Canadian, Please - hee! love it. Also damn song is stuck in my head now. :)

and then some arse made racist comments about the guy in that vid and this the fabulous response: he'll never be a real canadian.

And of interest to no one, but fits with this er rather patriotic theme which sort of came out of nowhere, I found this this morning and I teared up watching it: CFL This is Our League I ♥ the Canadian Football League. I try to never miss a game.

lallala - carry on.

Oh no, I didn't mean to imply that you were being racist. I thought your post was simply, "I enjoy this about my country".

I was referring to your mentioning, "and then some arse made racist comments about the guy in that vid" That always annoys me. I was raised to believe, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." Not that I never voice a frustration, just I try to do it politely when I do.

I'm fine with my country, I'm happy to live here but I can accept that it's imperfect and other countries are better in some ways and mine is better in others.

*hugs*

awesome. just making sure! :D

yeah, the remark was stupid - implying that a non-white person was not a good representative of a country that is incredibly multi-cultural. *eyerolls*
