Interesting 8)

I have kinfolk in Canada, maybe I should go visit :lol:

Used to love watching the NHL games on forces TV, many years ago before satellite got well established. My favourite teams were Toronto Maple Leafs and Montréal Canadiens.

If my memory serves me right the word 'Ca- na- da' means means 'No- thing - there' in French or Indian or something? Yet this is the birthplace of some of the greatest thinkers and actors in history that most peeps would think were American, such as Will-i-am Shatner and Pamela Anderson not to mention Dan Ayckroyd, Leslie Neilsen (no relation to famous Swedish art-rocker Lib Neilsen :wink: ) and Michael J Fox. To say there's nothing there...well it's just not fair. :wink:

Not French, that would be "Il n'y rien" or similar.

Neil Young is Canadian, as is Paul Anka, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, etc. etc.
