Oh CANADA!!! ~HWHN~

Greetings and Salutations one and all, it's What's His Name again, here to enthrall you all into taking a look into the country that brought you "The Red Green Show", William Shatner, and some really, really good beer... CANADA!

One of the main things I thought was really cool about this country is the fact on or around May 2012, Canada decided to stop making pennies. Makes cents you know, after all it saves them billions of dollars having to make loose change that nobody wants rolling around the glove box or ash trays in the cars they drive. The U.S. Postal service could learn from this, not to mention a few other branches of government. (Of course Australia did this back in 1966, but hey they are related aren't they?)

"Blue Noser" is a term for those from Nova Scotia. I'm sure it has something to do with weather conditions, which is why they are not referred to as BROWN Noser...which is an entirely different topic of conversation. Just sayin'.....

They have annual bath tub races in Nanaimo. Good , clean fun no doubt! www.bathtubbing.com

Of course I would be remiss if I failed to mention a few fun facts in relation to this website,

The world's first U.F.O landing pad was built in 1967 in St. Paul, Alberta. So far no takers from another galaxy has put it to use that we know of. We should probably tell them about the beer!



And Canada not to be out done has there very own lake monster known as "Ogopogo", in Lake Okanaga British Columbia. Probably a distant cousin to Loch Ness.

What do Hockey and comedian Don Rickles have in common.....???? Leave your answer in the reply below, you might get a prize!

Date: 7/12/2018 12:02:00 AM  From Authorid: 998    I have been to the left coast of Canada a couple of times, and I really love it.

I have lived and visited a lot of states but I believe Washington state has the most friendly people. After saying that, we seem to pale by comparison to our neighbors to the north. Each time I have crossed the border into Vancouver, Surrey, Sidney or Victoria we have been met with the nicest and most relaxed sort of people. Even at stressful over packed ferry crossings and detours the workers just do not let anything get to them.

I will have to come back to this post with some more interesting points of interest. I gotta try to match 'Hey, What's His Name' ... lol
  
Date: 7/12/2018 9:56:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    I used to love visiting the British Columbia area every time I went to visit my folk's while they lived in N. Idaho. My folks used to think I was only using their place as a rest stop. Kootenay Lake, Creston, Banff, The Canadian Rockies, the quaint towns didn't have bars...they're respectable "PUBS". Oh yeah....really , really good beer!  
Date: 7/13/2018 12:42:00 AM  From Authorid: 998    Hmmm, did you mention the really good beer?!? .... LoL  
Date: 7/13/2018 7:40:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Hey, I could be a travel spokesperson for Canada! Just sayin' ... Australia had Crocodile Dundee doing those shrimp on the Barbie ads, I could do "really, really good beer'!  
Date: 7/13/2018 2:53:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Hey, What's His Name! Good to read you, again. I like Moosehead. (beer, that is) I also like the hunting stories Sargeant Steve told me about British Columbia. I do not know a whole lot about hockey and Rickles reminds me of a smart mouth underclassman I knew in high school. Everyone was so shocked by the thiongs he said that they usually didn't bother to beat him up. Write about it....(no matter what "they" say)  
Date: 7/13/2018 2:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Let's make that "things," please.
  
Date: 7/14/2018 8:50:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Hey Kronk! I like Canterbury, Kokanee, and various others that weren't readily imported like Moosehead, but hey Moosehead works too. Perhaps I will see about a possible relocation to St. Paul to find a new lair in addition to coaxing others from another place to pay a visit. It's hard to pass up really, really good beer. Especially if it's FREE!   
Date: 7/17/2018 7:38:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    And now for a public service announcement: From Red Green himself......"Remember, you may have to grow old, but you don't have to mature".  
Date: 7/18/2018 4:06:00 PM  From Authorid: 998    Oh I agree with the public service announcement. Serious, stuffy and 'mature' people tend to wither up and blow away too soon. A fun summer day blowing bubbles, skipping along and jump on a swing in a park. Nothing beats staying young ... no matter what the age on the birth certificate says   
Date: 7/19/2018 4:50:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Personally, I enjoy playing four-square, hopscotch, and tetherball these days
.....but those under 4 ft in height don't.....
