American riders have the ability and 2nd ammendment right to repel "hood-rats" without getting their hands dirty.

j1mmy, you are right, a couple of years ago it was wild, the biker wars. I can't blame the cops, I have relatives in Qc & Ont and a friend in the opp, it was war, bombings, assasinations etc. Glad it died down but its still their.

The Labats down here is not the same Labats you have up there.
We only go shopping at a tire store when we want tires.
We don't ask "Where ya to".
We don't go oot & aboot.
We buy gas by the gallon, not the litre.
Our military doesn't get all their equipment from a garage sale.
We don't start many of our sentences with "The problem with you Americans".
Only SOME Americans like Hockey.
Only SOME American PLAY Hockey.
Most Americans don't go finishing & hunting on a first date or honeymoon.
Our women aren't very good at peeing in the woods or on the side of the road.

American riders put chile on their french fries. The usually eat a bag of chips and have a can of pop with their lunch. They call a can of coke or pepsi "soda", not pop. They say ruf instead of roof. They always say "y'all". They say "uuuuhuuuuuh" instead of "your welcome" as a response to "hey thanks". They're missing a very important word in their language it's "eh". They like white gravy in the States, what is that stuff anyway?

We live in igloo's and kiss our wives by touching noses, Americans eat rattle snakes.

Ya don't hear a Canadian say"Did ya see those big assed goats on the road? I gotta get a close up of those." Well what was I suppose to do? Wife and I went to watch the show. This was in Jasper next to a herd of Rocky Mtn big horns....Canadian riders seem to look outside and say "The roads are dry let's ride..Ya it's 10 below we just warm the bikes up abit longer".
Canadian riders are easy to find if they lay their putts down by the steam cloud their heated gear leaves in the ditch. Where else in the world can you buy a 12V leopard skin G-String?

Default Thats funny.

I don't believe that I have ever seen any motorcycles of any kind on Trailer Park Boys ( the only Canadian TV show I have ever seen unless the Red Green show is Canadian). All this time I thought it was a documentry.
