Canadian flag on the backback myth
It could also be that Canadians visiting foreign countries don't refer to the residents as foreigners and demand they speak english. They don't go to a local restaurant and demand food as served at home. They usualy don't spend the day telling their hosts how things are so much better at home and try to make up for bad manners with a huge tip. Hi, I remember the time I was eating in my regular first day chinese restaurant in amsterdam... and the waitress (asian, very probably chinese) was trying to wait on a table... she started with english, then dutch, german, french, chinese (I guess), then back to english... BUT THIS TIME LOUD ENGLISH. ended up pointing at the pictures on the wall. -- MICROSOFT WINDOWS 2003 ENTERPRISE SERVER W/ 25 LICENSES http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3680289486 Derringer Kit Gun Sideplates http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3680513644 |
