You know your from the east coast of Canada
when your saying's start
with the words 'Lord Tunderin' Jesus...'
you know your from Canada
if your house has a ruuf on the top
and you sleep in a ruum...
you know your Canadian when you have
not only a car in your garage, but you
also have a sled and a four-wheeler....

40 SIGNS THAT YOU MAY BE CANADIAN:

1. You stand in "line-ups" at the movie, not lines.
2. You're not offended by the term, "Homo Milk"
3. You understand the phrase, "Could you please pass me a serviette,
I just spilled my poutine"

5. You drink pop, not soda.
6. You know what it means to be on pogey.
7. You know that a mickey and 2-4's mean "Party at the camp, eh!!"
8. You can drink legally while still a 'teen.
9. You talk about the weather with strangers and friends alike.
10. You don't know or care about the fuss with Cuba,
it's just a cheap place to travel with good cigars
and no Americans.
11. When there is a social problem, you turn to your government
to fix it instead of telling them to stay out of it.
12. You're not sure if the leader of your nation
has EVER had sex and don't want to know if he has!
13. You get milk in bags as well as cartons and plastic jugs.
14. Pike is a type of fish, not some part of a highway.
15. You drive on a highway, not a freeway.
16. You sit on a couch not a chesterfield - that is some small town in Quebec!
17. You know what a Robertson screwdriver is.
18. You have Canadian Tire money in your kitchen drawers.
19. You know that Thrills are something to chew and "taste like soap".
20. You know that Mounties "don't always look like that"
21. You dismiss all beers under 6% as "for children and the elderly".
22. You know that the Friendly Giant isn't a vegetable product line.
23. You know that Casey and Finnegan are not a Celtic musical group.
24. You participated in "Participaction".
25. You have an Inuit carving by your bedside with the rationale,
"What's good enough protection for the Prime Minister
is good enough for me".
26. You wonder why there isn't a 5 dollar coin yet.
27. Unlike any international assassin/terrorist/spy in the world,
you don't possess a Canadian passport.
28. You use a red pen on your non-Canadian textbooks and fill
in the missing 'u's from labor, honor, and color.
29. You know the French equivalents of "free", "prize"
and "no sugar added", thanks to your extensive education
in bilingual cereal packaging.
30. You are excited whenever an American television
show mentions Canada.
31. You make a mental note to talk about it at work the next day.
32. You can do all the hand actions to Sharon,
Lois and Bram's "Skin-a-ma-rinky-dinky-doo" opus.
33. You can eat more than one maple sugar
candy without feeling nauseous.
34. You were mad when "The Beachcombers" were taken off the air.
35. You know what a toque is.
36. You have some memento of Doug and Bob.
37. You admit Rich Little is Canadian and
you're glad Jerry Lewis is not.
38. You know Toronto is not a province.
39. You never miss "Coaches Corner".
40. Back bacon and Kraft Dinner are two of
your favourite food groups.
