I've never met anyone from that half.

The Other half spend tons of cash attempting to pirate American Satelite TV, so they can actualy watch stuff when its new, not 2 years old and "approved" for Canadian TV.
Er, US network programming is shown at the exact same times up here, all they do is change the commercials. People pirate DirecTV because a) they want free pay-per-view, and b) because if you pirate Bell's sattelite service, they send robot death squads after you.

Plus...they say "aboot" alot.
Every time I go to Buffalo, they're all like "y'all come back now, y'hear? We'll have us all a reeeaaal good time at the hoedown! Cook y'up some chitlins real nice!"
Americans talk so funny.

We had no clue where we were, we just left our hotel and started wandering around. So there we were, four straight guys sitting in this restaurant, when we start seeing an awful lot of flamboyant men and masculine-looking women amongst us. At first I thought it was no big deal, but on the way out I noticed the rainbow sticker on the door and took note of all the rainbow flags flying from the buildings.
We laughed about it for the next few days, though...it was just a funny and crazy day.
I eat in that neighbourhood all the time. I have a friend who lives near there, and the restaurants are awesome. There's nothing weird about it- there's tons of straight people coming through there since it's only 2 blocks away from the main downtown street. It's not some forbidden zone or anything.

Come on now, as if we'd leave the Big O lying around in the street like that down here. And really, the garbage thing only applies to chinatown.

.... and why Toronto joined the US.
Haha...nobody from Quebec can talk trash about not being Canadian enough.
