1. Yep, exactly. It got to the point where if you traveled to other countries

2. Seriously Hope...we had to cancel plans to go to London. (2004)
financial reasons..but if we had, we were going to tell everyone we were from Canada. Sad isn't it. But that was where we were at.

4. That is the truth. My step grandmother was from Ottowa and we

7. I think I would have had to go over those Red Green tapes a couple of more times
before I could have gotten away with it.. Just Kidding..My hubby is from Minnesota, and he has it down pretty pat..that just a bit of a stall before the next word.
