This is cute. I am gonna forward it to my Canadian cousin who teaches me all the cool Canadian stuff. Like eating "chips" with malt vinegar and that "Labatt" comes in many more than one variety aside from "Blue."
Neil Young is half Canadian!
That was so funny. I'm a Southern California girl myself. A close friend is coming home tomorrow after her first year at a Canadian college (Queens) and told me last night that she is now speaking like a Canadian. This was via email so I didn't get it until just now!
