Damn, if I could only get Canuckabroad t-shirts on the front page of CNN! Smile

But seriously, I'm not surprised..Kind of thought someone would already be doing something like that?

It's almost flattering in a sad way.

I think its silly. Can you imagine a family of American tourists hiding in the corner of some transatlantic flight feverishly whispering Canadian trivia questions to eachother so that they aren't ambushed by Bush-hating Europeans as soon as they get off the plane? Its crazy. I can just picture them: All wearing the white Go Canada T-shirts like a uniform, quietly memorizing Oh! Canada and obliterating the French section - While little Billy laughs at how little Sarah says Eh?.

It makes my brain hurt when I think of how some people are so idiotic.

I, for one, would suggest the inclusion of the following tip: If anyone asks you about Canadian Art, the answer is the Group of Seven.

By the way, I would love to have that immigration job where they get to grill people who claim to be Canadian before they get to board a flight.

they can't claim to be Canadian to an immigration officer, that would require a Candian passport.

So do us real Canadians now need a t-shir that says "Really, I am Canadian! Wanna see my beaver?"

Incidentally, people with fake passports can claim to be Canadian. That's why these Canadian immigration quiz master positions exist.

I read about it in Macleans, so it must be true. *S*
