Netherlands: 2001 (my brother celebrated his 15 year marriage to his husband this year).

And we've had tactile markings on our paper money for ages too. And we don't need to keep our cars unlocked as we don't even have polar bears. And one could buy pot here for decades without fear of legal punishment. So where's our thread?


you want me to make you a thread? don't complain about it if i do.

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

33. Canadians invented the Wonderbra

And a shout out to Noll for the warmth and gratitude demonstrated by the Dutch to Canadian soldiers and the Dutch gift of tulips to Canada. (Google Tulip Festival - Ottawa)


LOL, I didn't know about the festival or its origin. But credit where credit is due: while we are famous for our tulips, we originally got them from Turkey.

45. The people are friendly (if you discount Quebec).
46. The roadways aren't cluttered up with billboards.
47. The countryside along the highways are so clean!
48. Canadians know how to clear snow from the roads. An hour after a blizzard and the roads are clear!
49. Going in to Canada the Customs are nice. Coming out, the US Customs are a sack of pricks.

Too bad for Nickelback nullifying any actual valid reason.

Edit: damn you Sprite, for beating me to it and actually giving it a positive twist.

37. Burned down the White House in 1812 (ok,maybe the British did it, but they were British living in Canada at the time)


Actually, it was 1814.

Those British Canadians actually did two big favors to the USA. First one. The Presidential Palace was not white at the time. After being burned, it was necessary to paint it to cover the burn marks. We painted it white, hence the term, 'The White House', which is a much better marketing name than The Presidential Palace. So a big advertising win for the USA. Thanks!

Second thing. Those same soldiers that burned 'The White House', who were under the command of British General Ross, marched on over to Baltimore a few weeks later. There General Ross met his personal doom at the hands of an American sniper. His army collapsed into chaos and defeat after he was shot, and they had to scurry back to the safety of the British ships, who had lost their half of the battle also. Then as they left defeated, they were forced to look at a huge, brand new American flag, flying defiantly at them, from Fort McHenry, which inspired Francis Scott Key to write The Star Spangled Banner.

So, Thanks! It all worked out well in the wash. Your American friends got a great marketable term and a national anthem out of it all. A century later, the USA, Canada, and The UK permanently cemented their ally status. And The UK figured out that when it comes time for their colonies to go independent, just let them do it with their blessing. As they did with Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and so forth. Maybe could've done a better job with India, though, but still, they figured out, fighting wars with their offspring probably wasn't the best policy. Wars suck anyhow.

PS. Do y'all claim Justin Beiber? Just asking.

61. Canada has been invaded by Americans twice, in 1775 and 1812. In 1813 an American attack was thwarted by a brave woman known as Laura Secord who gained intelligence of an impending attack and was able to warn defenders. The Americans were defeated both times. Laura Secord has been immortalized in Canadian folklore but best known of all: a franchise of chocolate makers was named "Laura Secord" in her honour.

Only Canadians can turn war into chocolate.
