3. The size of our footballs fields, one less down, and bigger balls. (I have to admit, that doesn't necessarily make it a better game!!!) You admit it's unimportant.

4. Baseball is Canadian - First game June 4, 1838 - Ingersoll, ON If the first game was in 1838, why was it banned in 1791 in Pittsfield, MASSACHUSETTS?

5. Lacrosse is Canadian Developed hundreds or thousands of years before Europeans ever reached the Americas.

6. Hockey is Canadian This one is true, but you still can't beat us Americans at it, can you?

7. Basketball is Canadian Honestly? It's very widely known that it was invented in Springfield, MA. These lies are getting a bit blatant...

8. Apple pie is Canadian Yeah, because nobody from Central Asia to England made pies before Canada existed... right.

9. Mr. Dress-up could kick Mr. Rogers' aZZ I have no idea who that is, but Mr. Rogers won the Ultimate Showdown, so he's pretty much invincible.

10. Tim Hortons beats Dunkin' Donuts Dunkin Donuts runs the richest country in the world. Can't beat that.

11. In the war of 1812, started by America , Canadians pushed the Americans back past their White House. Then we burned it, and most of Washington .. We got bored because they ran away. Then, we came home and partied........ Go figure. Mostly true, if you only replaced "Canadians" with "British".

12. Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered to Germany. They would have if they had been given the chance.

13. We have the largest English population that never ever surrendered or withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere. EVER. (We got clobbered in the odd battle but prevailed in ALL the wars) Because nobody bothered taking your land... it's all just ice and moose.

14. Our civil war was fought in a bar and lasted a little over an hour. Yeah, there's that French blood at work there.

15. The only person who was arrested in our civil war was an American mercenary, he slept in and missed the whole thing. He showed up just in time to get caught. A war so small that it didn't wake up a mercenary? Pitiful.

16. A Canadian invented Standard Time. Though it was stolen from the British, who already had instituted GMT.

17. The Hudsons Bay Company once owned over 10% of the earth's surface and is still around as the world's oldest company. Except it's owned by an American company.

18. The average dog sled team can kill and devour a full grown human in under 3 minutes. (That's more information than I need!) So... why is it good that technophobic Canadians can get away with murder?

19.. We know what to do with the parts of a buffalo. I honestly doubt that even a significant minority of Canadians do. Besides, who got most of the buffalo? (Hint: Think due south of Canada.)

20. We don't marry our kin-folk. And neither do we.

21. We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, Velcro, zippers, insulin, penicillin, garbage bags and the telephone. Also short wave radios that save countless lives each year. Wtf is that, Kawasaki, a bodily hormone can't be invented, NASA, an American, a Scot, of course you needed something to collect all of this garbage in, and ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL. Did you really think you could claim the TELEPHONE??? Oh, and that last one was an Italian, Marconi.

22. We ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell about it. Which is really an accomplishment, isn't it?

23. A Canadian invented Superman. If by "invented", you mean "was the first to draw this character invented by an American,"

24. We have coloured money. So do we.

25. Our beer advertisements kick aZZ {Incidently...so does our beer} Beer is beer. There's pretty much no difference between beers of the same weight.

BUT MOST IMPORTANT !


The handles on our beer cases are big enough to fit your hands with mitts on. Which you wouldn't need if you were smart enough to live somewhere warm...



OOOoohhhhh..... Canada !!



. Oh yeah... And our elections only take one day. Because you have fewer people...
