Best thing Canada's ever done?


Maybe Poutine?

reply

I would have to agree. Poutine is a rare find here in Texas.

TPB is the second best thing.





If making guns illegal will keep them off the streets, then we should make drugs illegal too.

reply

Canadian ham, or bacon depending on what you call it.

reply

basketball, hockey, heck even insulin was a good one lol

reply

None of those beat Poutine.

reply

everything except for sheeps heads, monkey brains, animal testicles, foods with poop in them, black pudding, and caviar are better than poutine.

reply

The only person who could possibly say that is someone who has never had Poutine and has no idea what it is.

the denial is strong with this one.

Let's start with an easy one. How are brussels sprouts better than poutine?

Let's go a little further. How is a turkey sandwich better than poutine?

Let's get even harder, and relate it to the item itself. How are plain french fries better than poutine?

What could you possibly be talking about if you know what poutine is?

reply

people have different tastes.... is that a problem for you?

you people are creepy, seriously... canadian, right?

reply

Nope, not a problem for me, just responding to the fact that it seemed like you did - you seem pretty anti-the whole thing.

Also, nope, not Canadian. Just a dude who loves poutine. I have to admit, it's just tough to understand, the stuff is pretty great - I think you'd not find many that would disagree.

Being serious about it, though (and I'm not judging), may I ask what part you don't like... fries, cheese, or gravy?

reply

Seriously.

I can understand that it may be something that he does not like. Barely.

But for it to be almost the worst dish on Earth is hard to fathom. I think it was just hyperbole on the poster's part.

No possible objective measure could place Poutine towards the bottom of the list in taste.

it's called subjective opinion. get with it =]

reply

Not a big fan of poutine myself, Battlestar Galactica, TPB and Kids in the Hall are up there for the best canadian exports for sure.

There you are welcome.

That plane is the best thing Canada ever accomplished. Anyone who says otherwise are liars and any Canadian I do mean ANY says otherwise are not true Canadians.

reply

It's hard to see what's not to like about it. I mean, french fries, cheese and gravy. Hard to object to that combo, unless you happen to dislike one or more of those three in isolation. Kind of like saying "pizza sucks" because you don't like tomato sauce.

As far as televised Canadian comedies go, I would rank it as follows:

1) The Newsroom (1996) -- best comedy I have ever seen, Canadian or not.
2) Trailer Park Boys

reply

Whats the best thing Canada's ever done? Probably winning the war of 1812..... yeah i went there!

reply

I already told you, the best thing Canada aka MY COUNTRY has ever accomplished was the

AVRO ARROW

That was the height of our triumph. A aircraft that was the best in the world, far ahead of it's time, sadly our Government was run by a bunch of farmers who didn't know what they had, cancelled it and cut the 6 prototypes into pieces.

reply

cut the 6 prototypes into pieces

Not only that, but they destroyed the forms, machine tools, and even the plans! WTF??

IMO they were ordered to do that by creepy American Military Industrial Complex spooks.

reply

Arctic Air, Due South, An American in Canada, and of course, Red Green are my favorites.

Rush. The correct answer is Rush.

Not only the greatest band that ever came out of Canada, but probably one of the five greatest bands of all time.

reply

Pifff! You ignore the mighty Justin Beebler!

reply

If Bieber was yours (which, let's face it, he pretty much is now), wouldn't YOU ignore him?

Canada's greatest exports:

Bret Hart and Owen Hart
Rush
Trailer Park Boys
Filming locations for thousands of great movies and TV shows
Too many good actors to even begin listing (especially bit players)

I've always had a lot of love for Canada.

The only thing I don't like is what I've heard about cops that dump drunks miles from civilization that freeze to death trying to make it back into town. Not cool.
