Is this an insult to Canada or just a stupid joke? </font>[/QUOTE]<font color=pink>An insult, obviously. To quote Robin Williams-
"Canada is like the loft apartment over a really great party." :D

I can't remember the last time I drove the speed limit, I'm always at least 10 over [img]graemlins/littleangel.gif[/img] </font>

I think that the old people would freeze in Canada. We could send them to Mexico instead... ::gets a mental image of spring break in Cancun, with two old people for every attractive person:: Geh.. Florida it is, then. We can kick it out of the union. Castrate America!

And I heard a female comedian say that Canada was like America's attic. "You go up there and you're like, I comletely forgot all this <censored> is up here! There's people living here, stores.."
I forget her name, but she was funny. Anyone? She was on Comedy Central Presents.

That's it!!! I'm tired of all you people insulting my country!! I could say a hundred insults about the U.S. It's not the only country that's cold. Quite acting so ignorant. The very southern part of Canada is almost no colder than the Northern part of the Unites States (like New York)

And stop all this sh*t about old people freezing!!
I need to calm down as I'm almost furious from such statements.

Is this an insult to Canada or just a stupid joke? </font>[/QUOTE]Gab, easy there. I think you are reading too much into LoA's last comment there. I at least find it more insulting to elders than to Canada. And LadyB always posts cheeky comments. ;) I hope you have more pride of our country than to be insulted by such comments.

Anywho, I am one of the drivers you dislike Pauly. I always drive about 10 km/h below the limit when I have my children in the car. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Gab, let me say that I love Canada. I think people make fun of it because they're jealous. I forget who said this, but it's true:
"They have free medical care... They have almost no crime... Their environment is pristine.. Can somebody please explain to me WHY we make fun of them?"

The same reason we make fun of you? Neighborly teasing??

Edit: I'm assuming you are an American. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Aye, that makes enough sense
(And yes. For now.)

Obviously I have offended a few people for my idea to send the old people to Canada to freeze to death.I'm very sorry it was not my intention to offend so I apologise. [img]smile.gif[/img] So I propose we send the old people to Mexico instead as suggested. Well...actually the Gulf of Mexico. Snip drivers license in half then throw them out of the back a C-130 transport plane [img]smile.gif[/img] Since there are no Mexicans on the Ironworks that I know of this should offend nobody [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm sorry if I overreacted. It just seemed that remarks like sending people to Canada and freezing to death seemed like an insult.

Lord of Alchohol should have more respect for his elders :D

But I am elderly, I'll be 40 next month ;)Off too the Gulf soon [img]tongue.gif[/img]
