The australians had a similar ad campaign after molson did the I AM CANADIAN one and it was as follows:
| quote: |
G'day.. uh, I don't have a kangaroo for a pet I don't
wrestle with crocodiles, and I don't wear a cork hat.
I'd fight wars, but never start wars. I would rather
like peace. I can wear my country's flag with pride.
I am a rock. I am the ocean. I am the island continent.
My brothers are the Smit's, the Wilson's, The Santarilli's,
The Vikosky's, The Wong's and the Jagamaroe's. I play
football, without a helmet. I LIKE betroot on my hamburger.
I ride in the FRONTSEAT of a taxi. I belive this is
a PRAWN not a SHRIMP. I belive the world is round and
DOWN UNDER is ON TOP. I belive Australia is the best
address on earth, and Australians, brew the BEST BEER
on EARTH. Cheers.

considering we're the only board who has a stoner's only thread, I think we can smoke our weed with the best of them.

Oh, and generally speaking, Vancouver people don't like Toronto people. I lived in Van for 3 months and all the cool people I met were from Toronto, and the Van people were rude assholes.

LOL! I found the opposite. People turned up their nose when they found out I was from Toronto but honestly what made them nice again was this simple line:
"yeah but i'm not like most toronto people"
"ahh ok cool"

We have a lot more wogs and bogans than you could ever imagine 
...doin doughies down at the local B&S....
Lots of wogs with cars that they consider to be FULLY SICK, MATE, but in actual fact are pieces of shit. People put Type-R badges on their Civics like wogs put Turbo badges on their non-turbo VLs. Blu-tac'd, of course.

Canada is aboot:
- Hockey (which no other country is interested in)
- Curling (you don't even wanna know)
- Beer (which actually sucks here)
- Taxes (guess where 70% of your cash is going, or about 30% if you're just visiting)
- Gay marriage (first on the bandwagon, and proud of it!)
- Very cold weather
- Anti-Americanism (if you hate Dubya, you'll feel right at home here)
- Obscene nationalism (look for flags sewn on backpacks and such - we're proud of our culture, whatever it is...)
- Good weed (but only on the west coast)
- Bacon (an excellent accompaniment to good weed)
- Poutine ("I can already feel my arteries clogging!")
Canada is NOT aboot:
- Military (our army could put Prague and Zaire to shame)
- Health care (you get a letter telling you to check back in 6 months - but you get it for FREE!)
- Moose (the only Moose I ever saw were paper mach� statues scattered across the city)
- Inventions (no, we did not invent basketball, or lacrosse, or the zipper, or velcro, or the telephone)
- Music (Avril Lavigne, Alanis Morisette, Celine Dion, Nickelback, w00t!!)
Toronto is aboot:
- Traffic jams and dangerous driving
- Complaining
- Bragging
- Multiculturalism (read: thousands of people who don't speak a word of English)
- Snooty garbagemen
- Montreal-bashing
- Vancouver-bashing
- Everyone-else-bashing
Enjoy your stay!

Canada is about asking foreigners what they think about our country and asking them what they have heard about us. I think a lot of us are obsessed with telling people we are from Canada because we think we are so great because we are not American.

^^^^^
You forget to mention that Canada revolves around Toronto...
not to mention the rest of the universe...
