Well, time for a little levity. I've concatenated this list from several on the internet, taking out any that may be deemed offensive.
Non Canadians will find some of it funny, and some of it confusing, if not nonsense.
You know you're Canadian if :
You've frozen your tongue to something metal and lived to tell about it.
You're not offended by the term "Homo Milk"
You drink pop, not soda
You understand the sentence "Could you please pass me a serviette, I spilled my poutine"
You know that a mickey and a 2-4 means "Party at the camp eh!"
You're not sure if the leader of your nation has EVER had sex and you don't want to find out!
You have Canadian Tire money in places you wouldn't expect to find it.
You dismiss all beers under 6% as "for children or the elderly"
You know that Casey and Finnegan aren't a Celtic music group
You participated in "Participaction"
You use a red pen on your non-Canadian text book to fill in all the u's in labor, honor, and color
You are excited whenever an American tv show mentions Canada
You get milk in plastic bags
You've plugged a car in overnight
You can drink legally while still a teenager.
There are seven empty cars running in the parking lot of your neighbourhood Tim Horton's at any given time.
You know that Mounties "don't always look like that." The red is only for special occasions!
You wonder why there isn't a 5 dollar coin yet.
You use a tennis ball more for road hockey than for tennis.
You design your Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
The local paper covers national and international headlines on 2 pages, but requires 6 pages for hockey.
You find -40c a little chilly.
You perk up when you hear the theme from "Hockey Night in Canada".
Pike is a type of fish, not some part of a highway.
You sit on a couch not a chesterfield - that is some small town in Quebec!
You know what a Robertson screwdriver is.
You know that Thrills are something to chew and "taste like soap".
You know that the Friendly Giant isn't a vegetable product line.
You have an Inuit carving by your bedside with the rationale, "What's good enough protection for the Prime Minister is good enough for me".
You know the French equivalents of "free", "prize" and "no sugar added", thanks to your extensive education in bilingual cereal packaging.
You know what a tuque is.
You have some momento of Doug and Bob.
You remember when Alanis Morrissette was "Too Hot To Hold".
You send angry letters to the CBC demanding the return of the Hinterland Who's Who spots so you can finally find out what happens to the arctic ptarmigan in winter.
You know more than 3 guys named Gordon.
You know who Relic is.

Milk in plastic bags? Really?

I'll admit being ignorant to the metric system.
Why we're on this stupid system anyway is beyond me. Surprised we're not still measuring in hands and weighing in stones.

Yup! The US is still holding strong to the Imperial system! 
| |
|
Eh, everything was decided long ago by the Romans anyway.

Ok, now you're just making me sick.
