In a Canadian mall: Your hardpressed to find the security guard if your life depended on it.

 

In an American mall: ten men in black suits, 4 security guards, and two cops close-off the area in front of a pizza shop because someone ripped the leaf of one of plants.

Well they shouldn`t grow such "plants" anyway!

canadians are just a bit more liberal

I don't know about how Canadians feel when they're called Americans, but if someone calls me European I'm going to make him eat a 2x4 that has several nails on it. >:/

yes, we could take over half the globe and nobody would notice.

Canadiands don't lock their doors.

Americans do.

 

and more to the point:

Canadians don't feel that they NEED to lock their doors.

Americans do.

 

and even further to my hidden point:

Canada = not much fear.

America = way, way too much fear.

The best (well, funniest) illustration of the American fear was that thing by Matt Stone and Trey Parker in Bowling for Columbine.

Americans: Spell words differently, but still call it "English".

Brits: Pronounce their words differently, but still call it "English".

 

Those two are mutually exclusive, unless you're referring to a third party like the Zimbabweans.

hey, doesnt canada have a queen? in the us, we have about 2 million of those weirdos.

Yes in fact we do have a queen, Elizabeth the second, and we also live in igloos and ride dog sleds all day.

americans are multi cultured,multi racial and yet call themselves all american.

canadians all look alike,and call themselves aunt,uncle,brother,sister.
