My wife is from Canada, Markham, ONT. We love to go and visit. Nothing like Shopsy's deli in Downtown Toronto, it's awesome especially before a night at Hockey.

Gotta disagree with you on that, Although I really love hockey, I must say College football has got to be the best in my IMHO, especially the SEC conference

You're going to have to cross some of those off your list. Tim Horton's are in the US now, US currency is now colored although not as brightly and the 1 dollar US coin has been around for some time. I'll let you have the rest.

I'm a dual citizen so I have the best of both worlds.

Tim Horton's in the States? Not in the State of Washington.

Not in Washingston state, but they have stores in the following states.

CT, KY, MA, ME, MI, NY, OH, PA, RI and WV.

All on the east coast...I wonder when they will get down to Texas.

Q: Things Canadians have but Americans don't?

A: Small Penises.

Seriously, I've been working up to post that, and a few beers put me over the top. I do like Canadians, and especially those on this board, so don't take that as anything more than a gentle ribbing

The one thing that Canada has that the U.S. does not is a strong dollar.

Being the owners of a store in Northern Michigan I say; "Come on Down". Spend your money here! We love you no bull! Stick around until your money is gone.

(Then Go Home)

I love Leonard Cohen. His music is so dark that you feel like putting a gun to your head when he's done. I would love to see him in concert.

Awesome performer.
