America Vs. Canada- Stop It!
Rating:
Quality: (Quality: Unrated)
Hi, I am a Canadian. I have been reading some of these forwards for a little bit of reasearch.
I strongly suggest to both of our countries: this has to stop. We are allies, remember? we have always helped eachother out. We are lucky to even be living here freely in North America.
I happen to have relatives in the U.S., and they are so nice. I almost wish I could live with them. By looking at these forwards, I can't believe how hateful these people can be towards either country. True, I have my problems with both Canada AND the U.S.A. but we can set aside our differences anyways.
It is very LOW of all of you making fun of eachother. What will you gain by insulting one another? I mean, come on- making fun of who's beer tastes better? That's so stupid. Canadian beer is stronger, but the only reason why American beer is not as strong tasting is because a long way back they decided to not make it so strong so that they ladies of the country could enjoy it too.
By the way, Canada is NOT full of hockey-crazed pot smoking drunks. We do not live in igloos, either. My friend's mom once went to the U.S. for a vacation to visit her cousins, and some americans asked her if there was a "border of ice" dividing Canada and America, and NO there is NOT. North America does not abruptly turn into an ice cap once you cross the border. The most snow that there's ever been where I live is about two inches.
And about the "national animal" scenario, I have NEVER seen a beaver here in Canada, and I agree that it's pretty stupid. But one has to respect the descisions of one's country. The Beaver means something to Canada, and the eagle meens something to america, so there you go. I think that both countries have great flags. What is the point of making fun of someone's flag? (Totally pointless...)
You don't know how much America and Canada are alike. Maybe that's why there is all this hate in these forwards. There is clearly so much competing going on here.
-We are BOTH multicultural countries
-Canada is not made up of only English speeking and French speaking. the only part of Canada that is french is Quebec.(a province)
-America has a President, Canada has a Prime Minister. (I read in one of these forwards of an american insulting Canada, saying that they are not as religious so they don't have a prime minister. Well, sorry to say, but a Prime Minister is the equivelant of a President. - nothing to do with a church minister)
-we both have good people and bad.
-we are both beautiful countries and are so lucky to have freedom and rights.
-we both, for some reason compete so much Why does one always have to be better than the other?
-Oh yeah... I almost forgot: I have never once heard a Canadian say: "aboot" and rarely hear anyone say "eh".
Do you see how much we are alike? Why would someone make fun of a country for "not having as many hott guys/girls"? that's so stupid. People are so desperate to prove that one is better than the other. What have you accomplished by sending hatefull forwards? Nothing. You have just hurt eachother and yourself. Why can't you just accept eachother?
That's all I have to say, and I hope you take my words into consideration. By the way,I'm only 13 years old, and I know what you guys are doing is wrong.
