A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

  1. Be civil and act in good faith.
  2. No trolling.

For me it's Corner Gas. I still think it's pretty funny and there's a decent amount of references to Canadian stuff but not enough to be off-putting. I feel like an American wouldn't be confused watching it even if some of the references get a bit dated overtime.

I have only seen a bit of the animated version in waiting rooms.

Trailer park boys. I think it's the only Canadian show that has really exploded outside of Canada all the way to Europe. It's also so revolutionary. I always hear about how original the UK office was with their mockumentary style, yet trailer park boys did it first.

Anyways, I would rather shove hot needles up my urethra then watch a full episode of corner gas.

You're saying you've never tried thermalgesiaphilic sounding?
