They fit in.

They arrogantly think they speak and represent Canada when in actuality - the rest of the country hates and loathes them the same way you guys despise New York, Massivetwoshits and California.<br /><br />There is a reckoning coming up here too… but you guys will probably have yours first.

You may have a parka on, but sandals (with or without socks, depending on how hardcore you are) and cargo shorts are pretty much a grouchy old fart dress code down here, winter or summer.Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-90944144658619376172021-10-13T12:48:01.515-04:002021-10-13T12:48:01.515-04:00Glen, trust me, Florida is fine because there'...Glen, trust me, Florida is fine because there's this invention by Saint Willis of Carrier called air conditioning. <br /><br />I am a fat, pasty white northern Germanic type. I hate the heat. But I hate snow and ice worse. It's worth it.<br /><br />As to how 'nice' Canadians are, anyone in Florida can tell you there are nice Canadians. Those are the ones who, while in Florida, don't act all superior as to how their country is better than the US. If it's so much better, why are you all slumming?<br /><br />There are actually really nice Canucks. Really. They tend to be country Canadians. It's the arseholes from the cities, of course, that give most others the bad names.Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-14297478319252273512021-10-13T08:23:08.897-04:002021-10-13T08:23:08.897-04:00Guys, I am wondering why I stay here.

I sublimate at temps over 25C and turn from a solid directly into a rude smelly gas. Montana though, has possibilities…Glen Filthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256741311142364722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-11721156412321201282021-10-13T07:30:57.017-04:002021-10-13T07:30:57.017-04:00Richard - good point - I would like to see the num...Richard - good point - I would like to see the numbers on that and I have been aware of that for years. Just like the Canadians who shop here in the US because their "free" healthcare costs them more in taxes. libertymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987591250148492879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-32244539418680000792021-10-13T07:18:33.873-04:002021-10-13T07:18:33.873-04:00Probably worth mentioning all the Canadians, inclu...Probably worth mentioning all the Canadians, including political figures, who come down here for health care. I haven't heard what they are doing with the border closed for months. Just as a guess, perhaps the connected are getting some kind of exemption while normal people wait for the Canadian system to get around to them or die whichever comes first.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13416410052064018322noreply@blogger.com
