I have no objection to Americans discussing Canada my problem is the
abysmal ignorance of Canadian affairs found in the huge majoruty of
Americans. At least I have lived in the US for a time and have a
passing knowledge of things there...just enough to know how little I
know. Check your knowledge of Canada
(1) What is the population of Canada.
(2) What are the "founding nations"
(3) What are the official languages
(4)What are the ten provinces
(5)Who is the Prime Minister
(6)Who are the candidates for leadership of the Liberal party
(7)Which is bigger: Ontario or Texas.
(8)How many provinces can you name.
(9)How many Canadians are fighting in Afghanistan
(10) Why aren't there any Canadians fighting in Iraq

I wrote these of the top of my head as being things that Canadians
would know. If you can answer most of these questions, you would have
enough knowledge to discuss Canadian topics. I will supply the
answers if there is any interest.

(11) What do you call a Cannuk with an I.Q. of a hundred?

A province.

The correct answer is: Smarter than Slow Code, DxAss and Cuhulin
combined.

Ah, John, I see your back from the mental hospital. That standing in
line for health care must really suck.

SC

Even if the Health Services were that way, it would still
be
better
than standing in line to be inducted into "national service" for Iraq.

I have "a" question regarding "Canada". I went to McDonalds last night and
when I bought a meal, they had something referring to a "survey" listed -
they wanted folks to participate in and have chances to win prizes. In that
text, they made mention of "Canadians" being welcome also - except for the
Providence of Quebec - I believe. BUT - they had also stated someting to the
effect that the "Canadians" had to submit to a "special skills question".
What the hell is up with that? Is McDs claiming Canadians are stupid? I'm
curious as to WHAT type of "special skills question" AND WHY? That text made
NO mention of Americans having to be subjected to the same "skills". Why
didn't they include say China, Japan, Russia, etc.... where other McDs may
be? Why not the Americans? WHY single out the Canadians?

That has to be one of the "dumbest" things I've ever heard of - and for a
"major" corporation to be doing so - is downright weird as hell. It wouldn't
surprise me if the Canadians started to "Boycott" McDs. I sure wouldn't
blame them!

McDs, not only have I been growing tired of your food and last night may
have been my last visit, now you're going to chase people away with your
"Bias". THAT was PLAIN IGNORANT.

Perhaps because, as in many states in the US, drawings are concidered
gambling and are illegal so they make it a legal contest by asking who is
buried in Grant's tomb and pick the winner from the correct answers.

You "could" be right, but it still seems weird, in that you're not
"technically" gambling. Just "replying" to a "survey" and are made eligible
to win prizes by doing so. I guess it is a matter of how thin you want to
split the hair.
