Uh....not entirely sure how to respond to this.... I guess that since there more births than deaths, then it's a good thing?

you guys are going to run out of room and try to invade us.I can just see it.
Then you'll be all:
"What's a toque?"
"wow! this beer is so much better than ours!"
"Oh THAT'S what a cow/moose/bear looks like!"

300,000,000 is an arbitrarily important statistic, like the Dow Jones. People like seeing lots of zeroes for some reason...but I must admit I wouldn't mind seeing some more zeroes at the end of my bank account balance.

I know what a toque is...and I don't use one.

The beer is better...but some Samuel Adams blends are really delicious.

I already have a familiarity with what the native wildlife up north looks like.

Oh, that's right--I am neither typical nor normal.

I don't doubt that you wore yours stylishly, but a) its too warm here and b) my hair is a little thick and parted on the side; a toque would simply ruin it, I'm afraid.

"dock me a few points", eh? I'll have to think about that one....

erm....ok. Not quite the reaction for which I had hoped, but at least it was humorous.

No, I really am not that vain. No, I don't think the song is about me.
