however, hockey is a workout.. sitting on the edge of a seat for 2-3 hours is a workout.. with the ocassional (if you;re a leafs fan) and the constant (if you're a canucks fan) jumping up when your team scores..

Hahaha. Being from Saskatchewan, we always cheered for anyone but the Leafs.

Being from Boston, I'll cheer for anyone but the Canadiens.
...
or the Yankees.

oh the irony.

And I'm running in a half mary in Canada this weekend. If I meet Jimmy, Sally or Suzy I'll be sure to say Hi.

Sacre bleu!... and the mounties don't really wear the red serge or use sled dogs... they have snowmobiles now!

Oh wait, I see now by the spelling of the subject line you were actually asking about candians. I can see how that might be true about candians but not for the majority of left coast canadians or canadiens for that matter.

Saperlipopette!  Althoug I now live in Ottawa, I am a Canadien from the West Side as I was born in Montreal!  I do not like hockey .... nor do I like  football, baseball or basketball.  As  a matter of fact I do not like to watch sports at all ... never did.  AND, I wear a tuque, not a toque.

I think West Side meant West Coast in the first post of this thread.

so, I took run4yrlif's advice, and the fool proof method of using urbandictionary.com. I learned that CANADIAN is defined as "a native of Canada" while CANADIEN is defined as "not American." Interesting.

Okay I know that you must be making this up because there aren't many Canadiens on the west side. Or maybe you're right... those Canadiens just can't get enough of the snow and hockey.

For the record, I am not a Canadien.

jeng - 2005-10-21 2:36 AM Canadian's (and Canadien's) rant: Hey, I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader.... I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled.... and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really really nice. I have a Prime Minister, not a president. I speak English and French, not American. And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'. I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peace keeping, not policing, diversity, not assimilation, and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal. A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch, and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed' !!!! Canada is the second largest landmass! The first nation of hockey! and the best part of North America My name is Joe!! And I am Canadian!!!

Ohh I so wanna go visit Canada now you guys sound soo much like Aussies (hmm I mean that in a good way)   plus we spell the same way so I won't get confused lol!!

POTUS and SCOTUS have always sounded like anatomical terms to me.

"I am sorry to have to tell you this, but you have a swelling of the potus which is impeding the proper functioning of your scotus. I don't have to tell you that if your scotus is not functioning properly, you may not be able to father a child."

Jen, I sort of figured that West Side was referring to something other than Western Quebec; I was making a funny ....   

And 3558, urbandictionary.com's definition of "Canadien" means "not American" is funny but in Canadian political terms, "Canadien" is used to refer to a Canadian of French ancestry living, or at least born, in Quebec.

Yes, and in Quebec political terms, "Canadien" is synonymous with "traitor" or "colonized Quebecer". No, just kidding. That's only true for 30% of the population.

Wow! Canadien, canadian, canadienne, quebecer!!!

I don't know how popular it is out of Quebec, but doesn't this remind you the Elvis Gratton movie where he tries to explain who he is to a frenchman?
