For the record, the Hudson's Bay Company was founded in London by Prince Rupert and partners. HBC had little to do with Quebec until its merger with the Montreal-based Northwest Company in 1821.

I won't bother with the rest of your silliness, Cmmd, other than to suggest that you crack open a book every once in a while - you have much work to do!

So does that mean that Quebec is not part of Canada? Cause if that's the case then I think they might owe us some money......

[danikyvor]

You know, i find it funny that English Canada is expected to learn french and yet the French can't be bothered to learn English, nor even use it properly.

And no, hockey was not invented in Europe. It was imported from...guess where? CANADA. Just like the States. Though I'm sure with the Europeans it was the fascination that grown men would go around on skates, smacking at a puck or each other. Like Football, only on skates and with a stick. lol

I have to strongly disagree with you here, dimoreien. There are probably a good number of valid gripes that can be enumerated about Quebec, but not your statement that francophone Quebecers "can't be bothered to learn English"(!).

A LOT of Quebecers (including Québécois) are fluent in English. Many more have at least a working knowledge of it, even in regions of the province where there are very few English-speaking people and thus relatively less opportunity to learn the language.

[Newfy]

Canada Kicks Ass because it is full of Canadians that are proud to be Canadian and don't have to be afraid of showing it. Unlike Britain where you now can't even display a Union flag in public without fear of being accused a racist by ethnic minorities. I AM CANADIAN and proud of it!!

[ridenrain]

The greatest concentration of Canadian humor, ever. It may have started in Chicago but Edmondton was where it shone brighest. I cannot think of a larger, more consistantly funny show.

3. Tax is 7 per cent instead of approximately 200 per cent for the rest of the country.

Well, just to be picky! Add another 6% if you stay overnight in a hotel/motel in Alberta. And probably a lot of other "taxes" that I haven't noticed yet.

$1:

4. You never have to worry about car roll-back if you have a standard transmission.

Oh YEAH? Since when? It is a great fallacy that Saskatchewan is 100% flat. Many areas of Saskatchewan are hills and valleys, forest, lakes, rivers and streams. In fact, we have more lakes than our wealthy neighbourhood to the WEST and the hunting and fishing here rival anything anywhere in NA.

Don't want to spoil your day Erinites or pick on you but I thought I should rebutt those two points. I'll leave it up to someone else to rebutt some of the others?

How about this one, Canada Kicks Ass because YOU GUYS ARE THE FRIENDLIEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD YAYEEE!. (Sorry U.S.A).
