You know you're from Canada when...
<UL TYPE=SQUARE>
Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.
The local paper covers national and international headlines on 2 pages, but requires 6 pages for hockey.
Whenever you hear the word "car", you have to stop yourself from involuntarity reaching back for a hockey net.
The mosquitoes have landing lights.
You know what a Robertson screwdriver is.
Cold is relative.
You notice the missing "u"s in labor, honor, color.
Pike is a fish, not a freeway.
You have no idea what is is about "back bacon" that makes Americans think its' Canadian
You measure in litres, kilograms & kilometers, except when you use feet, pounds and gallons.
Donut shops are a lifestyle
You have at least three friends named Gordon
You paricipate in "Participaction"
You know the french equivalent of "free", "prize" and "no sugar" thanks to your extensive eduation in bilingual cereal packaging http://www.nonrev.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
And finally a question for Canadians
Since Thanksgiving (Canada) is in October, does that mean you have an extra month for Christmas shopping? http://www.nonrev.net/infopop/emotic...on_biggrin.gif http://www.nonrev.net/infopop/emotic...on_biggrin.gif[/list]

Well done, you must have connections...
I was laughing so hard about the cereal boxes because it's true, many Canadians know about as much French as what is displayed on cereal boxes. My husband thinks he is bilingual because he can ask for 'flacons de maize' for breakfast.
And, no extra month for Christmas shopping, but enough time to get over being stuffed with turkey at Thanksgiving to look forward to another feast at Christmas!
