As a Canadian...I love America

Might want to cool it with the whole gun thing...thats a bit extreme though.

Always see BC and Alberta tags on cars in this area. Neighbor just down the street has an Alberta car in front of his house right now - family visiting. I dunno - going to either one of those provinces didn't feel much different than Washington, Idaho or Montana to me (save for the border crossing and money).

I believe in Canada, people are considered people, and speech is considered free speech.

sounds too good to be true....

Here in the US of A, corporations are considered people, and money is considered free speech.

I spnd about a month a year in Canada never seen hate. One guy bitched about "illegal aliens" (Americans who over stay and become bumbs) though.

My friends in Canada have lots of guns. I take my guns to CN when I hunt. Not sure there is much difference. We have more gun crime because US's poor is poorer than canadas so it's to be expected.

I prefer this:

And the best part is she's a former Military Police Officer and a competitive shooter, so she actually knows how to use the thing.

Since we are just a few months away from the 90th anniversary of the Canadians Burning Down the White House, this seems a timely post.

canada burned down the white house in 1924?

Everyone of my friends and family hate you guys.

I don't. I love all you guys for all your quirks and crazy ass personal beliefs. Don't ever stop being you guys. Personal hero of mine is Benjamin Franklin.

We love Canada too, just keep your damn polar vortices to yourselves, mkay? Thx.

And if I'm not mistaken, it was actually British settlers (being housed in Canada) who burned down the White House during the War of 1812. So I'm not sure what's up with that Smithsonian.com story title. I'd like to think they're above trolling for hits, but who knows.

If I lived in Canada, I would eat bacon all day and start drinking beer, not what passes for beer in the US.

Canadians didn't burn down the White House in 1812, that's just something that they made up. It's a weird country, especially since its most famous person is Justin Bieber. That's kind of shameful, IMO.

I would say that YOUR most famous person is also Justin Bieber.

Not really, there are a lot of very famous Americans throughout history, not to mention that Justin Bieber is not American. For example, even American politicains such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and even modern Presidents are more well known than Justin Bieber in a historical context. And then there are famous American inventors, businessmen, athletes, film professionals, scientists, etc.

But it is without a doubt that Justin Bieber is the most famous and well known Canadian of all-time. No other Canadian can even compare to Justin Bieber. It's pretty sad, but it's the truth. Justin Bieber is the most influential Canadian of all-time. I'm not sure exactly what that says about Canada, but it is probably pretty sad.

The second most influential Canadian is probably that guy from Nickelback. That's really sad. Canada is really awful if the most influential person that it has produced is Justin Bieber!

Influential and famous are not equal. Your trolling attempts are funny and amusing.
