Re: This is why people don't respect Canada...

You may think that because you need to gather everything its hard, but if you think of what you can accomplish in 8-12 hours every day, going hungry when your next to an ocean is next to impossible and you don't even get sunburnt if you are smart enough to stay out of the sun from 10 to 3ish.

Yeah but you aren't like....lets go to Australia/Africa and walk around where the lions and hippos hang out without a guide or gun or anything else you might need to remotely survive. Hell people like that ride first class and think they are bigger than life already. Just to say "I survived the outback/savannah" kind of people.

It's those same people that tend to go to these war zones...for the "experience" of surviving the thrill of war. Go join the freaking Army if you want to live that thrill.

Re: This is why people don't respect Canada...

I dont really want to get into this fight. Id just like to know where your getting people that dont respect Canada... Aside from the US, and they dont really respect anyone anyways.

Really just a silly thing to say -_-

That said, if someone was going to stop respecting us, it would be fore our flippy floppy government antics. Not silly tourists visiting active Warzones and finding out the hard way its a bad idea.

Re: This is why people don't respect Canada...

I don't respect Canada for other reasons. Every country has stupid people. And if people did this to want to do something wild and live on the edge. Afghanistan would be the worst place to go. Go camping in a jungle or something. Afghanistan would be f***ing boring all the way up untill you got killed or captured. Best thing you'll get there is hiking to the top of a mountain and getting a better view of dirt..."oh, look at the pretty view.".....



Edit: See you guys finally up'd you age of consent to 16, you're getting there....

I respect Canada.

Fools exist in every country on planet earth....

Your thread title is really misleading here.

How can anyone NOT love the country where CTV, Global HD, BTO, Rush, Molson, Hocky & the McKenzie brothers are all so graciously gifted to the rest of us.

I'm just old...

anyone remember SCTV Toronto??

Second City TV was a launching point for many famous people today.

John Candy (Of "Uncle Buck" fame) began as a SCTV player.

Kids in the Hall, funny stuff.

and this very forum is owned and operated... guess where?? CANADA

I wonder if you could pay enough money and get to set up a room in a pyramid:P Would be an interesting place to live if you forget about the fact that they are elaborate tombs (right?)
