Dare to Face Canadian Living?

Canada. The North. The true north. Strong and free. Free to wander the vast, endless expanse. The wild west of the north. Where the cowboys of the north face the bitter chill and desert like tundra, where the gun is not law, and our heroes speed around ice with only three teeth, getting the job done with only sticks… And those are the women!

There is much to be afraid of in this frozen desert. Risking the chance of stepping into the sub-zero winds, or to feel the loving hug of Maple Leaf sporting Polar bear, or even simply leaving the stove on when leaving your modest igloo abode. And that's simply the city life, with the rural boding such dangers as the roaming Hortan tribes, armed with scalding twenty-five minute old coffee, and stale crullers.

The west of the north wasn't won with the fastest draw, or bravest heist. No, it was won with the brightest of red jackets, stoutest of stiff upper lips, and most polite of attitudes. The Yanks think their west was wild. They got nothing on the wild North West that makes up this frozen tundra. Wild enough it has yet to be claimed. No red jacket, stiff upper lip or polite complacency can tame the final frontier of ice, hockey, and donuts. The rabid tribes of long let-down Maple Leaf hockey fans roam the north-west, looking for any foolish soul that wanders into their land and sporting another teams colours. Then there is the vicious Tim-bit scavengers, wandering the ice and snow, a rolling ball of terror and pastry, deadly in the most controlled of times. Lastly, the coy Orange jacket. Hungry for attention and recognition, fighting to be heard amongst a sea of 'Schwinigates' and 'Diefen-bucks'.

This is Canada. The North. The true north. Strong and Free. Free to wander the Frozen expanse. The Wild West of the north. Where the rink is king, and the language is bilingual. Where a stiff upper lip, bright red jacket, and flat tailed rodent will get you through the day, and the ability to Jersey will make you a man.

This is Canada.

Polar Bears are the awesomest creatures on the face of the Earth!! You have my envy for living in a place where they roam free.

Everything else about Canada sucks. (And, Lord, yes, I am just kidding! Please don't ban me.)

Peace.

lmao!

oh btw, Tim Horton's is now owned by Wendy's The question is, are they influencing us, or is it actually an insidious plot to turn every US hamburger junkie into a cream-filled donut?

IMO Alaska should still be part of Russia

@Thug....That's all? The Polar Bears give enough dung in one go to fuel the Yukon's electricity for months at a time....that pittance might be able to fuel Yellowknife for a few hours........

@Z Yes those polar bears take one mighty dump. But it pales in comparison to the amount of natural energy american talk show/radio show commentators produce in hot air.

I predict that Canada will eventually conquer the entire Western Hemishpere, subjecting all to a tyrannical reign under the heavy fist of the last surviving SCTV alumni. Mark my words.

And yes, Shatner has been planting the seeds of this now ever since he began to "appear" on television in the United States, Just a coincedence?
