Remember To Take This With A Little Tongue In Cheek!!!!


The New Canadian Rant :

My name is Norm and I AM CANADIAN. I am a minority in Vancouver, Toronto and in every casino in this country.


I was born in 1958, yet I am responsible for some "FIRST NATIONS PEOPLE BEING SCREWED OUT OF THEIR LAND" in the 1700's.

I pay import tax on cars made in Canada. I am allowed to skydive and smoke, but not allowed to drive without a seat belt.

All the money I make until mid July must go to paying taxes. I live and work among people who believe Americans are ignorant yet these same people cannot name this country's new territory.
Although I am sometimes forced to live on Kraft dinner and don't have a pot to piss in, I sleep well knowing that my taxes helped purchase a nice home for some unskilled refugee.

Although they are unpatriotic and constantly try to separate, Quebec Still provides my nation's Prime Ministers. 95% of my nation's international conflicts are over fish. I'm supposed to call black people African Canadians, although I'm sure most of them have never been to Africa, or east of Halifax for that matter.

I believe that paying a 200% tax on alcohol and cigarettes is fair. I believe that the same tax on gasoline is also fair. Even if I have no idea what happened to that old rifle my grandfather gave me when I was 14, I will be considered a criminal if I don't register it.

I believe spending $15 billion to promote the French language in the rest of Canada is fair when the province of Quebec doesn't support or recognize the English language.

I believe that paying $30 million for 3 Stripes ("The Voice of Fire painting in Ottawa) by the National Art Gallery was a good purchase, Even though 99% of this country didn't want it or will ever see it.

When I look at my pay stub and realize that I take home a third of what I actually make, I say "Oh well, at least we have good health care, roads, educational system and law enforcement because of it."

I must bail out farmers when their crops are too wet or too dry because I control the rain. My national anthem has versions in both official languages and I don't know either of them.

Canada is the highest taxed nation in North America, the biggest Military buffer for the United States, and the number one destination for fleeing terrorists.

I am not an angry white male. I am an angry taxpayer who is fucking broke. My name is Norm, and I am Canadian.
