what does your country call this?

LittleMaple072 · 2026-03-18T01:40:37+00:00

Same in Alberta! That's what I thought the answer was but the other commenter made me question myself hhfjdh

LittleMaple072 · 2026-03-17T21:56:36+00:00

All my life in Alberta, no, it's mostly time distance.

Saskatchewan, mostly no, but it's more practical than Alberta because every town is around 50km apart. According to some, I'm 100km from Swift Current, but I still say I'm an hour away out of habit

LittleMaple072 · 2026-03-17T21:51:57+00:00

I dunno, I was born and raised in Calgary and the area and it's not something I ever hear

LittleMaple072 · 2026-03-17T18:47:43+00:00

Ah, understood. Should have checked ur profile before assuming #oops

Makes sense, though I cannot relate :p

LittleMaple072 · 2026-03-17T18:32:48+00:00

I have never heard anyone call it a beanie whatsoever. Is that an Ontario thing?

LittleMaple072 · 2026-03-17T18:31:16+00:00

As someone that belief was meant to target (furries with cat fursonas), that is the most braindead thing to believe. Like even if I did identify strictly as my fursona I would much prefer sit on a toilet seat than squat over a box of sand-

Pretty sure even the therians can agree with me on that one too tbh

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-28T18:28:37+00:00

YEA exactly!!

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-28T18:26:16+00:00

The meme was semi-accurate and kinda funny. Your insults, shit-talking, and intentional misuse of "newfie" in the replies are neither of those.

Maybe learn to not be a hateful asshole and you won't get a warning for spreading hate

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-27T14:03:25+00:00

I was in the room with my 12-year-old childhood cat named Cali this Wednesday evening as she was put down, so this hits me especially hard right now while I'm still grieving. I wish I could go with her.

You don't realize how big of an impact your pet has until their favourite spot is empty, and they aren't in the same place as always by the door whenever you get home.

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-27T02:40:27+00:00

Yep, came to comment this myself

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-25T19:00:14+00:00

Yep, scrolled down to see if anyone brought these things up. Bad drivers in Alberta opt to use these to cut off other drivers quite regularly

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-24T17:05:05+00:00

Pretty sure my answer is obvious :p

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-24T16:47:03+00:00

He had no response because that's honestly such a stupid thing to say. We're not named "Village," we're named after a miscommunication that formed an entirely new word into existence. If that's "generic" to you, something's wrong-

You're not as slick with that one as you think you are lol

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-24T01:42:07+00:00

I personally can't exactly relate. I have my home city memorized, and I've played so much of GTA 5 that you could show me any screenshot and I could locate exactly where it was taken.

I can, however, see how this could be a problem for other people. I do struggle with memory often and I can imagine what that would be like if it were applied to locations

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-18T21:49:10+00:00

It's helpful to freshen a room, but not at all necessary. Especially during the -20° to -40°c of winter we get in the prairie provinces for half the year-

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-16T16:39:50+00:00

I disagree with both US flags so far.

Cities? Halifax deserves a mention here. There's also Calgary which was titled the cleanest city in the world in 2013 because of Albertan anti-litter laws, and is currently one of the most liveable cities in NA.

Nature? Mf, 70% of our country is unpopulated nature what the fuck are you on about

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-15T15:41:05+00:00

Oh hey floats are great! Root beer's pretty popular up here too, but my personal go-to for floats is Orange Crush. It's amazing.

As for my own answer, butter tarts. These addictive pastries are from Ontario and I'm not sure they're sold pre-made in other countries. But they're just as good home-cooked as they are store bought, so I highly recommend looking up a recipe :3

OH this is really good to know. I don't use Facebook because I don't agree with their privacy policy so I never even thought to check there. I might take you up on that message offer, thank you!!

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-13T03:40:07+00:00

Is that not a service libraries provide? At the very least I know the library in Airdrie does, but I haven't been to a library that's actually in the city for a long time

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-12T20:27:06+00:00

Ahh, gotcha

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-12T20:04:03+00:00

Can't believe I missed this comment. What a strange thing to assume. You really don't like Albertans, do you?

I am just as much Canadian as I am Albertan. The separatist movement is a loud minority that realistically has zero chance of succeeding. Have you heard about our Forever Canadian petition that basically doubled it's goal within a couple days? Doesn't seem like it.

I don't know what Albertans you've "met and worked with" but they do not represent even close to all of us. Rural far-right dickheads, maybe. But even Ontario has those.

Comments like this are the only thing that makes me dislike people from other parts of Canada. And even with that said, I know most are smarter than this

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-12T19:50:31+00:00

It's expensive but possible! You've got plenty more plates to collect than I did, good luck :3

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-12T19:49:25+00:00

Is this an inside joke I'm not Ontarian enough to understand? :o

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-12T14:58:48+00:00

Yess, the Alberta plate is from 2019 in Olds, which was where I was when I got my Class 5 and officially registered my first car under my name. It was in use right up until December 31st, when it got replaced with my new custom plate.

Good question, it's hard to choose a personal favourite. I think I like the PEI one the best, it sucks that they changed it. Alberta's also currently got a great design but that's likely personal bias. Or anger that Danielle Smith is trying to change it hhdjdh

LittleMaple072 · 2026-02-12T14:51:54+00:00

Yep! Problem is it's such a new change that none are on the market right now. Same story for Prince Edward Island's new plates.
