Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada Better Pizza Canada vs USA ???

For me, and I'm funny that way, even if the USA pizza is way better than ours, it is not worth the four and a half hour drive round trip to International Falls, MN, to get it. I'll 'suffer' the Canadian stuff, and not complain, and if you Yanks can't stomach our food, there is a solution.

Pizza Wars! Let's hold it to that.
So, the Yanks should stay at a camp owned by a Yank? Or, are you saying something else?

Taking tongue from cheek,I still don't understand any big difference in foods, Canada vs U.S. I love the rye breads, and can't kick about any of the store meats. The ethnic diveristy makes shopping foods in Dryden, Ontario intresting.

wabigoon;
Hopefully this finds you doing well on this rainy May evening sir.

While I'd never speak for anyone else on either side of the medicine line, I've always done my best to welcome visitors here - wherever they may be from - and likewise as mentioned above with the sole exception of the one time with the Homeland Security folks felt welcomed on our many trips onto your side of the line.

For us part of the fun of travel is experiencing the food of a slightly different culture - like being served potato chips with breakfast in the Dakotas or fried spam with breakfast in Oahu.

The offer for a coffee or something liquid and thirst quenching is still open to you or for that matter any other 'Fire folks finding themselves traveling up Highway 97 in the south Okanagan.

Oh, in the spirit of a sharing some refreshments, I'd offer this educational video for our US 'Fire brothers.



I hope you enjoyed the video wabigoon and all the best to you and yours this week.

Regards,
Dwayne

Thanks for the usual kindess Dwayne.
Your offer is returned to you. Stop in any time.
I have thought of Canadians, and Americans, (Yanks), as like first cousins, we share Britsh grandparents.

British, huh? Actually my Dad's side were more likely Flemish or Dutch, and my Mom's side were Hungarian to the core. If that works out to British in someone's calculator of ethnicity, then British it is. My ex father-in-law said he thought I was "half Scotch, half sever-up."

I've tasted wabigoon's corn fed beef. It ain't bad stuff. I've also tasted some local grown beef . . . . it is also pretty good. I don't trash free victuals.

I am thinking British from a culture standpoint.

The Border Bar in I-Falls has excellent pizza.

I think that the "British" issue in both the USA and Canada, is more in terms of founding cultures as "wabigoon" suggests, as the MAJOR and definitive founding cultures of BOTH nations WERE and still ARE "British".

The Brits. were NOT the "first" and the "French" DID NOT found Canada, as so many of those arrogant greaseballs often claim, the founding peoples were GERMANIC tribes from various regions of northwestern "Yurp" and this started with the Norse voyages of Karlsefni, Hrolfsen, Leif Eriksen and many others in the latter years of the first millenium A.D. (NOT "B.C.E" as pseudo-intellectual academics with secular-socialist agendas would have it) and continued with the "Hanseatic League".

This evolved into the Brtish and French and Dutch colonies in "The New World" which were eventually subsumed into the British Empire.

So, it IS largely correct to say that both Canada and the USA are "British" in origin, but, the process of becoming the nations we know now has been a complex and oftimes fractious one, not all "British" in fact or final result.

Whatever. I thought the USA rebelled against the Brits so they could become a separate nation -- an American Nation.

But I will defer to you educated types. I'm just a dumb old country boy -- a decidedly CANADIAN country boy -- no Brit roots here!

Kutenay, you know very well that the First Nations were the founders....

Well, most of us are typing in some sort of English, fractured as it may be.
The Canadian dollar coin bears the likeness of the England's Queen, and the old flag used the Union Jack. Quite a bit of British showing.

I only like pizza from the northeast US particularly New York. I've had pizza all over the US but haven't been impressed outside of the northeast.

We have a winner and all the way from Sweden. He wins a.....

When did Seattle move to Montana?

I love it! Great song!

Seriously?

Founders may not be the appropriate term...;-)

But we both know Kutenay likes to forget that part of our history.

The "pizza" I had in Newfoundland last fall was lousy...
But, the rutabagas were phenomenal

Ah, no...
