I was down in the states for a party with a bunch of dudes from some website. Someone was moving my amp out from the rain to under the tarp as I was getting up to do it myself. It's a 50w marshall combo from 83, weighs a tonne, so I looked over and said "Hey, thanks eh!", should have heard them laugh lol, I'm like "what?"

not in border towns it's not.
any mention of the legendary Canadian Ballet?
up until '09 we went to Canada often, sometime a couple times a week, great Chinese food around the border towns and the Ballet afterwards for relaxation.......
When I lived in Messina, NY we went to Timmy Ho's in Cornwall constantly.

No one says serviette anymore. I haven't heard that one for probably 20 years.
Also no one says chesterfield anymore either....it's been couch for as long as I can remember. I thought chesterfield was an American thing.
Poutine is mostly an eastern French Canadian thing and you don't see it very often out west....I think it's disgusting btw.
Sneakers are runners here and soda is pop. Smarties are little round candies with a hard candy coating(not colored chalk in a wrapper) and ding dongs are called king dons for some legal reason.
A cheque is not something you pay it's something you use to pay.....usually the bill.
