Smoke em if you got em.



I guess it depends on whether by "Canada" you mean "Ontario", or if you are going by the definition more generally accepted by the rest of the world. (Your subject line says "Canadian"; your posting says "Ontario".) Since you're from Ontario, you probably mean Ontario. Maybe this isn't the time or place to rob you of your ignor--sorry, your INNOcence, but Ontario is actually not all of Canada. I know this is like telling George Bush that America is not the only country on the planet, but if you look it up on a map, you will find it's true! In fact, if you look way over to the left, you will see that Vancouver (my signature) is, yes, part of Canada! Believe me, we don't like it any more than you do--but until Ontario fulfills its destiny by joining the US, yes, there must be tons of Canadian Browncoats. The movie review in the Vancouver area's main entertainment paper, for instance, was written by one.

(Well, other fans, I'm civil most of the time, but this whole Ontario=Canada really gets up our noses, here in what Ontarians fondly call The Rest of Canada.)

No worries. So, Manitoba. That's cool. Never been there. But then, I never get to go anywhere. Lots of Firefly fans there?

Edit: Vancouver, I'd have to agree with you. That whole Canadian Browncoats/ is there any from Ontario kinda ticked me off too. I didn't know if I'd be welcome, since I'm from The West, but I bumped anyway. It's what I do.

I give to you the Seeker of Serenity, the Valkyrie Warrior, the Gourmet Cook and the Truth Scoper.

Edmonton Alberta, where even though we're the capital, our Premier doesn't live here.

Not that I'm complaining

I'm seriously thinking of renouncing my American citizenship and becoming a Canadian.

To date, I have converted three people I know to being a fan of Firefly to some degree.

And I've only been a fan for about 4 weeks.

Saskatchewan. -Really- in the middle of the prairies. Low population density sucks...

“When peace comes to mean the absence of conflict on the one hand, and when conflict with an unjust and racist political order is a moral imperative on the other, then it is not difficult to understand that the better class of human beings are, in fact, deeply committed to disturbing the peace and creating conflict.”

It's flat and slightly hilly in places. Can't say you're missing much. But, then again, we probably all feel that way about where we grew up/live.

Don't know if I'd say a lot of fans, but I know a number and they know more, etc. So, we probably have our fair share.


@Vancouver:
Ah, good old sarcasm. I know it well

Even used it against one of my professors yesterday Class tomorrow may prove interesting.
