Canadian bacon

So yesterday, Chris took the Ultimate Canadian Test and this was his result:

---------------

Very Canadian
You scored 90 Canada speak and 93 Canadianess!
Nicely done! You could be one of us. You probably know someone who owns a Ski-Doo up at their cottage.



My test tracked 2 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 71% on Canada speak
You scored higher than 99% on Canadianess
---------------


I had scored 100 on Canada speak and 86 Canadianess when I did it, and received a lovely Mountie for my reward. And when I made fun of Chris, that I scored higher on Canada speak than him despite being Muggleforeign-born, Chris was pretty blase. "I am the poutine to your Mountie. You should eat me!"

OK, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] linaelyn and [livejournal.com profile] sugarkane_59, I now know that the flag I asked about yesterday was an Air Force flag. Does anybody know what this is?



Chris claims that it's the flag for Americans thinking of defecting North. I remain unconvinced ;)

On that happy note, we're heading downtown for the festivities.

Holy mother of god! Is that a massive coronary on a plate, or what?

Pretty much. French fries smothered in cheese curds and gravy. Canada's contribution to world cuisine. I can never decide whether I'm more mortified about poutine or the fact that we inflicted Alan Thicke on the world.

Oh, and Celine Dion, every time I read a songfic.

OTOH, we have gay marriage, so hopefully that balances the karma a bit.

IMO, Alan Thicke isn't that bad compared to Pamela Anderson. (Half of her is Canadian, the other half is Dow Chemical.)

Pretty much. And it's fucking delicious. (I'll make some for you when I get out there.)
