Hey, I have this shirt!

Agreed, but as a young nation of immigrants, it kinda comes with the territory. As a Canadian who lives abroad, people have asked me to cook ‘Canadian food’ for a dinner party more than once… I don’t even know what that is.

Can confirm, she was featured in a program about Swiss naturalisation that I watched the other day. There were plenty of other candidates who were trying to integrate that were much less annoying than her, yet they still were having difficulty. It doesn’t surprise me one bit that they denied her.

Yup, can confirm. Also, if it’s past 6 pm, make sure to switch to ‘bonsoir’.

If it’s someone I know, I just say ‘salut’. It’s way more casual, and can also be used as goodbye to boot.

Fair enough, I only said that cause it was the case for me aha.

Not necessarily, could be a Bluetooth driver issue.

This might be the general ‘best practice’ today for plumbing, but even as recent as 1998 I wouldn’t count on it. It was technically not against code in Canada around 5 years ago as long as the piping was done in fire-rated materials. Also it’s pretty much impossible to not have at least some wiring in party walls.

I don’t know about that… In my family of Canadians there was always a little bit of anti-American sentiment growing up. Culturally, while close, there are definitely differences. They used to come up during salmon season and cheat the system by catching over the limit and canning it at night so the authorities couldn’t count their catch. I would never say that all Americans are bad people, but the ‘fuck you, I got mine’ attitude seems to be much more prevalent south of the border.
