Re: Happy 143rd Birthday Canada!
No! It's always like this here. Everytime there's a mention of Canada.... there's always someone that have to dis it. I wonder how you would feel if every time there's a mention about U.S. that you would see us posting stupid shit about how U.S. sucks!
Thanks alot!

I personally have no problems with Canada or Canadians. People just need something to make fun of, and Canada is an easy target. In all likelyhood, 95% of the people dissing it have never even been there or know anything about the country.

Jeez no history run down?
Let me.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada
The land occupied by Canada was inhabited for millennia by various groups of Aboriginal peoples. Beginning in the late 15th century, British and French expeditions explored, and later settled, along the Atlantic coast. France ceded nearly all of its colonies in North America in 1763 after the Seven Years' War. In 1867, with the union of three British North American colonies through Confederation, Canada was formed as a federal dominion of four provinces.[10][11] This began an accretion of provinces and territories and a process of increasing autonomy from the United Kingdom. This widening autonomy was highlighted by the Statute of Westminster of 1931 and culminated in the Canada Act of 1982, which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on the British parliament.
