As promised, here's my Canada Day Top 10 list: The Top 10 Ways to Tell That [i:post_uid0]Andromeda[/i:post_uid0] is Made in Canada.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]0. Most Americans aren't even aware it [i:post_uid0]was[/i:post_uid0] made in Canada. (Well, at least I didn't.)

Great list, Zeke.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I didn't know that either! thanks for enlightening me. Of course I've never seen Andromeda...[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Ah! I was wondering if I'd see an exchange rate gag. :D

Most of the aliens have Canadian accents, too.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hey, I was this close *holds fingers approximately a light year apart* to being an extra on Andromeda.[/color:post_uid0]

2. Robert Hewitt Wolfe got in the credits, beating out his little-known rival, Robert Hewitt Montcalm [/quote:post_uid0] :D
Also the exchange rate bit.

Nice goin', eh?[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Considering that I think Zeke and I share comparable political views across international lines, I feel sorry for him. And Canada. Nevertheless, great top 10 list. Though I'm not sure if the one about free health care was meant as an insult to Conservative leader Harper, the Andromeda character, or both, or even if it was an insult. I'm pretty sure it was a pun though. I think. :think:[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Seeing as how Stephen Harper hasn't been infested with alien larvae, I assume it refers to Seamus Zelazny. Apart from not being elected King of Canada, nothing all that bad has happened to Stephen Harper yet.

Meh.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Steve in SPAAAACE! :D

Funny Top 10 list. After a year and a half with you Canadians here, I`m able to get almost all the references, :p[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I love it (and get most of it) and I have never even met any Canadians. Unfortuneately.#

Awsome list! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]We're around, stripysox. It's all part of The Plan.[/color:post_uid0]
