To my knowledge Canada is a Social Democratic part of the British commonwealth with lax marijuana regulation and have a similar obsession with hockey that we in the U.S. have with hand egg.

As far as I can tell, all the good Canadian bands either were formed in Quebec, or have a front man from Quebec. Also, Canadians seem to be very pleasant people.

Was I at all accurate?

Not many, well under a hundred last time i checked. Then again, im not even sure canada has 100 troops to send. I'm pretty sure they don't have a standing military.
Canada has close to 3,000 soldiers deployed to Afghanistan alone. You must have gotten your numbers mixed up with how many Canadian soldiers have died there since this war began. Ass.

A brigade, you're right, my mistake. I always get brigade and battalion mixed up.

It's that place thats kinda the USA though shitter in every way?

Okay i'm kidding, your one of my countries colonies?

Okay again with the kidding, Canadas just a country like any other and as far as I can make out, quite a boring one.
Not boring, just less publicized that America.
Okay I'll run with this ball you've given me. Tell me a couple of awesome things about Canada?
The tourguides, hotel managers, cashiers are usually more pleasant (my personal experience, anyway) and we are statistically more laid-back and live longer than Americans
That sounds nice, not awesome :) Makes it sound like a friendly 4 star hotel where nothing interesting happens but it's still... nice.

Come on, tell me some awesome things about Canada.
Here's one, we technically have the best snipers in the world (irl not video games...as far as I know)

I know one thing about Canada and Canadians that has proved true again and again... they are obsessed with what other countries think of them as a nation.

We don't have 300 tornadoes or endless hurricanes rummaging throughout our country...and we don't have to be called "dumbass yanks" or "gringos" ;)

Um... Their current prime minister or whoever's in charge is republican? That guy is also in charge of filling the senate or whatever they have over there? They have more debt per person than America does? Is any of this right?
All of it, sadly.

Canada is where "Are You Afraid of the Dark" is from. One of the best shows that used to be on nick.

It is also the home of Three Days Grace, a band i like.

In french class i saw some pictures of places in canada, quebec i think, but i forgot everything i learned in that class XP.

Canada looks like a nice place but im too comfortable here in the US and don't want to move.

I'm not American, but I feel like taking a shot at this anyway.

You all ride moose, instead of driving cars, and the only liquid for sale is maple syrup.

...Does I win?
Moose are pretty freakin' expensive rides and would be the equivalent of one of those 'sports car' things that you people drive.

Most people use dogsleds. They are somewhat less reliable and require a lot of maintenance, but if you keep them running smoothly then they will glide you across kilometers of snow covered wasteland.

I live in Winnipeg (or as it is aptly named Winterpeg for its mild -40 degree winter days)
Better wear your toque, it's gonna be frosty!
(No seriously, if you go outside in winter without warm enough clothing you can get frostbite in like 1 minute)

well... not what America knows of Canada, but some of them does, I skipped some of the longer posts, or rather speed read them, since I was getting ashamed of having forgotten so much info about us (mostly dates.. I'm terrible with them). But I do know... or from my province anyway (N.-B.), we have Ketchup flavored chips, and our iced tea are either in cans or powder form. I'm not very constructive I know.. but fun facts I've realized when spending time on the internet chatting about that. Other fun fact.. mentioning that the temperature is minus something seemed to have shocked some of them.

Don't know why some Canadians feel they have to compare to the U.S. so much, differences are quite apparent. They are a nice country that has its domestic affairs in well order (healthcare, economics, and such) and is also pleasant in international diplomacy.
