Re: Perhaps someone could tell me nicely what they like/dislike about Canada?

Another world. Last night we went trail riding in the country, it's pretty much like that out there, around Orangeville. I don't mind Toronto proper, gangs, drugs, drunks, dog shit and all, but my...

Re: Perhaps someone could tell me nicely what they like/dislike about Canada?

Re: Perhaps someone could tell me nicely what they like/dislike about Canada?

I, for myself, tend to beat around the bush, I have trouble expressing myself clearly and usually understate my position. Nonetheless, in a bid to be less mealy mouthed I'm going to come write out...

Re: Perhaps someone could tell me nicely what they like/dislike about Canada?

Kebabs in the style sold in England are available from the LaZeez chain of fast food joints. I'm not sure how big the chain is but I'll ask when I stop in for a kebab with pickled turnip on Monday.

Re: Perhaps someone could tell me nicely what they like/dislike about Canada?
