Some funny facts!

[Sir Goulum]

60% of Canadians say that America is their friend.
48% of Americans say Britain is their friend.
15% of Americans say Canada is their friend.

In retrospective, why would they like Britain more than Canada, (no offense Britains!) speaking back to the American Revolution. This what my social teacher says anyways!

[TheThing]

because american kicked british ass, and now one is the other's bitch. it is a reflection of american unresolved control issue

ok, that was a cynic statement, but it is a joke *dry laugh*

[Azred]

The vast majority of Americans don't know even the most basic facts about Canada, except that some hockey players have come from there. Some of them couldn't even point to Canada on a globe...

[caleb]

Probably because the UK offers us more military help.

I was visiting the states one time with a friend and we got into a conversation with someone and mentioned we were from Canada. The guy looked at us blankly for a second and then said "oh, Canada... That's the place above us right?" My friend rolled his eyes and said "yes, in more ways than one..."

Yup I guessed you wear from Montreal before I looked at yourl ocation

I know where Canada is, there capitol is Ottawa, There west most province is the Yukon terrotory, there east most is New Foundland, there largest in size is Montreal. There flag consist of a Red line, then white, then red again, with a red maple leaf in the middle. The Mapple leaf is the national sign of Canada, there PM is Jean Cretin.

Hmm what else do I know about Canada, I heard that Toronto is the most internation city in Canada.

Oh and Eric Lindros if from Ontario and thats a big minus

I consider both countrys (Canada and Britan) to be friends as far as goverments go.

Now lets reverse is, how much to you know about America? Really how much?

[Glorfindel]

Their largest state is Texas

Uh, no. Texas is the 2nd largest state, in both size and population. California is way ahead of it in terms of population, and Alaska's quite a bit bigger.

[Glorfindel]

But isnt Alaska a different country???
