Even the Toronto Hells Angels are polite!


Good people. Tough as hell and good pilots.

Obviously I agree as I emigrated to Canada 3 years ago, and I'm not the only one on this forum either.

Soon, Canada will be President of the United States

Coming to the rest of the World soon (if that's OK with you). Hope you like Maple Syrup!

Here ya go Fox. Great song. Sometimes just one line makes the difference between a good song and a great one.
"Their promise as solid as the fog..." makes that a great song.




These guys leave April Wine and Rush in the dust.

Hell, we even have polite burglars. This chap (or chapette as the case may be) felt so remorseful after nicking somebody's stuff, they returned it along with this note and $50 to repair the screen door they damaged breaking in!

Not "Still". It is worse. We started on it only a few years ago, early 70s, as I recall. Part of the TRUDEAU legacy. No more need be said.

Watched the William Shatner video, made me think of the sketch by The Royal Canadian AirFarce as Lucien Bouchard doing "I am not a Canadian".

If i knew how to put videos on i would

Think Canada would be a place i could live, as a uncle & aunt moved from Germany in the 50's.
