same region.

I know what you mean.

[HEyHEY]

40. Yeah, I could tell by your biting of the hand that feeds you.

[Bassic]

76. Héhéhé,

prépares-toi, ça va brasser:D

[qwertyMike]

11. You hate us because we're peacful

Bears are native to the USA

I have had many health problems and it didn't cost me a penny - even for drugs

I'm 61 and i pay $185 for a nice 1-bedroom apt. ($US 150)

I don't know why DU-ers hate Canadians

Per Capita we have lost as many troops in Afghanistan

Move here

[yvr girl]

60. That would get me about a week's rent in Vancouver

And I live in a pretty cheap place. Wow.

[Maraya1969]

13. I'm 1/2 Canadian once removed.

My father was Canadian but moved here and married my mother. I still have a lot of family that I don't know up there. They are mostly in New Brunswick.

[terrya]

14. I love one particular Canadian DU'er.

I like the rest of them.

[IntravenousDemilo]

25. Awwww....

:hug:

shmily

[terrya]

53. Love you always.

:hug:

SHMILY

[ghostsofgiants]

15. Fuck them.

[achtung_circus]

18. Only when I can. nt

[qwertyMike]

26. Why?

Because we have a better country than yours?

[ghostsofgiants]

27. Hahahahaha...

Do yourself a favour, check my profile.

[Hand]

59. Damn Newfies! Why do you hate Canada?

:rofl:

[ghostsofgiants]

61. Joey Smallwood sold us out!

:P

[Hand]

67. So I've heard.

One guy I know of was a master ship's electrician in Quebec and bought Joey's promise of jobs and prosperity in 1949. Moved back and spent the rest of his life as a bartender... :wtf:

[zanne]

74. Newfies...

I like your dogs.

[qwertyMike]

29. Canadians or Americans?

Aren't you bit old for skateboarding?

Just askin'

[ghostsofgiants]

30. I was saying "Fuck them" in reference to Canadians, but I was joking.

You know, since I AM one.

How is 21 too old for skateboarding? Condescend much?

[qwertyMike]

38. Sorry - I'm 61

But I have a skateboarding son (18) who could give you ride for your money

Peace from Halifax NS
He plays a mean guitar too

Sorry about the mistake

[GoddessOfGuinness]

19. Hike 'em!

They are some of DU's most challenging peaks! :evilgrin:

[johnnie]

20. They taste like chicken

[Sanity Claws]

21. I love their cute accents and their funny spellings.

I find them colorful, oops colourful.

[Sanity Claws]

22. I love their cute accents and their funny spellings.

I find them colorful, oops colourful.

[achtung_circus]

23. Colourful,

but not labouriously repetitive.

[crim son]

24. They're a mouldy lot.

I try to steer clear.

[Debi]

28. I like the Canadians that aren't assholes....

:P

[Fran Kubelik]

31. Fuckin Canucks

:grr:











;)

[Blue-Jay]

32. I have always loved the Canucks.

Except for the folks from Calgary, the Newfies, and Mel Lastman's eldest son.

And Bryan Adams.

[terrya]

36. I can't stand Brian Mulroney's son.

Ben Mulroney, host of "Canadian Idol"

Smarmy and talentless pretty much describes him. But when you're the son of a former Prime Minister, you can trade on your name.

[ghostsofgiants]

48. Hey, fuck you too, pally!

:P

[IntravenousDemilo]

54. You have probably the most bizarre, disturbing, and absurdist homepage I've seen.

Congrats. As Terrya would probably tell you, that's exactly what I like.

[Tikki]

33. Luv 'em.....

Tikki

[swag]

34. Canadian DUers, ichiban!

[SPKrazy]

35. Only Like u4ic!

[SPKrazy]

55. From Now On...

I am Southkicker

:)

[u4ic]

65. .

:D :pals:

[applegrove]

37. Maritimers are the best if I do say so myself!!!

[Giant Robot]

39. Silly person!

There's no such thing as Canadians.

[Liberal Veteran]

42. I'm just envious of them.

It must be nice to live in a country that seems to have some sense of fairness and sanity.

[RedCloud]

43. Ah our giant to the North...

I love you guys but I want to tell you hockey pucks that the plural of leaf is leaves. Hence, the Toronto Maple Leaves, not Leafs or Loafs.

[redwitch]

44. Our northern neighbors are ok by me.

Nice country, nice people. I even know the words to their national anthem. :-)

[Kali]

45. oh there are one or two I'm kinda fond of...

;-)

[Lost-in-FL]

46. I hate them so much...

I married one. ;-)

[MAGICBULLET]

49. ya darn tootin'

I love Canadians - I'm the only Latino in NY that adamantly follows hockey - crazy hosers

[fudge stripe cookays]

52. I loved one so much, I married him!

:D

[Lautremont]

56. Two Yankee women respondents to this thread have

married Canadians. This indicates that our grand scheme, "Steal All Yer Women, Eh?" is on track for completion on its target date, early- to mid-2937.

[fudge stripe cookays]

78. he he.

Well it wouldn't be so easy if the American menfolk valued our supreme gifts, now would it? I, for one, support our new Tim-bit munching, Unibroue-guzzling spousal units.

[bridgit]

58. Like em...

[SOteric]

62. It really depends on the basting sauce.

They're nice poached in beer, but if you boil them in broth they're a bit like hockey pucks.

[AshevilleGuy]

70. I like your bear cubs. Do you keep them in the bathtub??? n/t

[dEMOK]

71. I Love Canadians. It's the Visigoths I Don't Trust... n-t

[Bryn]

73. Love Them!

I lived in gated community in Homestead, FL where most of residents were seasonal residents from Canada. They were lovely people and I loved to party with them. Unfortunately, most of them left because of those hurricanes that started hitting Florida in 2004 thru 2005. We had 3 flags waving...USA, Florida and Canada flags out there, but Canada flag got taken out because they are no longer there. My next door neighbors were Canadians and I loved them! It was sad when they left. I have since left as well to live in Arkansas.

[underpants]

75. Steve's okay Tom eh not so much and Brian is well let's just not say

[fudge stripe cookays]

79. What about Gordie?

You can't have a list of Canadians with no Gordie. It's just wrong, eh?

[underpants]

82. Okay I'll admit it

:cry:

I don't know any Canadians I've never been to Canada I don't even have an uncle named Bob

:hide::cry:

[fudge stripe cookays]

83. boo.

You know some Canadians in the Lounge, silly. There's plenty of em!

But the first rule of thumb you must learn is that all Canadian men are named Gordon. I began picking up on this naming convention several years ago upon my first visit. reprehensor himself had never noticed it until I pointed it out to him.

Probably noticed it because of the severe dearth of Gordons where I'm from.

:D

[youthere]

80. They aren't bad, but you have to marinate them for a long time.

[LynneSin]

81. Who invited the damn canadians to DU anyways?

:hide:
