10 Reasons to Know You're a REAL Dumb Canadian (PLEASE READ)
Rating:
Quality: (Quality: Unrated)
First off, I would like to make something very clear. I just read the chain letter submitted by "proud original canadian". It was called "10 reasons to know your a REAL dumb american". Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not writing this to get revenge, but simply to clear something really important up. Basically, this letter is addressed directly at the person who wrote the chain letter ("proud original canadian"). So, please do not take any of this following information personally or offensively.
Ok. Below is the chain letter written by "proud original candadian". You'll see that there are many controversial and arguable topics and opinions in it, and I'm sure many, just as myself, were affected and insulted by these remarks. By the way, I'm an American - and PROUD OF IT. Please read on after the chain letter (written by "proud original canadian"), because I have several things to add in response to his/her's comments. Thanks.

I just wanna add a little word before i start. This list could be alot longer because americans are actually the dumbest people i have ever met. I go to the states alot for soccer and they talk like they've never been taught how to speak english! And just one thing to all you americans... I WOULDNT BE SO PROUD IF I WERE YOU!
YEAH CANADA!!! Oh yeah, and one more thing WE KILLED YOU GUYS IN OLYMPIC HOCKEY! WOMENS AND MENS!!!
REASONS:
10)You pronounce your O's as A's.
example: instead of hockey, you say hackey
(and yes, even though you guys cheated with that ref., we still beat you in womens hockey)
9) More than half of your population is overwieght because your standards on food is so low.
8) Your population is so high (just like your egos) because of single 14 year old teenage mothers.
7) You think Canadians are people who hunt moose and live in igloos AND that we are all mounties.
6) You think America is a synonym for earth.
5) You think that the sport "curling" consists of a curling iron and alot of hair.
4) You think canada has a President.
3) When you think that bombing another country makes you so brave, and that you are the leading cause that any wars were won.
2) You are proud to have Bush as a President.
1) You dont understand half of this list.

NOW....WHAT DID YOU GUYS THINK OF THAT? I found it pretty offensive and really rude. Now, if "proud original candian" is by any chance reading this chain letter, please read my comments to you. My comments are numbered, so my first comment is in response to the Canadian's first reason, my second comment is in response to the Canadian's second reason, etc., etc.
10. YOU PRONOUNCE YOUR O'S AS A'S. That's called stereotyping. Truthfully, it all depends on where you were in the US. If you were in the south, there might have been a different accent. Otherwise, maybe people were kidding around.
9. MORE THAN HALF OF YOUR POPULATION IS OVERWEIGHT BECAUSE YOUR STANDARD ON FOOD IS SO LOW. Um...since when was there a standard on food? "Standards" might vary between families and households. Are you trying to say that there are no fat Canadians?
8. YOUR POPULATION IS SO HIGH (JUST LIKE YOUR EGOS) BECAUSE OF SINGLE 14 YEAR OLD TEENAGE MOTHERS. That's completely not true. Sure, they do make up a portion of our country's population, but they definitely don't cause the fact that the population is high. There are many immigrants and people from other countries that come to live in our country. Here's another example of stupid stereotyping.
7. YOU THINK CANADIANS ARE PEOPLE WHO HUNT MOOSE AND LIVE IN IGLOOS AND THAT WE ARE ALL MOUNTIES. That's also another example of stereotyping. The United States is UNITED...but we don't all think and say the exact same thing. Some people may think that, but I don't. I have a friend in Canada, and she doesn't have an igloo or hunts moose. Chill, ok?
6.YOU THINK AMERICA IS A SYNONYM FOR EARTH. Um...nope. There may be some self-centered people, but we all don't believe that. We are all very proud to be citizens of this country, but we are perfectly aware of the countries and people around the world.
5. YOU THINK THE SPORT "CURLING" CONSISTS OF A CURLING IRON AND ALOT OF HAIR. Well, I admit that I didn't really know what the sport was until very recently, but when I did find out about it, curling irons and hair weren't the first thing that came to my mind (in fact, they didn't even come to my mind).
4. YOU THINK CANADA HAS A PRESIDENT. No, maybe some people do, but not all.
3. WHEN YOU THINK THAT BOMBING ANOTHER COUNTRY IS BRAVE, AND THAT YOU ARE THE LEADING CAUSE THAT ANY WARS WERE WON. What's that supposed to mean? Wars are caused by people like you (the "proud original canadian") - stereotypists. Also, terrorists and rascists are big causes of war.
2. YOU ARE PROUD TO HAVE BUSH AS A PRESIDENT. Yes, in fact, we are. He's a strong, powerful president that has led our country in the fight against terrorism.
1. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HALF OF THIS LIST. Well, I understood it, you idiot. I understood it all (if I didn't, I wouldn't be responding to your stupid list).
Let me tell you, that I'm not writing another 10 Reasons List about Canadians, because I'm not an idiot. I don't feel like I have to get revenge, and I don't feel like I have to lower myself down to the "proud original canadian". I'm not an idiot. If I was to make a list, I wouldn't make one about all Canadians, because that would be stereotyping. Not all Canadians are the same. Not all Americans are the same. You know what I think? The "proud original canadian" is jealous. Maybe I'm wrong. But to show someone (no...let me correct myself...a whole country) so much hatred is just plain stupid. You can't judge a whole country, race, or religion based on one experience or person. You have to get to know someone better before judging them. I'm proud to be an American!
Oh, by the way, have you noticed "proud original canadian"'s spelling and grammar mistakes? Does he/she know that countries are capitalized. The idiot doesn't even capitalize his/her own country's name. Oh yeah....that just shows great pride for one's country. NOT.
