I agree ScottJ... And you're right Gabriel, Canadians are nice people, I don't know why we give them so much trouble.

I'm hispanic, I've lived in Toronto all of my life. My parents came from Guatemala which are called chapines. Canadians don't mind being called Canuks. But caker is a bad, just like saying white trash. The US and Canada are great friend but always like to bug one another. Canadians always talk about how rude and self centered American are. An american believe that most Canadians are skimos, live in igloos. Thats not the case at all, canada is a 1st world nation extremly rich and modern...I've never seen an igloo and don't say about aboot or eh all the time!. And one last thing...if your from Toronto you have to say it Torono as all Torontonias say it this way.
