We use the washroom not the restroom.

We still spell using the Queen's English and put the "U" in its proper place in words like Humour & Colour

We express distance in "klicks" not miles.

Booze comes in twenty-sixers, 40 Pounders, and Mickeys. A Texas Mickey sounds American but is as Canadian as Maple Syrup.

1 Canadian gallon is as large as 1.2 American gallons. (That's why Canadian cars get such great gas mileage!)

Real Whisky - not Whiskey - is made with rye grain.

We wear runners on our feet not sneakers.

Poutine, Nanaimo bars, butter tarts, and split-pea soup are all foods.

Robertson screwdrivers are 100% Canadian.
