Speaking Of Canada
By Mitch Berg
Today is “Canada Day”, the 142nd anniversary of Canada finally getting permission from the UK to get its own place.

Congratulations, Canada!
To honor the holiday, I plan on being nice and innocuous, cranking some Gordon Lightfoot, Rush or Triumph (but not Loverboy; ew), complaining about the price of beer, and getting into a hockey brawl.
Happy Birthday!

…and getting into a hockey brawl
From a macro standpoint, don’t you mean finding someone else to get into a brawl on your behalf?
Oh – nevermind. That’s the French Canadians!

If they got rid of the Canadians, Canada would be a real nice place.

I like Canada. If you like to fish, Ontario is a great place to visit. I’ve flown in to more than a few places up there and the difference from fishing around here is night and day.
Now, as to the price of gas up there, I can do without that.

LIke there’s any difference between Minnesota and Canada. Modest white people who talk funny and know a lot about driving in snow.
