Pamela Anderson isn't exactly what I want others to think of when they think of our country.
Well put. However Wrt Pamela's assets, I'd rarther we be though of in by our neighbours to the south than any of her other body parts. Mal roney was I believe the French version of his name. But then again WTFDIK

Looneys & Tooneys. $1 and $2 coins circulated in modern currency...what the hell, Canadia?


Yes, Canadia gave us Steve Nash, Jim Carrey, and Kristin Kreuk. That doesn't even come close to making up for Celine Dion!

I just got back from the states with two US $1 coins (0.93 cents Canadian).

And Michael J. Fox and Wayne Gretzky. Sorry about Celine, but we don't want her back!

We aren't the only ones with $1 and $2 coins. The EU has them as well. Btw, what's up with all of your bills looking the same?

True, he jumped ship just before the election in which his party (the conservatives) got punted out big time and lost almost every seat; they were almost bitch slapped into extinction.

Still we should have punted him the first chance we got as the Americans should have done with Bush.

Yep, hooked on phonics woked good fur me.

Good to see you did your research this time. That's an interesting description. While I don't know what "bitch slapping" is it sounds like shades of Chretien and the current state of the Liberals.

You should ask for a refund on your course though.

I assure you, those are very uncommon in real circulation. I've gotten a $1 US coin 2x in the last decade.

Wayne Gretzky...sounds familiar...he invented the Zamboni, right?

Oh no...don't get me started on Monopoly money. Everytime I cross the border into B.C. I feel like I should get $200 for advancing.

No, that guy is wealthier. Actually he is the real athlete all other football, baseball and basketball players want to be.

That's a good thing and part of how you win the game,especially compared to the Americian peso.
