Canadian Phrases?

Sucks to live in Windsor, even the local stations report weather in farenheit and snow and other measurements in inches/feet... nevermind having to hear it from the stations in Detroit!

On the weather getting real hot and then real cold in Toronto, that is true. But you can live in the heat in TO, whereas in the heat in Windsor is like being in a sauna, drinking beer makes you sweat LOL. And although it gets cold down here in the winter, it doesn't get AS cold, so I guess there's a tradeoff.

And on the topic of "soda" vs. "pop". I used to tend bar at a local banquet hall, there were always some yankees at every wedding, always wanted "soda", I poured them a Club Soda every time and then got a stupid look... it was priceless... the joke was on them... LOL

Also, they don't ask for types of beer, they just ask for brands, like, "I'll have a Molson" or "Gimme a Labatt's"... which translates to asking for a "Canadian" or a "Blue". Always confused them and ask back, "What kind of Labatt's?"...
Hey, you don't have anything against Americans, do you? Sad
