What **NATION**?

I thought Canada was the North American equivalent of Antarctica. Until somebody can show me some undoctored photos of **actual** residents of Canada, I’m going to assume that you all live in Arizona.

Oh, and bear nenno, if you’re reading this, that was just a joke. So don’t throw a little hissy fit.

[sup]Nah, **steeljaw**. You just need to improve your humour (note the spelling!) a bit to get a reaction. Watch me get a reaction out of our Canuck friends (and they are friends! No, really).[/sup]

Well, I am Dutch, but I _am_ a **Rush** fan. Does that count?

Ok you win. We don’t exist. If I were to exist tho, I’d probably claim to be an Anglo Quebecer- the unlikeliest of all.

I’m in Edmonton, Alberta as is Lola… my significantly better half.

Steeljaw - You just want to be first on our list don’t you?

Coldfire- Any fan of Rush can’t be all that bad. We do have more than our fair share of great bands don’t we?
