Tovarish 0 Posted March 11, 2003 Talking about Rick Mercer, how about his "Talking to Americans" skit? that was priceless . He'd go down south and posing as a reporter, interview Americans about some outrageous made up fact about Canada....and they would buy it and often have some very strong opinions about it! . Too bad they kind of stopped showing it after 9/11. Some clips here " My Ten Favorite "TALKING TO AMERICANS." by Rick Mercer 10) In Chicago: "Congratulations Canada on having running water in all five states." 9) In Washington, D.C.: "Congratulations Canada on your first national railroad." 8) In Washington, D.C.: "Congratulations Canada on 268 consecutive days of snow." 7) At Harvard: "Yes, I believe the seal slaughter should be stopped in Saskatchewan." 6) In Chicago: "Congratulations Canada on making Beaver Balls your national dish." 5) At Mount Rushmore: "Congratulations Canada, our Eskimo neighbours to the South, on your new Mount Mulroneyuk." 4) Governor of Arkansas: "Congratulations Canada on preserving your national igloo." 3) In New York: "Yes, I think Jean Chretien-Pinochet should be charged with crimes against humanity." 2) In New York: "Yes, I think it is time to bomb Gilles Duceppe." 1) Texas Governor George W. Bush: I'm glad to have the support of Prime Minister Jean 'Poutine.' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One has a funny english dialect and the other has a weird french dialect. They just have a go at eachother because they both lack the european beer (and wine) and thus would like to be placed as second best after the europeans. Hmm....they kind of remind me of the swedish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schoeler 0 Posted March 11, 2003 I haven't detected any real hostility in this thread, it seems to be mostly joshing each other to me. Anyway, Canadians and Americans are too smart to actually hate each other, we live too close together. We might not always see eye to eye, but after so many years of friendship, I think its possible to agree to disagree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Winters 1 Posted March 11, 2003 I do have a sense of humour and do understand ribbing, i never said i didn't. I just noticed that other threads that flamed or ribbed or whatever you want to call it were closed down due to "enough coverage by the media already" and yet one that ribs the US is allowed to stay open this thread is not the first one like it i have seen. But if you can't tell when someone is just making an observation........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warin 0 Posted March 11, 2003 As I said previously, I am surprised that it stayed open this long... So, I'll close it now Thanks everyone for keeping it pretty much civil and good natured Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
