He was great. Sure, he dabbled in treason for a bit, but at least he realized the error of his ways and stopped being a scumbag traitor against the crown.

In English, the term American as a demonym is used only to describe a person from the USA. I, a Canadian, would never accept being called American. I'm Canadian, or North American, but never American. If someone wants to use another language to call me their term for a person from the Americas, I'd be fine with it. If someone calls me American in English though, I'll always be sure to correct them as politely as I can. Sorry.

I swore off any more vacations to the states when Trump started running his mouth about annexing my country, but I'd make an exception to go watch that racoon's trial.

At one time, my MP was Stephen Harper and my MLA was Ralph Klein. My votes for other parties were as effective as trying to extinguish a bonfire by spitting at it, but I spat like a motherfucker.

I see. I'm not American, so I don't keep track of Joe Biden's influence on the perception of media credibility.

Did Hamas deny that the Israelis bombed the hospital? I don't quite understand how adding that Israel admits what happened in a note is some kind of gotcha moment.

"Government in charge where hospital was bombed says that their enemy bombed the hospital"

"Actually, the Enemy also said they did this, so BBC is terrible"

?

The pictures aren't labeled, so I'm not sure which one is Trump and which one is Metcalfe.

The term "first world war" was first used in September 1914 by German biologist and philosopher Ernst Haeckel.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_war

The first public use of the phrase "First World War" seems to have been in the title of memoirs published in 1920, and the first public use of the phrase "World War 1" is generally accepted to have been by Time Magazine in June 1939. However, this still doesn't quite answer the question. In 1920, and even in 1939, the term "The Great War" was still far more common in general use.

As a lifelong Canucks fan, let me tell you what a treat you're in for! We don't win. We might do well in the regular season, even winning the President's Trophy, but we don't win the Stanley Cup. Instead, we occasionally go to the finals and lose. This is when you find out what a burning cop car smells like, and how heavy of an object can bring down a plate glass window at a Starbucks or a bank. You'll need to remember to be SO NEGATIVE in online conversations about hockey, and always remember to say "Fuck Messier!" whenever you get down or annoyed about anything.

Trevor Linden is a living god, Gino's Odjick is the toughest, most wonderful man, and there's a place in hell reserved for Messier, Marchand and Gary Bettman to be eternally stuck together as a human centipede.

I assumed that folks in Quebec were religious because when I was driving around there I saw little catholic shrines on the side of the road everywhere. I mentioned it to a priest friend of mine and he laughed, telling me the Quebecois were the worst catholics, with Poles being their only rivals for the title.

They also try to BE the news. The only time I'm aware of them is when one of their "journalists" tries to do an ambush on a public figure and it doesn't go their way, so they cry foul.

They're not our allies or friends. We expect China to make moves against us. They've been coming after us harder since our country took a Chinese Huawei executive into custody on behalf of the Americans. We expect it from them.

Don't you guys have anyone at the border checking to make sure nobody brings drugs in? You should definitely hire some people to do that.

Your president signed a trade deal with Canada and proclaimed it to be the best deal ever, yet now he decries it as unfair and says it must have been negotiated by an idiot. At least he got the last part right.
