Default "O' Canada" Go Canucks!

Somebody at SITM asked me about this. I was trying to explain, but this was easier.

Don't care much for the rap but many Americans prolly do not know that basketball is a Canadian game with roots back to the Aztecks.

I know the Aztec game of which you speak, but I didn't know the Aztecs had made it past the plains and northern tribes into Canada. Might be a surprise to the Iroquois confederation, not to mention the Sioux.

I prefer lacrosse anyway, eh?

The only game where you have a weapon as part of your equipment.

(Hockey doesn't count because you're not supposed to hit anybody with that stick.)
