Canadian Corner

Do you drive on the other side of the road? Does it rain in Canada? You don’t have a pope do you? Yes, no, and we actually have a president, duh! That is what America has, so naturally the rest of the world has it too, right? By all means, no offense, and I apologize for my saying so, but you guys are exceeding your stereotypical reputation of being uneducated. Especially when concerning other countries, especially Canada and its culture. Mind you, Ben Oster, not only knew Canada has provinces, he could almost name them all. So props to Ben. But even you would be

disappointed to find some of the questions I have been asked so far. When the Newcomers Party came around, and freshman gladiators were required to say where they were from, I simply said “Canada.” Afterwards, someone came up to me and said I forgot to say my city and state, truly interested in which ‘state’ I live in. *Spoiler alert* Canada doesn’t have states.

On other news, a presidential debate took place recently, and even though my opinion on political matters means very little, I’ll give you my two cents anyway. Seeing who you’ve chosen to run your country, please contact me if you want to smuggle yourself across the border in my igloo, and I’ll see what I can do. Justin Trudeau has better hair than Trump. At this time you’re probably thinking, “When is she going to start talking about hockey.” Fear no more for the time has come. As you all know, Canada dominates at just about anything and everything (don’t argue with me on this one), and we do not fall short when it comes to hockey. In the headlines this past week we have proven this fact once again during the World Cup of Hockey, in which we came out victorious, by the way, *cough cough* kicking your bum in the process. Sorry, not sorry guys, better us than Russia though, right? You're welcome. Still, I hope everyone has a beautifully colourful October. Smiles and love to you from Maple Leaf Road, Moose Town, BC.
