What appealed to me is this...

"It is true that "most Americans" know absolutely nothing about Canada!

BTW he is a comedian and he makes his living making fun of Canadians as well.

Why was I supposed to care about Canada?



I'll watch it and get back with you. Gotta run. He has a great speaking voice, so I won't mind the nine minutes.

Okay, knothead. It was kinda funny!

I had the headphones on and my husband asked me what I was laughing about.

I said, "This guy is making fun of America."

He said, "He's making fun of America?"

"Yes, do you want to listen to it."

Glares and shakes his head NO!



All it showed is that we are not afraid of war.

Correction, Americans are making fun of Americans by not knowing anything at all about Canada!

Well, our guy in the cowboy hat told him - No, I don't plan on going and I've never heard of a building made of ice.



I'm sure the crew decided who to ask by looking. You know they didn't want violent confrontation.

Come to Texas and ask us what we think?

And can I ask again? Why do I care about Canada?

What confrontation?

The Americans asked didn't have a clue.
