Oh, Canada!

Being Canadian is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV

Oh and Only in Canada...

Can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.
Do supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to the back of the shop to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in Canada...

Do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a DIET coke.
Do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters.
Do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars on the drive and lock our junky and cheap lawn mower in the garage.

Only in Canada...

Do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place.
Are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink.

Speaking of parking spaces near the front of buildings......Why are there parking space infront of Home Depot for Pregnant or expecting women? Why? It is not that you would ever see a pregnant or expected mother @ this store. Whenever I go to Home Depot, these parking spaces are ALWAYS vacant. Why not free up these parking spaces for those 'MEN' that are trying to finish off a task on the honey-do-list......the people that need the spaces.
