As I get ready to head down to the States (yup... I went with the idea that maybe it was best not to sleep for 3 hours and just stay up all night... maybe not such a good one in hindsight!!)I thought that y'all (I'm even getting ready to speak American!!) might enjoy this. Have a lovely long weekend everyone!!

Only in Canada:

1. Only in Canada... can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance
2. Only in Canada... are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink
3. Only in Canada... do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
4. Only in Canada... do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a diet coke
5. Only in Canada... do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters
6. Only in Canada... Do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage
7. Only in Canada... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place
8. Only in Canada... do we buy hot dogs in packages of 12 and buns in packages of 8
9. Only in Canada... do we use the politics to describe the process so well: 'poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'
10. Only in Canada... do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering
