Canadian things I love:
1. Poutine- I don't know if you're familiar with this delicacy: French fries topped with Gravy and Cheese curds. I don't expect anyone to share my excitement, since I've lost a lot of people to just Gravy Fries. You can get it topped with just about everything short of a marachino cherry, but plain Poutine is fantastic enough.
2. Tim Horton's- Kind of a high post Dunkin Donuts, with better coffee.
3. Posted alcohol levels on beer- You can by the same beer in different strengths, with the label having increasingly wild looking animals on the labels, with one 10%er going with the name "THE POWER!"
4. "The Simpsons" in French. I'm not losing the plot, since I've seen everyone a dozen times. But the accuracy of the voices is something else.
5. How nice everyone is- Most everyone speaks English, and the people who don't feel bad that they can't. I always say, if you can forgive me mangling your language, the least I can do is forgive your mangling of English.

You didn't mention smoked meat. It's what I imagine God eats when he's in Montreal. He doesn't have to wait in the "line up" outside the restaurant, though.
anonymous, I have NO idea who you could be!
