I have never got electronics from canada before, and I was wonder if a canadian computer would work in the united states? -Will it work out of the box, or would I never an adapter of some sort?
it's just funny how little Americans know about us Canadians
Most of my experience with Canadians is canoing in Quetico Park/BWCA. I know some of you have a weird accent. And your restroom facilities out there in the woods is non-existent. By the way, there are no electrical devices to hook up my computer while canoing whether it is in the US or Canada, so I leave it at home.

Thats a nice blanket statement. Maybe if you interview 200 millions Americans then maybe you could make a comment like that and why is it so important that Americans Know about Canadians or vise versa? Sounds like a flame bait that worked, LOL

Uh, I know that Canadians are not allowed to protect themselves from scumbags..........IE.......own a handgun!
I know that since the late 60's to early 70's , Canada has harboured Vietnam War Traitors and Draft Dodgers........
I know that Gov't sponsored Healthcare is a Crock!

I also know America has the highest murder rate as a result of firearms in relation to its population in the world. America has 10 times the population of Canada, and Canada has 60 gun deaths per year. Thereoretically, America should have 600 gun deaths a year then...but it has 11,000...Do you see a connection between this and the gun laws?

Healthcare just paid almost $2000 of my medical bills, much less than I pay per year for my healthcare.

No need to, they did a survey on the news, and found that American's knew more about their own country than Canadian's, but much less about other countries than Canadian's did. (don't remember too many specifics, this was a few years ago).

Really???? You guys have this....I didn't think this was possible!!!! Where I go camping, they have that area covered.
Anyways, I found something amusing, said something that made me sound like an asshole, and then apologized...most people trying to start a flame war don't apologize for what they said
wait and see what government sponsored health care does here or ask someone in ca. too bad some of our illegals dont go on up to canada and do some of the work theyve done here on the health system
