The Canadian Flag

At the top of your photo chitique page you have flags from all over the world.
I noticed that the Canadian flag is not included. Why is it not displayed with all the others?

That's because Canadians are forbidden on the site.
You're not Canadian are you?

At least we have an original name. The USers only have the generic America, so be careful or we won't sell you our oil.

Because Canada is the same as the US. Just like New Zealand is the same as Australia which is the same as the British.

I understand why our flag isn't there, but I resent this thread.

We speak French just fine

I can think of a couple good reasons to include the Canadian flag separate from our neighbours to the south. For one, we use very colourful spelling. Secondly, Americans must realise they are not the centre of the world.

It is like the war of 1812... the British's greatest moment, burning the whitehouse and the American's didn't even notice... kinda like anytime we beat them at hockey... or they beat us... we are the only ones that care...

Now if we said something like 'American Beer Sucks!' (Think John Canddy in Canadian Bacon)

We could have a riot...
