I have been made to show id while buying-- black permenant markers--any decent cold meds because people buy huge amounts to make meth in the state of louisiana.

They're good if you don't know what kind of meat they're using.

My experience with Canadians, as motorcyclists, is limited. Most of the time I've spent in your fine country has been on ski trips. Don't generally run into too many motorcycle riders when there's a 5 to 10 foot snow base! The few times I've been up there during warmer months, we were working in the country. I've never ridden my bike in Canada and that's something I'd love to rectify some day. Anyway, I've found Canadians to be some of the most friendly folks I've had the pleasure of running into. I only hope that they find us to be at least half as hospitable when their traveling south.

While I tend to agree with you on this point, I have to admit, I was a bit tickled by this example because, when you get right down to it, it's not really saying much!

Ride Safe,

Probably because most of the AJH Team is actually Canadian.

As far as I know Ontario is the only province that has road side seizures for excessive speeding. If you are caught doing in excess of 50+ Km/h over the posted limit you will have your vehicle seized immediately and fined up to a maximum of $10'000.00, this is a fact!!

It is not illegal to be a member of an Outlaw M/C in Canada however the manner in which authorities have targeted certain clubs of late. I would suggest that it would be the next closest thing to it.

Now the debatable...

The CFL is better Football than the NFL.
Our MMA fighters are tougher. Go GSP!!
Our women are Hotter! Courtesy of Quebec.
I thought the quip about your military was a bit unfair also. Retired US Air Force here and trained some time ago with my Canadian counterparts...they were first rate in my book. The Snow Birds are still one of the finest air demonstration teams I've ever seen....

I dunno, I guess one starts with a C and one starts withan A ? And if our neighbors from the North are able to do anything even remotely in bad taste they just get deported and can come back again next year. The only real difference in the two countries is that some Emmigrants turned right at Ellis Island and some went left.
