[QUOTE=Johnny Hildo] No, cuntbag. It’s the arbitrary nature of which your dipshit postal service has taken with regards to our mail. No name on the return address when my fuckin signature is two inches down on the customs form? Seemed to work fine for me before. This is telling me that my mail ran into a douchebag Canadian postal official who is so fuckin by the book that he gets hards when he sees your nonsensical ZIP codes written on the last line before the word CANADA. Well, now Canada gets none of my goods. I hope they’ll be able to survive on reindeer jerky and maple syrup, or do they offer other products these days? [/QUOTE] “Cuntbag?” I don’t think this insult is working - it made me laugh out loud. **Sunspace** , we have two cats, and it’s a thing of beauty, how when trying to get them out of somewhere, I pick one up and carry her out, put her down, go back for the other, and as I’m carrying cat #2 out, the first one walks back in. Cats, man. Did somebody say oil, gas, hydroelectric, lumber, wheat, beef, gold, uranium, diamond, and beer omelette party? Alright! I’ll make the Nanaimo bars! ---

Care to name some Canadian brews you feel are superior? [/QUOTE] Be glad to: [Creemore Springs](http://www.creemoresprings.com/live/). Nice dark lager. Try it on tap; the draught is much better than the bottled stuff, but either way, Creemore beats any mass-produced commercial lager hands down. [Mill Street Brewery](http://millstreetbrewery.com/main3.htm) makes a fantastic wheat beer. [Empress India Pale Ale](http://www.steamworks.com/thirsty.htm) from the Steamworks Brewpub in Vancouver. All the taste an IPA should have, and then some. [Propeller Porter](http://www.drinkpropeller.ca/beer/ourProducts.html#porter). Black and sweet, this is probably the best Canadian porter I’ve tasted. [Steam Whistle](http://www.steamwhistle.ca/). A pilsner. An ice cold Steam Whistle is what you want on a hot day. Of course, tastes vary, and no doubt some Canadian doper will be in to sing the praises of McAuslan, of Big Rock, of Quidi Vidi, or of other breweries’ products. I’m just answering your question; the ones I think are superior to products from Sierra Nevada, Fat Tire, and Shiner. And to be honest, I think the items my list are superior to Granville Island, too. ---

[QUOTE=alice\_in\_wonderland] **Frank** , darling, there was fucking in Canada as recently as last night. While I don’t have any sort of documentation or a website you can refer to, please take my word for it. I’m still walking funny. 😃 [/QUOTE] If all goes well, there will be fucking in Canada tonight. There may even be oral, but don’t worry folks, it’ll be domestic oral. Which is basically free in this Socialist paradise 🙂 ---

[For all you sardoniacs:](http://www.mainerec.com/wcounty1.asp?Category=145&PageNum=145) > [@](#): > > A most remarkable and heart- warming relationship exists between Calais and its Canadian sister city, St. Stephen, N.B., just across the St. Croix River. Canadian and American holidays are mutually celebrated, nearly every organization has a mixed membership; Calais imports its very drinking water from Canada one of two places in the world where water is imported for this purpose; the Calais and St. Stephen, N.B., fire and police departments cooperate on every call for help. They also used to have an international street car.
