I've known this for ages but thought I'd tell you lot. I wouldn't have known about Britain, I wasn't born yet...but does that mean I might not have been born at all because my mum would have had me with most likely a Canadain man...?

It was when my Grandma was quite young & I think one of her brothers was moving to Canada but she chose to stay here in this boring old village which isn't good for anything.

I want to go to Canada, looks fantastic! When I got the money I'm going on holiday there. So anyone's guess right now is that maybe ~Da Moose~ is a long lost cousin or something...

Hence why patriotism is horsecrap. Where you're born is out of your control.

-AC

Yeah but even my mum wasn't born at the time so...we would've had different parents. If I was born over there I most likely would have been half Canadain.

I was born in China, but I would've much rather been born in Canada.

Nobody seems to be happy where they are born. All I hear is complaints for homeland and praise for the foreign lands they visit or have some know about.

You're there now though Dark.

Penguin dude: I was born in the Antarctica but I would rather have been born in the Galapagos islands.

Bloigen: I was actaully born in Scotland. And I wouldn't swap that for anything.

So I am! And what a wonderful place it is.

God I'm glade you wern't born here... Stay in Brittan!

i live in and was born in britain.... its good there.

I was born in Europe, but I think Canada's my home.

Nationality is merely a filter through which we see the world and each other.

You were? I didn't know that.

I was born in the US and lived here my whole life.

USA, born and raised.

Never been outside of the country.

I could have been born in Canada too!! ...if my parents had moved there instead of staying in England. Oh my God....it's amazing..maybe we're long lost sisters or something...





...and it's grown...not grew....

I was born in Honduras and raised in Toronto, Canada. Been to 5 states in the us, been to Costa Rica and Cuba (only at the airport though)

I was born and raised in Belgium. I' ve visited the Netherlands, France, Germany, the UK, Italy, Spain, Greece and the USA.

Hmm....Nope, don't remember having any Dragons in the family... no Of course, I haven't met all of my mother's side, and Gah....if what I have met is any indication of whats lurking in the shadows, it might be entirely possible.

Never left the country ? Not even for holiday ?

You see...there's a thing called...not everyone has the kind of money it takes to fly the family out of the country.

Ryanair!! ..takes me to Ireland twice a year nice and cheaply ...except I don't know if they do America...

It's pretty expensive to fly...when I went to England it cost $580 and that was cheap.

I was born in Canada and I love it here. I have lived ,or spent a significant amount time in, every prvince or territory and I think Canada is a fantastic country made up of some of the most beautiful land in the world with some of the greatest people.

I have been lucky enough to have travelled extensively through the U.S. and central america as well as through Europe, SE Asia, and a few other countries, and although each has their good points, I am always happy to return to Canada.

Finally ! An optimist !

But isnt Canada a bit too cold?

I dunno if I could handle living in Canada

I don't get this whole preconceived notion that Canada is covered in ice and it's perma-winter here. When I was in Buffalo a year ago, it was colder there than it was in Toronto that whole week.

No one I know knows anyone that has a backyard pool. We could always go to the public pool, I guess.

Duuude....*shakes head sadly*

"i guess" = no.




Okay.....so, what would you rather be doing?

O.K. do people realize that canada's most southern point is lower than california's most northern point?

We just don't have one season (winter). It can get down right hot here in the summer and fall is gorgeous.

Okay. Have fun.

Whoa haven't you two had a smashing conversation? Took up nearly two pages, wow! Oh, why did my Grandma pick to stay here in this boring old village? There's nothing to do here.

Canada looks so beautiful & pleasent... Moutains, lakes & beautful scenery. Makes a change from old British life; a cup of tea & a biscuit watching Coronation Street.
