Excuse to eat like a pig day.

Sorry for all you Canadian viewers. You get no turkey.

We had turkey last month.

Good thing I got my blu ray players years ago, now if only I could activate the gaming portion of it.

But yeah Happy Thanksgiving!

Quote:
The history of Thanksgiving in Canada goes back to an explorer, Martin Frobisher... In the year 1578, he held a formal ceremony in Newfoundland to give thanks for surviving the long journey. The feast was one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations by Europeans in North America. Frobisher was later knighted and had an inlet of the Atlantic Ocean in northern Canada named after him — Frobisher Bay.

At the same time, French settlers, having crossed the ocean and arrived in Canada with explorer Samuel de Champlain, in 1604 onwards also held huge feasts of thanks.

Quote:
The modern Thanksgiving holiday traces its origins from a 1621 celebration at the Plymouth Plantation, where the Plymouth settlers held a harvest feast after a successful growing season.
It appears you're between 43 and 17 years after ours.
Get your own holiday.

You see, it doesn't matter, because its Canadian, and no one but Canadians care about anything Canadian. You still haven't figured this out yet?

We enjoyed our internationally understood real Thanksgiving of eating turkey and remembering the subjugation of native peoples, and you did whatever it is you backward people do, like brewing beer, playing hockey and/or fighting, and calling ham bacon.

False, it matters because it's undeniable proof and fact that ours was first.
I wouldn't expect any type of humility from an American, though.

The Vikings discovered the Americas, yet the poem goes: "In the year 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue" and not "Some Vikings showed up years earlier."

If a tree falls in the woods, does anyone hear it?

If a holiday is created in Canada, does anyone but Canadians recognize it?



Enjoy our 51st state while you can, and take good care of our trees.

By the way, you do know I was poking fun at America in my own post, correct? Playing the role of "the ugly American" is fun, especially with you since you are so nationalistic, but a little patriotism never hurt.

I was 100% joking and playing along.

Now see, in that video Ellen Page actually looks her age. Why couldn't she have looked like that in Inception so that I wouldn't find myself ogling someone who looks like a hot 14-year old?

Apparently you need to be reminded that 61.1% of Canada's population is overweight.
