And that’s the only time we’ll hear that in Canada. :smiley:

85

Dammit, Cat Whisperer beat me to the joke.:smack::(:frowning:

(And I knew I should have gone with bonjour, rather than making a joke, but…oh, well.)

86

49th place - I’m so ashamed…

87

Second place eh?

88

Thank you! [Takes victory lap.] I’m a little surprised I won since it’s been a long time since I was in the Great White North.

Also, for the record, my SDMB handle has nothing to do with the also-ran Canadian political party.

89

Back to the middle I go. Fun feud, despite my total ingorance of the Great White North.

90

Holy crap for crap! Top 10! That just beats the pants off my usually mid-pack or lower. Yay Canada - thanks for bordering my state!

Thanks for the feud, **Rebo **and KtG.

91

Sixth place with 9/10 correct answers. Once I again I am screwed by John Candy! (long story)

92

I don’t think I want to know.

93

At least you didn’t go with my answer: Le Car.

It was honestly the first answer that I thought of. Depiste that, I contend that it is probably the worst serious answer used in a fued ever.

94

I know I missed this one, I was on vacation off the grid but being Canadian I had to get my answers in anyway :smiley:

  1. New York
  2. Celine Dion
  3. John Candy
  4. 401
  5. Superior
  6. Skydome
  7. The Queen
  8. French
  9. Beaver
  10. Oui
95

Thanks, Rebo and Kenner, you hosers! :smiley:

96

I give you 9 out of 10. I would have preferred “Tabernac” as the French word (that was my first instinct). :smiley:

97

At least you’ll have an easy time telling how many points you would have received.

526

98

Yep, and we’re still paying for the last time we heard that in Ontario!
Damn you Bob Rae!

Thanks!

Funny how “bonjour” is the #1 answer yet you really don’t hear it that often outside of classroom. “Allo?” or “Salut!” are much more commonly used in Quebec.
Of course “Oui” is pronounced more like WAA
I hear “Tabernac” (TA-BARN-NACK) or Tabarouette (TA-BAR-oo-WET) alot as well as my personal favorite “Shit La Merde!”

99

One of the benefits of bilingualism. You can swear twice as much.
