I can't believe I haven't seen this forum before this

Sign me up as Bob (of Bob and Doug)

Two things I want to add to the discussion:

Maratimers don't say aboot either, as a matter of fact the only people I've ever heard say aboot are Americans trying to make fun of Canadians - go figure.

How is that this forum has been up for a year and no one has mentioned our greatest national treasure - Canadian Beer (sorry Wayne, it was close)

Actually we already claimed the name 2-4 as we are a couple it suits us

The clan is still alive that is awesome. And there are even some Belinda Stronach References. Everyone that wanted in since I was last here is in and you have whatever name you wanted, welcome all.

Canadian Music rules we should have 100 per cent Can-Con and do away with all of that cookie cutter south of the boarder stuff. (That came out of nowhere eh).

Where does that stupid aboot thing come from? At least we don't say Dee-Kal and we know when and where to strategically place the powerful silent U.

Sorry about the long absence. Hush thanks for trying to make us official too bad we were turned down. We could do the canadian thing and write some passive aggressive letters about it.

P.S. Toronto is just a northern U.S. state with better beer.

you know, I only just read the first post on the thread.

len, it's "Je m'appelle M. Johnny LaRue".

I still don't know who he is though.

Pssst...Monsieur LaRue is from SCTV of old...John Candy's glamourous TV mogul, I believe.

(Happy Hallowe'en!)

Boo.

If you're interested in allies to the south, I'm half French Canadian and trapped in that land everyone in the U.S. seems to think is part of Canada; Vermont!

Since "Anne Murray" is in contention, I would like to request Dudley Do-Rite for my moniker! Go Team Clanada!

Johnny LaRue is indeed the fictional owner and operator of SCTV (or was Guy Cabelero the owner and Johnny the director) and lover of crane shots. He is not really french so I will pretend that my poor french is representative of this, and not of my not paying attention in my three years of french in Junior High.

Munchoboy welcome to the clan, as you well know from the many celebrities that we claim as our own, all you need is to be 1/16 canadian, have vacationed here for more than a fortnight and not be from Toronto and we will gladly accept you as one of our own.

What about Danny the Street?

For my 100th post I figured I'd stick my neck in the homeland.

Born in Southwestern Ontario...made a trip to Calgary for a few months, then moved back to Southwestern Ontario...entered that GTA thing for about a year, and am once again back in Southwestern Ontario.

I am....The Hart Foundation!

Southwestern Ontario sounds like a tricky way of saying toronto, but you can join anyway.

Welcome to the clan Hart Foundation.
I hear that Davey Boy's kid is supposed to start on RAW anyday now.

OH, who to choose, who to choose...

Bryan Adams? ...nah...

Jim Carey? ...nopers...

The Bare Naked Ladies? (oooo sooo tempting...) but no sir...

Instead, I select, in the 10th round (okay, page):

Leonard Cohen.


Yup, one of the greatest poetic song-writers - well, next to Tom Waits, but since Tommy isn't a Great White Norther...

(And I'm still pissed that Johnny LaRue was already taken...).

From Winnipeg here, and its frickin' freezing. (But when isn't it, eh?)

Nice to see the dedicated forum for us.

GO SENS!

Kitchener-Waterloo and Guelph area actually...

Please, it gets warm enough in the summer for mosquitoes the size of California Condors doesn't it?

At least that's what every Winnipegger I have ever met tells me...

It does, indeed, and your informants have not led you astray. We always get a couple of weeks of 30+ C weather, usually preceded by a week or so of rain, just to ensure the growth performance of that provincial bird.

But we have some incredibly hot women - so it all balances out.
