Canadian Humour

You know you are from Canada when :

1. You wake up on a January morning and there is no mercury in your thermometer.
2. Your lawnmower has a block heater.
3. You put more mileage on your sled than your car during the winter.
4. You cars have four snows mounted on rims.
5. Four Season tires mean May, June-July and August.
6. The snowbirds head south and McDonald's lay off five servers.
7. If you live in the Maritimes you know what Rapee Pie is. If you were born there, you know what it is...and you like it.
8. You know about winter garages.
9. You have Canadian Tire money in your glove compartment.
10. A good day at the beach is when you do not need mittens.
11. Ice fishing season is longer than trout season.
12. Hunters set up folding chairs at Deer Crossing signs.
13. At least half the people you know heat with wood.
14. All the wood burners never have enough wood.
15. Spring arrives with the first sap run.
16. A nice day in the winter is a sunny one with no wind, even at –20.
17. Your mother has the original recipe for Tourtière.
18. Tourists favourite meal is poutine.
19. It takes only four blueberries to make a pie.
20. You know tricks for getting across the border ( ˜Scuse I just HAD to put that one in here).

I know how to make rapee pie, but darned if I've ever felt sufficiently motivated to do all that work - grating all those potatoes, squeezing all that liquid out and replacing it with chicken stock.

Heck, my CT money never makes it to the glove compartment. I carry it. I mean, why bother with the glove compartment. The dogs aren't going to spend it.
