It's because they border North Dakota - same thing. (And I like them both, by the way.)

I actually feel guilty laughing at that! I know its dangerous to generalize, but all the Canadians I have met have been really nice folks, and seem to be welcomed whereever they go abroad...

Same here, but they do indeed end every sentence with a lilting upturn in their voice...the way normal people end a question.

They are comical people though.

Funniest thing I have seen was a group of French Canadian soldiers doing a tug-o-war...strange thing was each end of the rope was tied to a tree and the two teams were strung out along the rope pulling their guts out...To this day I have no idea what they were trying to achieve!

They were just training for the big day when it is a real tug of war. Cheers NC eh!! P.S. Trained with many APO's they were Acting Pilot Officers but had to wear the white flash thus no salute.

Whoops, I'm ending my sentences (above) with a question mark, aren't I?

Reminds me of an Olie Joe Prater (?) joke. Said he was in Canada and someone asked him if he wanted a Moose Head (there's that question again!).

His response: Moose Head? Wow, I've has some grizzly pussy, but never any moose head! .........Ba-da-bum!

Partsman;
Good evening to you sir, hopefully this finds you and yours well.

Since you've already covered apologies on behalf of us, I'll just put up this instructional video for the edification and education of those of us who aren't conversant in Canuck.



Speaking of which, it's my "Friday" so I believe I'll partake in that most Canadian of activities and remove the top on a brown bottle.....

All the best to you and yours this weekend sir.

Dwayne
