Some Questions that were asked LOL
Now that Vancouver has won the chance to host the 2010 Winter Olympics, these are some questions people from all over the world are asking. Believe it or not these questions about Canada were posted on an International Tourism Website. Obviously the answers are a joke; but the questions were really asked!

A. We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around and watch them die.

Q: Will I be able to see Polar Bears in the street? ( USA )
A: Depends on how much you've been drinking.

Ca-na-da is that big country to your North...oh forget it. Sure, the

I just knew the visitors' centers would be polite, informative, and above all, appreciative of tourism.

Theres actually a segment on a tv show up here called 'talking to americans'. Needless to say they find some pretty *cough cough* intelligent people. Apparently we just got our first flush toilet the other day, and here i am still crapping in a bucket in my igloo.
Please dont ban me boomer...

Seriosuly though, those made me laugh so hard. I like the one about walking from toronto to vancouver.

Oh don't get me wrong... Mercer and Talking to Americans and the Mercer report are hysterical...

Then again... the US could very well have a show called "Talking to East Coasters..."
