I think they already acquired their independence...
...they were just polite about it.

Canadians are not people
Americans are not Canadians
Americans may or may not be people
People is a magazine
Canadians are therefore not magazines
Not much information here

My parents are both Canadians
My Dad was a Newfie, and my mom was a Ukrainian farmer in Alberta
They came here before I was born and became American citizens
But since my parents were Canadian, that makes me a Canadian Citizen, which I wear as a Badge of Honor.
I ain't no stinking stoopid emericun, that's for sure.
or whatever
My wife agrees that Canadians are not people, they're pod people or maybe aliens from Mars, all my not-normal quirks can be attributed to my Canadian heritage,
and don't get my wife started on my Mother, who has no filter on her tongue.

"They are the subjects of her putrid majesty. Mere peons doing the dirty colonial business of the rotting empire."
May I remind you, Brook, who won The War of 1812?

P.S. I got goosebumps watching that curling shot, Gunkie. Dang, what a shot.
Anyone remember the OTHER Jennifer Jones the curler? From Nova Scotia I think? Always chewing gum. Bovine. Kinda hot.

Canadians had made a choice to sell their country to foreigners.
(especially to money-laundering overseas mafia types which are having a big party in BC real estate casino now)
Typical greedy, careless and spoiled boomer generation and clueless and weak millenials generation in the Western countries...ones sold for greed and dubious benefits of the housing bubble (you can't get back your land. They don't make more of it)...and others didn't care to fight it. Gambling their country away. Average home value 440K...good luck. They'll have to devalue their currency for real Canadians of the future generations to be home owners.

What about Bryan Ferry?
Or the William Shatner school of acting?
It's gonna take a lot of Molsons to make that better...

I've met a few Canadians. They looked like people but had some weird aluminium hats.

All the Canadians I've met have been nice. Well, most anyway.

1812?
Wellington called it a draw but I say that the Empire lost much and gained little. Sure, some guy burned Washington but we sent him home in a body bag. I'll agree that the poor POM colonialists ended up staying Loyalist subjects of the Poxy Queens but other than gaining the right to extract resources from the locals and the right to kick Frenchies, what did you pinkies get from us? Nada mucho. Subjects! Peons!
Let's do remember that George III was undeniably insane and that his Daughter, the much admired Victoria, married her 1st Cousin. The Inbred Royals are an embarrassment.

I've made ten trips north of the border to poke around "America's Hat." Love them Kanuckians but hate the beer prices. What's up with that? With yer long winters and two full weeks of pour sleddin', you'd think the adult beverage recovery drinks would be more affordable. American wine was actually more affordable than Canadian beer in the parks.
Really want to visit Skaha. One on the list after retirement next year.
Go, eh!
