It will be so long as I have any say in the matter....... I am a (French-) Canadian who happens to live in Quebec, NOT the other way around..... Mind you, I grew up in Ontario so I wasn`t brainwashed by the separatist media.....

No offense taken bro, it's all good

It just happens that I sometimes feel like a minority here for being proud of the maple leaf and all it stands for.....

you're not insulting anyone. I just think the seperatist thing is total BS.

Not myself a Canadian, but my older brother is and my sister in law as well, figure that... both live in Toronto less then a mile apart So next time I will come to visit, maybe I can meet some of you?
I don't understand this separatism thing... why??? I think if Quebec ever separates it will be an economical disaster for Quebec.

I headed through Burlington today on my way to the Hammer. At least the traffic wasn't as bad as it was yesterday.

I hate snow.

I find it strange how a poster on this thread, has called us 'slag' and 'pepsi's' a few months ago on another thread, now wants to move into one of our beautiful cities as he says.
I take that back. It's not strange, it's funnily ironic.

I am, but traitor to the cause...moved to sunny California...

honestly just basic things like the high gouging cost of car and motorcycle insurance would make it difficult to move back, but I do dream of returning someday.

See, I think its great that there is a forum like this where Canadians can share ideas and communicate. I mean, Canadians are people too, right?

I would just like to thank you guys for letting me cross the Peace Bridge every weekend as a teenager and partying my *** off on the Garrison strip in the land of low drinking age and superior beer.

Oh but not for that time my car was searched at the border and they found a knife in a jacket pocket which I had to "surrender to the crown". I mean what is that about? Queen is kinda a bully huh? Thats why we threw off imperial rule early on.

Smokin, thank you for helping us figure that yes, we are people too. You must be a close relative of Homer Simpson...

Pocket knife. Why bother with a pocket knife when you have the right to walk around with AK47 ? You gotta love the second amendment.

Yeah, well it turns out that your "mounties" cant get me in our land, but frown upon the baloney of bringing weapons into the great white north. I mean, they basicly told me to "take off hoser". That is your countries motto right? I mean I did see slap shot and the Mcenzie movie, so am kinda an expert.

Long live Alex Trebec!

Yeah the McKenzie bros are my heroes.

Funny you should mention Slap Shot. Had the privilege of meeting
Paul Newman a few times, and that's the movie he hated having done the most, and for us, it's his best ! Just goes to say, one mans thrash is another mans art.
