Magistr8 0 #1 April 4, 2002 This thread was concieved just after I saw the last Canadian beer commercial. The americians are bugging the candian sayig all the typical things " how aboot another beer" or It's pretty cold in here eh. Then ( the punch line ) they ask him where his pet beaver is. He pulls it out and it attacks you americians. And might I add that in the bloopers for that commercial the beaver drank a 12 of bud and had a slight buzz.What are your favorite beer commercialsWho ever said comming down from a high was bad obviously never tried this.Peter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrumpySmurf 0 #2 April 4, 2002 This one:" I'm not a lumberjack or a fur trader. I don't live in an igloo, eat blubber or own a dogsled. I don't know Jimmy, Suzie or Sally from Canada, although I'm certain they're very nice. I have a prime minister, not a president. I speak English and French, not American. And I pronounce it 'about,' not 'a-boot.' I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peacekeeping, not policing; diversity, not assimilation. And that the beaver is a proud and noble animal. A tuque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch. And it's pronounced zed. OK? Not zee. Zed. Canada is the second-largest land mass, the first nation of hockey and the best part of North America.
