Is Canada as good as it gets?

[D_Tintagel_Demondong]

No, one country doesn't have to be the best. Asserting that one is is fucking stupid.

You are right. All countries are equal in every possible way. Why don't you move to Chad. Have fun.

I don't wonder why America is referred to as the Great Satan. I actually know why it is. Most people don't.

Please enlighten the rest of us poor schmucks who don't have an I.Q. of 190!

I also know where the majority of the Canadian population lives. Are you consciously being ignorant of the fact that there are other parts of your country that aren't southern Ontario?

Are you a fucking moron? Look at the goddam map. Canucks aren't stupid enough to live on glaciers. Don't get so upset when you lose an argument.

One more bad thing about Canada: it's clearly inhabited by complete morons.

Didn't bring it up before because nobody had yet demonstrated this to me.

I'd just like to point out, again, that the most inflammatory and derogatory things I've said in this thread so far are that Canada is cold and sparsely populated.

Cold is a subjective term. Referring to ice blocks is just ignorant hyperbole. Akin to saying that since you're from DC, you're typing your responses while waiting for your crack to cook up.

Have you been South?

If someone referred to my habitual crack use due to the fact that I was from the DC area, and I didn't already know that they were an idiot because of the helpful posts they had made in this thread proving as much, I would assume that they were joking, laugh, and either joke back or not comment.

 

[Drifterwood]

That's comment isn't it?

Ahhh, that's where I went wrong. When I initially responded to you, I assumed you weren't an idiot.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Durrr. Gee, you managed to fit all of that into one sentence. Only somone with an I.Q. of 190 could accomplish that! I worship you!

Ding Ding... your crack is ready.

Anyway, I've been to Vermont and their maple syrup just doesn't pass mustard.

Quebec, I'm told, is the place to go for syrup.

Ironically, us Canuck "morons" invented the long-distance communications that allow you to post such crap.

I go away for an hour, and this is what happens?

Man, you guys are bitchy.

*shrugs* The whole site has been bitchy lately.

That's an awfully general statement to make!


Drifterwood: Québec is the place to go for the maple syrup! Check it out during carnaval next year. Lots of touristy things to do.

Mmmh that means Rubi.

I figured it out. It's not that you forgot that the rest of your country exists... it's that you're confused and actually live in the US. Alright... guess that's more evidence that Americans are stupid. Some of them believe they live in Canada. great.



Just for the record, the "argument" that I'm "losing" so far goes as such:

1. Canada is cold

2. Canada is sparsely populated

keep up the great debate guys. fight the good fight.

I think I also mentioned that arguing any one country to be the best in the world isn't the smartest thing to do, and that asserting one country to be in all ways infallible is "absurd," but let's focus on those first two points. We don't want to give any ground on those two.

There is no question that the climate in Canada is going to be a deal-breaker for anyone who dislikes winter. I enjoy the full range of contrasts that make up the 4 seasons of the year.


Mercurialbliss - Toronto's winter is similar to Chicago's, but just slightly more moderate. (At least in the past decade.) Southern British Columbia (especially Victoria) is our only banana belt, where winter is brief to non-existent. The reality there is it rains buckets like Seattle and Portland.

NCBear - I primed tobacco when I was 16 just north of Lake Erie, near Delhi, Ontario. Our tobacco belt is in its demise now, but that's not because of climate. The growing season here is shorter than yours, but our summers are plenty warm enough for tobacco. There are micro climates thoughout southern Ontario that are ideal for vineyards and fruit orchards. The Niagara area produces wines of note in addition to the remarkable ice wines.

Toronto is at the same latitude as Bordeaux, France and Florence, Italy. Sadly we don't have the moderating effects of climate that prevailing winds offer southern Europe.

I blame Alaska.:biggrin1:

You fucking traitor. Take that back right now.

Incidentally.... my shit hole is entirely uninhabited and I wouldn't want to live there, either.

I'd be curious to hear about any lake effect. Makes things here unpredictable. The stuff I've witnessed over the years - leaving downtown when it's sunny and dry and driving away from the lake into a total whiteout - or vice versa.
