As far as when Canada gained it's independance from the UK, it was July 1, 1867 (and it was done with out a war).

Most Canucks I know toast with Canadian beer - Molson, Labatt . . . going back to an earlier post here, most Americans get shit canned drinking our beer
Why is it Canadian beer has a stronger alcoholic content than our southern neighbours? |

A few more things I've remembered:
The 401 highway running from Windsor to I'm not sure how far it goes...is one wicked highway!! Gotta be careful on that one...so many accidents and multi-vehicle ones at that!
And PLEASE the speed limit is in kilometers per hour NOT miles!!!
Don't try to drive at 100 mph!! It's 100 KPH roughly somewhere between 60-70 mph.
Two excellent comedy Television shows....Royal Canadian Air Farce and This Hour has 22 minutes!! Excellent shows...and gives us Yanks a peek into how we're perceived by our neighbors to the North. I know there must be more, but those are two that I'm most familiar with.
I love Red Rose brand tea and I can't find it here in Missouri!! Wahhhhh!!!!
Curling clubs are as common in the parts of Ontario that I've been in as bowling alleys are here in the States.
You don't wipe your mouth with a napkin, you use a serviette (sp?).
And I love the LaBatts commercials!! Especially the Bear.....

Is you cash-conversation any better, so you can calculate your bail? 
Try 62.1371 Miles/hour,….. or ABOUT 5/8,….. or ROUGHLY ˝ plus another 10%.
70 Miles/hour would be 112.654 Kilometers/hour and over the 10% leeway that even Sharni’s sweetest Mounty would allow.
LMFAO- soory SS,  just couldn’t resist.

Well I do declare SS......we use "cloth" napkins when we are out dining and having company and paper serviettes for any other old time.......don't tell a soul but paper towels worked well with my kids!
AND Red Rose Tea is the best and "sold only in Canada?" Pity!!!
I would be more than happy to send you off a box if you so desire SS..... |

I used to be able to get it in Detroit in all major grocery stores. Love the litle statues that come in the boxes...
Thanks so much for the offer, but will try to pick some up when I'm home in a few weeks. |
