A Canadian literature institution made of "Cans" and "Clits", where curiously enough, straight male nerds use women as sex objects. Yet women - who oblige or not - employ said-nerd-men as useful idiots to advance their literary career aspirations.
CanClit relies on the motto "Yes I Can?" and various other hijacked / hackneyed literary slogans for its cause, cause it really can't. If it could, it wouldn't be mired in identity / sexuality / cultural appropriation / power politicking, and other vain rubbish.
Other important slogans are, "Those who can, can. Those who can't, teach." and "Can you do the can-can?"

- Gee! Sheila's mad at Freddy because the burgeoning "literary career" he promised her after much sex, left her in financial disrepair, eh. Oh well, she'll call on the virile "CanClit" hashtag for a publicity boost!
- Whoo! Shamus is annoyed at Morgan cause he didn't share the CanClit poon! Such a selfish little itty-bitty! There's enough to go around on - and off campus!
- The publisher sifted through piles of manuscripts, and mistakenly thought she stumbled on the next Atwood. Instead, she "chanced" upon yet another CanClit story... And needless to say, the manuscript doesn't warrant a response!
- Real writers explore the world with open eyes and think education is a cruel expensive joke. CanClit writers receive training in unispiring institutions, that cost tuition and sexual favors in exchange for degrees. Well, degrees aren't cred or good lit - guess what kinda literature people want to read- and which kind they'll avoid? "Can" you do that?

Canadian literature.
Overall, a literary 'scene' that used to hinge on rural tropes, miserable long winters, hockey eh, and ironic heroism. Yet with the rise of postmodernism and cultural globalization, Canlit has 'evolved' to literature frequently mired in identity, cultural appropriation, sexuality, power politics and other vain pretentious postmodern rubbish.
Canlit is a potemkin cultural effort to establish literary relevance, because Canada is actually a first world resource colony / banana republic, with culture determined by difference, resentment and a lust for reparations. Perhaps Canlit stands as a global signpost for the age of vacuous social media, rebooted CGI films, musical mashups approximating innovative originality, and a general loss of humanist transcendence in the wake of ascendant cybernetic fascism.

- A slushy kind of snow, that makes pedestrians slip and slide, and motor vehicles slide and crash.
- The type of snow people the globe over have to get used to, in the face of a warming planet earth.
- Since it is still "technically" considered snow, climate change deniers use it as a way to deny... ...climate change!

Oh dang, did you just see that city bus dummy that 18 wheeler? Last night's shnawlzy-storm really made a mess of the streets today.
Damnit! I just tore my new pants open! I slipped and fell cause of the shnawlzy snow that is more like slush.
Climate change doesn't exist! Even though there is no snow, we still have shnalwzy storms! Mraww!!!

The sound made when someone's surprised by someone else, as they get distracted and walk into an object that impales their tender parts.
Person 1: "Surprise Holmes!"
Person 2: "JeeBooVeeJuss! Oh Holmes, you made me impale my loins, ye cheeky cogswadle!"
Person 1: "Evidently, its elementary, my dear Watson. Thoust dearest requested I prevent you from "shooting bullets" that bare offspring...
Person 2: "Oh, you gobshite, Sherlock Holmes. Always the schemer,
Person 1: "You know it!"
