FACT: Canada is directly above (to the north of) the United States of America. We have 10 PROVINCES instead of STATES, as well as 3 TERRITORIES.
FACT: Our national colours are Red and White, and our flag features the Maple Leaf.
FACT: We have a Prime Minister instead of a President.
FACT: Our National Police are called the RCMP.
FACT: Each Province has their own Police force as well. Ontario's are called the Ontario Provincial Police.
FACT: Canada's national food is Tim Horton's, a "coffee" chain named after a famous hockey player.
FACT: Smarties in Canada are different! Instead of bizarre rolled up multicoloured chalky candy which we refer to as "rockets", Smarties are a delicious multicoloured chocolate. You are supposed to eat the red ones last.
FACT: It is always cold.
FACT: Fortunately, because we have winter all the time, we've gotten used to it and have acclimated to it.
FACT: We eat delicious Canadian chocolates called "Bueno Bars"
FACT: We go on maple syrup hunting expeditions riding moose into the wilderness.
FACT: In Canadia, Beavers are a man's best friend.Note: Some of these facts may or may not be entirely ... true.
Happy Canada Day Everyone!

Nice. I really dug these. If i had a kid though I'd still tell him/her not to listen to what uncle randeep has to say...because he wears glasses may or may not make him that smart. ;). Happy canada day homey.
My favourite is June. I hate to admit it but the next time a foreigner asks if we live in igloos I'll tell him/her...*SIGH* YES!
Very nice Deep! Although I'm wondering why you left "Alberta" and "Manitoba" out of your map of Canada? And what the hell is a Bueno Bar?
What the fuck did you do to my country? I leave for one year and you're riding fucking moose around.
Fact: Canada Day is also my birthday! (though I don't think that's such an important one ;])

What ???
Surely not for me :-)
Huhuhuh.....this makes me infinitely happy.
Canadian smarties are the bomb-diggity. (Much better than our American chalk-snorting smarties.)
lol, Bueno bars are actually Italian, but I can confirm that everything else is entirely true. Which reminds me, need to go feed my moose. Thanks for this, Deep! It's high time more people knew who Canadians are and what they actually do up here!!
This has been an education. Thanks, Randeep.
Actually, June in Southern California felt like Canada this year. Did you have anything to do with that?
My friend, Donna is a total Canada freak. She simply adores the place. Wonder why she's never moved?
Holy blog explosion 'Deep. Good for you!
awesome !
Awesome blog man!
I've learned so much about canada.
- love your sense of humor hahaha.
In Canada, policing is primarily a provincial responsibility, but only three provinces have provincial police forces: Ontario (Ontario Provincial Police), Quebec (Sûreté du Québec), and Newfoundland and Labrador (Royal Newfoundland Constabulary). The other provinces all contract their provincial policing responsibilities to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), which also perform limited federal policing responsibilities throughout Canada. The Alberta Sheriff is a province-wide force, but assists the courts and does not fulfil all police duties. All provinces, whether they have their own provincial police service or use the RCMP, also assign policing responsibilities to some municipalities. Major urban areas and many other municipalities in Canada maintain their own police force.
What, no lumberjacks and touques? What about poutine?? ;)
Great post, Randeep!! My fave was the maple syrup hunting. I'll have to try that someday ;)
