Is Canada really as canadian as it looks??
 
We've been looking at deserting the UK for somewhere new, and have thought about Canada, but have been put off so far by just one thing - the culture! Is Canada really as canadian as it looks?

There is no way we would consider leaving the UK to settle somewhere substantially canadian, so is Canada the right place to consider?

:rofl::p:rofl::p:rofl:

:rofl::rofl:

we like your style lol, although it sounds like why we are wanting to quit the UK actually!

the place is just too British, the place is full of brits, british food, british tv, everyone speaks in a funny accent etc

it really is just too British, although with you saying Canada is too Canadian, where the hell can we go to?????? :D:D

the world just seems full of countries that are full of themselves, or is it just some of the people in the countries :mad::mad:

Can I use my GB hair straighteners to melt the snow in the yard and if so will it make Canada any smaller?
