Talking Oh canada heres i comes

well I landed, got my PR card, SIN & bankcard, buddy
woo hoo.,

PS AIR CANADA sucks bigtime, dude
exec class and aircrew/ground crew where a joke, eh
planes are old (airbus going back econmy), guy
BA a lot better, dey know how to treat buisness class true....
nuttin like british warmth and hospitality I suspect.

Doc's bedside manner left a lot to be desired as well,
and dont even get me started on car insurance in Toronto !

BUT......................

Had a good time, 2 weeks with the missus, in the end went up to the 1000 islands and had a meal at one of the bars where i had the best "old fasioned Liver and onions , with mash carrots and gravy" that I have ever tasted WOW

1st Anniversary meal at Moxsies, at square 1, not what I wanted to do, but missus suggested.. FOOD was great, though clientelle was a tad under dressed for what I wanted.

what else did I do...

Timmy Hortons, Applebies, Home Depot, Rona, Drove wifes Dodge caravan Mini-van, Coyote Jacks Grills, square 1 mall, drove back from 1000 islands using the TomTom , the 401, learning my address, just off Mavis and Matheson, learning to turn right at red lights... NO ROUNDABOUTS, having to TIP everywhere. Maple syrup and pancakes. STOPPING at stop sign, noty just rolling. and 70kmh is a LOT SLOWER than 70 MPH petrol 91c's a litre, uk £1.20

anything else I forgot ?

I WAS SO GLAD to drive the porker when i got back real dilema with selling her, in all my travels did not see any 44's and certainly no s2's

hey yall
check dis out

oh you're no fan of us?
'cause our movie and TV shows are so amateur?
yeah, we laugh it off, that don't really bother me
look, we ain't serious unless we really gotta be
humorous attitude like Kids in the Hall
like Jim Carey, Mike Myers, hell we claiming them all
it's the Great White North
home of the funniest actors
the brunt of the joke
with an abundance of laughter
the Red and White flag
keep it high keep it visual
people say Canada and get stereotypical
think we finish every sentence with buddy or bye
and if it ain't that its either dude, eh or guy
(Canadaka eh)
yeah we consider it people
and smoking marijuana
we consider it legal
still doing rap like the 1990's
but that's how we like it off timed and grimey

Adrian, just some tips for you,

Use:
gas instead of petrol
garbage instead of dustbin
french fries instead of chips
chips intstead of crisps

pronounce it aluminum instead of "alumineum"

LOL

Hey, welcome to the land of the free and the home of the taxed

Looks like you've already seen much of what this province has to offer - the 1000 islands are awesome, aren't they? And then, well, suburban shopping - yep, that's pretty much Ontario life! Sorry I missed you last weekend at the GTG.

and the less obvious ones

Bobby pin not hair grip
Truck not a lorry
wrench not a spanner
and there are more descriptive words in the dictionarry than " Brilliant" so you can use a few different ones.

O Canada we love our beaver"

That means you went through Kingston. Too bad I missed you.

Saying Air Canada sucks is like saying water is wet. When are you moving?
