Americans V Canadians?
What’s the deal lads?
Can someone please enlighten me to the finer points as to WHY you guys constantly take the piss out of one another particularly Americans towards their Canadian cousins?
Just curious!
P.S. keep it clean now…

I’m pretty sure it’s something similar to you and the English.
Or us and the ‘Sheep Rooters’. Kiwis.
We are virtually indistinguishable.
Kind of like the Irish and the Scottish, the French and the French-Canadians, the Aussies and the Kiwis.

In some countries, you can get killed for that 
You must not have met many of those people if you can’t distinguish the french from the french canadians…

Killed in Canada means banned from playing hockey for a month.
All in good fun. Canada is a great country with hot women and good beer.
Always enjoyable to make a few jokes.

Look up “manifest destiny”
The Americans at one point got to thinking it was thier right to own Canada as well. And despite a few botched attempts to reach that goal…it never happened.
But that was ages ago.
And here we are now with two societies that are “virtually indistiguishable” moreso because the American’s take over our way of living through mass media bombardment.
They may as well have succeeded all those years ago.
One good thing that comes of us being seperate…we don’t have a complete idiot for a ruler of our country (like you Americans do), instead we picked a Nazi wannabe (cuz apparently we’ve become just as stupid).
AllTraps steps off soapbox.

Same can’t be said for New Zealand.
Canadians, you’re not alone-
Americans are just sensitive bitches these days.
If I’d get 10 grams of protein each time some jackass mentions the damn war and pulls out some idiotic Adolf remarks, I could easily bulk to 500lbs.

Just a bit of friendly rivalry…
Weatherman: “It looks like there’s another cold front coming down from Canada”
Dad: “Those damn canadians”

Ya, but you can get shot in the US just for popping your chewing gum bubble too close to an trigger-happy Texan.
Lol, just read myself: trigger-happy Texan… that’s redundant.

Well Zen warrior is from the Republic of Quebec, so it all kind of works out.
One for the Kiwis.
Canada’s political system is a parliamentary government. We still have the queen on our coins, some of which are $1 & $2. We use the metric system.
We tend to think we are smarter than Americans because we know more about them than they know about their neighbors to the north. This is because all we do is watch American television. Canadians know nothing about their neighbors to the north, because they make even worse television than we make.
We don’t all speak French, or say aboot. We all say eh. Every one last one of us. All our polish jokes are replaced with newfie jokes.
While its questionable to say we have better beer, we brew our beer at a stronger percentage of alcohol. Our hobbies are watching Americans getting really drunk while drinking Canadian Budweiser.

Remember, Alaska is more than twice as big as Texas and has less 'nados.
There is nothing wrong with Canadia perce. Its just when the brain stays frozen for six months out of the year due to temperature, its hard to take those people seriously. =)

Only because we all live in igloos for 6 months of the year.
And it’s not Canadia it’s Canadian thank you very much.
I know I know. Stop being so anal about spelling damnit.
