CANADIANS Eh.....

Born and raised in Canada, but I'm a terrible Canadian, apparently.

I don't drink beer, don't go to Tim Hortons and you couldn't pay me to watch hockey. Never owned a pair of skates in my life and even having to hear it at the bar feels like an ice pick piercing my eardrums.

Wine/whiskey... Starbucks... Raptors.


Kind of ironic that you're post 99 eh?
 
I played hockey up in Kamloops for a longtime. Kelowna for a short time and Vancouver for a short time. I think about and a-gainst where the words that I remember and eh...
 
Canuck from beautiful London Ontario, halfway between Detroit and Toronto. I once had an argument with a girl from Bemidji, Minnesota about living in Canada. She was absolutely convinced that I must live in an igloo and drive a dogsled. She got really ticked off when I told her that I actually live farther south than she does...

Can't skate worth a darn, lousy hockey player. Prefer Starbucks to Tim's, but I still drink a lot of Tim's. No such thing as bad beer - some are just a whole lot better than others, and most Southern ones are pretty dicey, but I can always drink 2 for 1... But I also like good single malt and Italian reds!
 
I've always felt I was a Canadian who, due to a series of ineffable and unfortunate cosmic events, was forced to suffer the indignity of being born south of the border in America.
...eh.

Hockey is the only sport I truly understand. The music that gets selected to play on the radio Is better on average up there imo. And when I've visited there ive always felt more at home somehow.
 
Born in Toronto , moved to Windsor Ontario when I was less than 1 year old .
Windsor the home of Hiram Walker's Canadian Club whisky and surrounded on three sides by lakes and beaches in the most southern part of Canada !

Played university intramural hockey for about 6 years . Currently race a dirt track stock car with my brother, I built the engine and do all the fixing after each race night of banging and crashing and side swiping.

Gotta love the Great White North ! ... and the McKenzie brothers eh. lol
 
Born and raised in London Ontario. Attended Fanshawe College, Music Industry Arts and moved to Hog Town in the late 80's.
Would absolutely love to get out of this poop hole of humanity, but life, work and relatives keep me here...
If I'm not playin my bass, I'm probably fishin!
Pass the back bacon!
