dacheedah Posted July 16, 2013 #26 Posted July 16, 2013 + Neil Young... Most Canadians don't like to mention Justin Bieber. The Americans can adopt him if they can stand him ! He has a blackhawk bounty on his head, disrespectful lil sh&%#!
friesman Posted July 16, 2013 Author #27 Posted July 16, 2013 That's funny because the other night on a re-run of Big Bang Theory, Sheldon mentioned something about the US being invaded by Canada. Closer to the truth than he knew. :rotf: That's what started this whole train of thought.... my fav show... Brian
kevin-vic-b.c. Posted July 16, 2013 #28 Posted July 16, 2013 At this sad time may I ad Corry Monteith of the TV series Glee who died over the weekend at 31 yrs of age...... grew up in the Greater Victoria area.
XV1100SE Posted July 16, 2013 #29 Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Here are a few more Canadians who have made it big : Sarah Polley Dan Aykroyd Adam Beach Kim Cattrall (for her, you should be willing to keep the Bieb's) Kim Coates Nina Dobrev Jessalyn Gilsig Tom Green (don't know how he got left off the list !) Jill Hennessy Rachelle Lefevre Evangeline Lilly Mathew Perry Russell Peters Ryan Reynolds Alan Thicke Michael Buble Celine Dion Nelly Furtado Diana Krall Avril Lavigne Alanis Morissette Mary Pickford (yes, "America's sweetheart" was a Canuck) Shannon Tweed (1982 Playmate of the Year) Monty Hall Paul Shaffer Burton Cummings James Doohan (yes, Scotty on Star Trek was a Canadian) Margot Kidder (Superman's girl) Norman Jewison Glenn Gould "The Rock" Carrie Anne Moss (The Matrix.... and Keannu Reeves lived in Canada but born in Lebanon) I better stop now.... CSIS (Canadian Security) will be at my door for informing Americans about how many Canadians have infiltrated the U.S.A ! Edited July 16, 2013 by XV1100SE
Huggy Posted July 16, 2013 #30 Posted July 16, 2013 My brother's father in-law work for CSIS! Come to think of it MY brother works for the government!! :whistling:I'll be passing on names and collecting a reward shortly!!!!! Then we will continue with our infiltration into the US entrainment industry. Then its just a short leap to a full government takeover!!!
Yammer Dan Posted July 16, 2013 #31 Posted July 16, 2013 Didn't claim Obama. We don't know where he is from. You can have him....
Condor Posted July 16, 2013 #32 Posted July 16, 2013 Every time I see an actractive young lady on TV she always seems to be Canadian. There must be something in the water......
Brake Pad Posted July 16, 2013 #33 Posted July 16, 2013 I love riding in Canada, I just hate the border crossing Idiots:doh:
Huggy Posted July 16, 2013 #34 Posted July 16, 2013 Didn't claim Obama. We don't know where he is from. You can have him.... AHhhhhh.......No thanks, his sister lives in the Burlington, Ontario area though. Sooooooo maybe he is Canadian! That would explain Obomacare.
Bubber Posted July 16, 2013 #35 Posted July 16, 2013 Then we will continue with our infiltration into the US entrainment industry. Then its just a short leap to a full government takeover!!! Good luck maybe you can get it to work.... our elected official sure the heck don't, work that is. No politics here Boss just a statement of facts. Yes I know ...go lay down by my bowl and shut the %$@# up.
Stache Posted July 16, 2013 #36 Posted July 16, 2013 Hmmm. USA: 2013 - 1776 = 237 yrs CAN: 2013 - 1867 = 146 yrs Canada's finest province did not join Confederation until 1949. CAN: 2013 - 1949 = 64 yrs Depending on how you count, then, Canada had either 91 yrs (237 - 146) or 173 yrs (237 - 64) example of how to be a modern democratic state even before Canada was founded. I will leave the question of whether that is a good example (or not) and whether Canada should follow that example (or not) to persons wiser than me to decide.
VentureFar Posted July 16, 2013 #37 Posted July 16, 2013 It wasn't intended as either a political OR a religious post...It was intended as a informational and interesting one... I hope it doesn't turn into one. Hmm didn't know anything in my original post was remotely religious......... Brian I found the connection: It was your "hidden" agenda that has now been exposed So obvious, staring us in the face all the time..... I was having a thought today, (yes, I know that it's a dangerous thing!) about how many Canadians are in the US working in the entertainment industry. I think its time to let you Americans know that we Canucks are on a stealth program to take over the States. I had no idea that there was this many Canadians working in the US in high profile jobs, and I am sure there is more that I havnt thought about in the 10 minutes it took to do up this list. Not even putting my usual signature on this post -too silly to sign.
saddlebum Posted July 16, 2013 #38 Posted July 16, 2013 Maybe we should enact a law like Canada has, If there's an American that can do the job, then No Canadians can come here and take the work. Since there's a lot of unemployed actors we should deport them all. I believe the Canadian law is - If there is a visible minority person who can do the job then no Canadian can work.
Black Owl Posted July 16, 2013 #39 Posted July 16, 2013 Bieber is just payback for the 60's. Now let's see how many can remember what I'm talking about....
Snaggletooth Posted July 16, 2013 #40 Posted July 16, 2013 Bieber is just payback for the 60's. Now let's see how many can remember what I'm talking about.... Oh......... great. You're still upset about how those long haired, tree hugging, pot smoking, sign waving hippie that wandered across the border. Or was it something else?
dacheedah Posted July 17, 2013 #41 Posted July 17, 2013 and here I thought Canada was a suburb of Detroit, ough my bad
friesman Posted July 17, 2013 Author #42 Posted July 17, 2013 Oh......... great. You're still upset about how those long haired, tree hugging, pot smoking, sign waving hippie that wandered across the border. Or was it something else? He wasn't upset about it, he was one.....lol!
Bubber Posted July 17, 2013 #43 Posted July 17, 2013 Bieber is just payback for the 60's. Now let's see how many can remember what I'm talking about.... That's when Black Owl came here, wait that's a two-fer. Boy did we get screwed on that deal.:rotf:
XV1100SE Posted July 17, 2013 #44 Posted July 17, 2013 Bieber is just payback for the 60's We aren't going to start talking about the Ahvro Arrow are we? Best fighter jet to fly in the 60's.
friesman Posted July 17, 2013 Author #45 Posted July 17, 2013 Every time I see an actractive young lady on TV she always seems to be Canadian. There must be something in the water...... Nope,....its the REAL beer.....:rotfl:
ragtop69gs Posted July 17, 2013 #46 Posted July 17, 2013 and here I thought Canada was a suburb of Detroit, ough my bad We love our southern neighbors
Marcarl Posted July 17, 2013 #47 Posted July 17, 2013 No wonder the border guards are so particular when we come across the border,, they always want to know how long we are going to stay, and where we are going. I've never told them that I'm headed for Washington, and never told them that I'm staying for long.
Black Owl Posted July 17, 2013 #48 Posted July 17, 2013 That's when Black Owl came here, wait that's a two-fer. Boy did we get screwed on that deal.:rotf: :stirthepot: Yah always get more from Canada then you ask for. Beer, sex, whatever. That's just the way they are up there......
Huggy Posted July 17, 2013 #49 Posted July 17, 2013 I believe the Canadian law is - If there is a visible minority person who can do the job then no Canadian can work. DONT EVEN GO THERE!!!!!! I got turned down for jobs in Toronto years ago because I'm WHITE ANGLO-SAXON AND A CANADIAN CITIZEN by birth. The company was afraid it would get sued by the minority rights groups if they hired me. And I'm certain it had nothing to do with the fact that I was still wearing my filthy combats and smoking a joint.
Marcarl Posted July 17, 2013 #50 Posted July 17, 2013 :stirthepot: Yah always get more from Canada then you ask for. Beer, sex, whatever. That's just the way they are up there...... Yep,, and I've heard that in some cases, mind you only in SOME cases the Americans had to turn down our offer of a certain product because the size was too large for our southern neighbors. We did send them a medium but it seems even that was too large to fit proper.
