Different stuff in canada

CANADA | Sunday, 29 October 2006 | Views [621] | Comments [1]

A few of the things i have noticed to be a bit different in canada are:

They drive on the wrong side of the road!!!

Egg shells from eggs bought at the supermarket are perfectly white and smooth, they seem artificial, maybe they have superior chickens here?

petrol is known as gas (even though it is a liquid)!! i have had many discussions with my eight year old canadian cousin about this. Thought it is best to try to highlight this inconsistency to up and coming generations.

Some cars dont have orange indicators, the brake light flashes to indicate! Can be a bit of a hazard for the unweary 

Cars in the Province of Quebec don't have licence plates on the front of the car.

French is the first language for a lot of canadians on the eastern side of canada.

Maple Syrup, pancakes and Bacon can all be served together! It is surprisingly nice though.
