I'd like to wish a very happy "Hate Canada" day to the rest of my American Breatheren today. Today is a pretty sepcial day. Most holidays come only once a year, and on the same day every year.
But today is different, today is the second "Hate Canada Day" we Americans have gotten to celebrate all year. The first being the outstanding the US World Junior championships, where the US did the world a favor and shut those damn Canucks up with a 5-4 win.
If you don't remember, here's the memories from that great day

So here we are again with another glorious hate Canada day, with the possibility of another one in a few days in the medal round. Needless to say, it's a glorious time to be a Canada hater here in the US of A. One could almost say it's the golden age of Canada hating. (Or the silver age of Canada).
Just so we know what we're dealing with here, here's a couple fun fact about Canada:
- More baby seals are killed in Canada than anywhere else in the Western Hemisphere
- Canada mostly resembles a mixture of Alaska, North Dakota, Idaho, and Maine. That's 3 of the US's 5 most boring states!
- The Northern Lights are created when harmful charged particles from the sun hit the Earth's magnetic field and are taken to the North Pole. In other Words, the states get the glorious bronzing snshine, and Canada iss a dumping ground for the Sun's excrement.
- The Canadian Capital City is Ottawa. Ottawa's sister cities are:
- Bejing, China
- Buenas Ares, Argentina
- Seoul, South Korea
- Catania, Sicily, Italy
- Campobasso, Molise, Italy
- "Ottawa" in Naitive American is "Black Sheep"
- Alberta is one of the most ethnically diverse provinces in all of Canada, thanks to Jarome Iginla, Niklas Hagman, Miika Kiprusoff, Ales Kotalik, and Denis Grebeshkov.
- It takes 40 gallons of Maple Sap to make 1 gallon of Maple Syrup. Coincidentally it takes 40 Canadians to equal the productivity of 1 American.
- Canada is the 3rd most visited country in orth America... So take that Guatamala!
- Canada is so polite they once burnt Washington DC to the ground in the War of 1812... and didn't inflict any casualties. They have also written a couple strongly worded letters.
- 90% of Canadians live within spitting distance of the USA border, and 95% of Canadians listen to American music, eat at American Restaurants, watch American movies, and even drink American Beer.
