Canada is a beautiful Country. I've been there several times. I pulled into St.John's with the US Navy in the 80's, major tide shifts...
Besides Beer and Hockey, let's not forget those Canadian Ladies.....

In truth, no one can really explain Canada! Its a bit of an odd fluke actually!

Canada: Australia, but with snow instead of beaches.

Au Contraire. Canada was well thought out before creation.

Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for 6 days. Eventually Michael the Archangel found him, resting on the 7th day.

He inquired of God, "Where have you been?"

God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly pointed downwards, through the clouds, "Look Michael, look what I’ve made."

Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, "What is it?"

"It’s a planet," replied God, "and I’ve put LIFE on it. I’m going to call it EARTH and it’s going to be a great place of balance."

"Balance?" inquired Michael, still confused.

God explained, pointing to the different parts of EARTH, "For example, Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth while Southern Europe is going to be poor. Over there, I’ve placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people." God continued, pointing to different countries, "This one will be extremely hot and arid while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."

The Archangel, impressed by God’s work, then pointed to a large landmass in the top corner and asked, "What’s that one?"

"Ah," said God, "That’s Canada, the most glorious place on EARTH. There’s beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, streams and an exquisite coast-line. The people from Canada are going to be modest, intelligent and humorous and they’re going to be found traveling the world. They’ll be known throughout the world as diplomats and carriers of peace."

Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed, "What about balance, God? You said there will be balance?"

God replied wisely, "Wait until you see the loud-mouth bastards I’m putting next to them."
