I AM CANADIAN!!!!


You Know your Canadian When:

You're not offended by the term, "Homo Milk."

You understand the phrase, "Could you pass me a serviette, I just
dropped my poutine, on the chesterfield."

You eat chocolate bars, not candy bars.

You drink pop, not soda.

You know what a Mickey and 2-4 mean.

You don't care about the fuss with Cuba. It's a cheap place to go for
your holidays, with good cigars.

You know that a pike is a type of fish, not part of a highway.

You drive on a highway, not a freeway.

You have Canadian Tire money in your kitchen drawers.

You know that Casey and Finnegan were not part of a Celtic musical
group.

You get excited whenever an American television show mentions Canada.

You brag to Americans that: Shania Twain, Jim Carrey, Celine Dion and
many more are Canadians.

You know that a Canadian was the C.E.O. of American Airlines from
1998-2003

You know what a touque is.

You know that the last letter of the English alphabet is always
pronounced "Zed" not "Zee".

You understand the Labatt Blue commercials.

You know how to pronounce and spell "Saskatchewan."

You perk up when you hear the theme song from "Hockey Night in Canada."

You were in grade 12, not the 12th grade.

"Eh?" is a very important part of your vocabulary and more polite than,
"Huh?"

Winter. Whenever you want it. And then some.

There's German food, Italian food, Chinese food, Armenian food, American
food, but NO Canadian food.

You call a "mouse" a "moose".

You like the Americans a little because they don't want Quebec either.
(so sorry about this one my Quebec friends)

Contests run by anyone other than the government have "skill-testing
questions" that winners must answer correctly before they can claim a
prize.

Everything is labelled in English and French.

Milk comes in plastic bags as well as cartons and plastic jugs.

Mountain Dew has no caffeine.

You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends from
Canada.

"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 Melissa!!
And I am Canadian!!!"

ahhh! thanks shan for reminding me of them mexicans.
no word of a lie i had 2 mexican ranch hands get into the cab one
night.the one said "we moo moo" and held up his hands.i thought ok but
where do they live?so i said slowly to them east of town? they nodded
yes.so i drove from westlock towards clyde(in bs.language 13km).i told
them to say cow when i got close to where they live.they did exactly
that! i almost busted a gut laughing when i told dispatch and the other
co workers.
