Hey...... I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader... and I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled...and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice.
I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak english and french, NOT american. and I pronouce it 'ABOUT', NOT 'A BOOT'.
I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peace keeping, NOT policing. DIVERSITY, NOT assimilation, AND THAT THE BEAVER IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE ANIMAL.
A TOQUE IS A HAT, A CHESTERFIELD IS A COUCH, AND IT IS PRONOUCED 'ZED' NOT 'ZEE', 'ZED'!!!

Hey, I'm not an Eskimo or a "Frenchee"... And I don't own a pair of snowshoes or mocasens... Altough I do have five pairs of hockey skates... I don't know Randy, Andy or Sandy from CANADA.... Altough I'm certain they get very, very drunk on the weekend. Yes, I do know that Micheal Jordan is the greatest basketball player to ever walk the face of the earth... But I also know that if he ever laced up a pair of skates, Wayne Gretzky would kick his ass. I believe in "Play-off hockey," not war... "Majors for fighting," not "Fighting Majors"... And that after battle you shake hands with your opponents, they go golfing And you move on to the next round. We won the World Series in 93' and 94'... The Stanley Cup is the most sought after trophy in the world....we own it!! And We also own the rights to Vince Carter.... MY NAME IS ALEXA!!! AND I AM CANADAN!!!!!
Here's to you CANADA.... Here's to your hockey hair... Your long underwear... And multi-coloured money... Here's to saying "please"... Your ducks and geese... And to always being funny... Here's to your pretty girls... Your black coloured squirrels... And a flag that stands so free... Here's to different races.. From different places... Who love this country....Like me... But most of all, Here's to standing tall... And saying it like a true Acadian... I LOVE THIS LAND... I LOVE THIS COUNTRY..... AND I AM CANADIAN!!
Hey, I'm not an Whale Hunter or a Beachcomber, And I don't own a pet seal or a horse carriage .... And I do own a color telivision and a recliner.... No, I don't know Timmy, Jimmy or Kimmy from Canada.... Although I'm certain they sit in front of the telivision every Saturday night... I know that 65% of the players in the NHL are Canadian... And I also know that compared to Hockey, watching a game of NFL Football is like watching paint dry. I believe in the "Red, White and You".... Not the "Red, White and Blue".... CANADA OWNS 33% OF THE WHOLE WORLD'S FRESH WATER SUPPLY... 22% OFTHE WORLD'S WETLANDS.... AND 10% OF ALL NATURAL FOREST... HOCKEY IS THE FASTEST GAME ON EARTH.... AND DONOVAN BAILEY IS THE FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD....(no matter what you Americans say) MY NAME IS ALEXA!!! AND I AM CANADIAN!!!!!!!
