You know you're Canadian...
| Dan-D from Canada, who blogs over at Grey Owl: This Great Argument, wrote a really funny post recently that has generated a lot of creativity and entertainment in the comments. Becoming An Honourary Canadian, and the comments that it generated, are a lot of fun, north of the 49th style. | ![]() |
