Provincial Mood's definitions

Quebec

french speaking canada, the second biggest province. it's people are decendents of french immigrants, yet the people in general have a disdain toward france for basically abandoning the place in 1757. older generations also have a similar disdain toward canada because of the language divide. montreal is the capital and is basically toronto, but with a different langugae. quebec city is europe in north america, beautiful, but harder to navigate for an english-speaking tourist (the deeper into quebec you get, the less likely you'll encounter english signs). tried to seperate from canada twice, which was a stupid idea. younger generations are more apathetic, which is actually a good thing, since it means quebec sovereignty should never be an issue again.

The liscene plat of quebec says Je Me Souviens. This translates to "I remember." What the hell are they remembering? Truthfully, they don't know!

nova scotia

canada's vacationland. unfortunately, most people forget about it, except when they want to get away from citylife in toronto or ottawa. beautiful coastline, amazing scenery. province is in bad shape financial though. home of three great things that start with s- seafood, sloan, and sidney crosby.

I add amazing scallops while listening to Sloan and watching Sidney Crosby on TV while in Nova Scotia.

tommy douglas

creator of modern canada. founder of the NDP, the democratic socialist party whos policy have had a great impact on the nation today. creator of liberal reforms, with medicare as the crown jewel of his policies. voted the top canadian of all time. he's a socialist, not a communist. only an american, australian, or albertan would be too stupid to know the difference.

American: "Yous Canadians is nice, but most of you is a bunch of weird backward commies."
Non-Albertan Canadian: "No, our nation is founded on democratic socialism, so is every nation in Europe and even li'l America, otherwise known as Japan."
America: "No, I watched the Fox News Channel and dey said that only Canada has socialism and that it just a codeword for commies."
Non-Albertan Candian: "Fox News? That explains your stupidity."

Tommy Douglas would be apauled at the gov't of Alberta's attempts to slash his reforms!

saskatchewan is way out there.

manitoba

Often ridiculed prarie province of Canada. Americans have never heard of it because its above the Dakotas (another place they've never heard of), Canadians forget about it because it had only one city and it's near nothing else. Manitobians are an industrious bunch, because they have to take care of themselves. They weather sucks, and if you don't live in Winnipeg, then you're probably near nothing. Winnipeg isn't bad but it had the same reputation as Buffalo or Cleveland in the US, as if its some bad place that everyone should leave. Manitoba's got lots of lakes too.

Manitoba's at the 100th meridian, where the great plains begin.

british columbia

canada's 3rd largest province and probably it's most beautiful. beaches, mountains, cities- everything you'd want is basically here. but bc's biggest attraction is it's high quality mary jane. there are a few amsterdam-like 'coffee houses' in vancouver, bc where you can smoke the stuff, but they're being reduced in number unfortunately.

in british columbia, weed is the biggest cash crop.

newfoundland

the eastermost province, way out there in the atlantic. has its own special timezone, cause it makes em bad ass. newfies is the pejoritive word for them, it stereotypes them as hick fisherman. they're not, but it is true that they live liqour. and curling, which is actually as popular as hockey there. newfoundland is an interesting story. it was a country for a bout 15 years in the early 1900s, then ran itself into the ground financially. their gov't asked the brits the make them a colony again in the 1930s, which they did. then the brits asked canada if they wanted newfoundland and canada said "why the hell not?" and took it.

newfoundland is the only country in world history to voluntarily give up independence and become a colony.
