Best Canadian export?

[arcadian]

first edit, to switch out Tommy Chong for Kim Cattrall. If you would like to vote for Tommy Chong, merely vote for Kim Cattrall and state that you have voted for Tommy Chong in your response. If you would like to vote for Tommy Chong but do not wish to endorse Kim Cattrall then leave that space blank and state that you are doing so in your response.

second edit, Replaced Marxist ideology with John Candy, they are pretty much one in the same.

third edit, "Arcade Fire and Guy Maddin" to appease angry Canadians so they don't step off the DEW line and leave the Good ole U.S. of A. completely defenseless from an attack by the Ruskies.

fourth edit, "Other" equals "beaver pelts"

I had no idea she was even in Porky's. :eyes:

[arcadian]

19. Porky's was the first time I ever saw her bare ass.

[Zorro]

20. Gordon Lightfoot

Joni Mitchell a close second.

[ghostsofgiants]

22. I would say me, but since I still live here, I'm not technically an export.

So I'll go with Arcade Fire and Guy Maddin.

[arcadian]

24. I'm in the U.S. and reading your words. That makes you an export.

What is Arcade Fire and Guy Maddin? I'll put it up there if the edit period hasn't expired.

[ghostsofgiants]

25. Arcade Fire is a killer indie rock band from Montreal, and Guy Maddin is a brilliant filmmaker.

[SoxFan]

31. I thought you were going to bad mouth Robert Gordon Orr

That will set me off even worse than that damn Catholic thread...

[ghostsofgiants]

32. I hate hockey, but i've got nothing against Bobby Orr.

[Chan790]

66. I'm from Hartford and dating a girl from Montreal...

I might vomit if I had to say something nice about Bobby Orr or Ray Bourque. I'll admit being a closet fan of Cam Neely.

<---This is Canada's greatest export.

[TX Screwball]

62. I've never heard of poutine.

Just looked it up. I will have this tonight!

[Chan790]

67. Poutine is an abomination against potatoes.

French fries shall only be served with ketchup or a combination of malt vinegar and Old Bay when I'm dictator. :patriot:

[arcadian]

35. What the fuck is that??? Snow chicken?

n/t

[ghostsofgiants]

37. Poutine. Fries, cheese curds and gravy.

Fries + gravy = Yes. Fries + cheese = yes. Fries + cheese + gravy = NO.

[SoxFan]

39. My best friend is half French-Canadian

I tell him to leave the cooking to his Sicilian half.

[SoxFan]

38. Poutine

It's what passes for a delicacy among the fine people of Quebec.

You can occasionally find it in diners and restaurants in communities with large blue collar French Canadian populations, like Manchester, NH, Pawtucket, RI, and Lewiston, ME.
