Being Canadian I have heard all sort of stereotypes. Like, aboot instead of about, that we must all live in igloos or that it is ALWAYS cold here.

I for one do pronounce it ABOUT, I live in a normal apartment building and well my AC is blaring in the summer time because it gets so hot. But the stereotypes always makes me laugh. So I just Thought it would be a fun board to see what some other stereotypes people think about us Canadians.

I heard you can't have dogs or cats, so everyone has a polar bear for a pet.

And instead of coins, you use hockey pucks.

Eh?

A Canadian is walking down the street with a case of beer under
his arm.
His Canadien friend stops him and asks, "Hey Bob! Whacha get
the case of beer for?"
"I got it for my wife, eh." answers Bob.
"Oh!" exclaims Doug, "Good trade."

A guy from Quebec and a guy from Toronto are walking down the
beach. They come across a magic lamp, out comes a genie and
says, "I will grant each of you one wish." So the guy from
Quebec says, "I wish for a wall 500 feet high around Quebec so
nobody can bug us again."

GRANTED!

The guy from Toronto says, "Fill it with water."

GRANTED!
