Who here loved the movie Canadian Bacon? I know, I know, it was made by Michael Moore-on, but it was back when he didn't claim his fiction was documentaries, and he didn't try to disguise the fact that his movies were only made to get laughs. Starring John Candy, of course, a Canadian.
Some great lines from it:
Gus: Canadians are always dreaming up a lotta ways to ruin our lives. The metric system, for the love of God! Celsius! Neil Young!
[TV Announcer describes the Canadian National Tower in Toronto] TV Announcer: It is the height of six American football fields, or five Canadian football fields. As if Canadian football really counts.
Smiley: When have you ever heard anyone say, "Honey, lets stay in and order Canadian food"?
TV Announcer: Think of your children pledging allegiance to the maple leaf. Mayonnaise on everything. Winter 11 months of the year. Anne Murray - all day, every day.
Roy Boy: Are you sure we're in Canada? Honey: You smell anything? Roy Boy: No. Honey: Exactly. Canada!
RCMP Officer at Headquarters: I don't know what you're talking aboot, eh? Kabral: Aboot! It's ABOUT! And what's with this 'eh' business? Roy Boy: [pointing a gun] We have ways of making you pronounce the letter O, pal.
