    As a Canadian, I can assure you that “There’s a youth hockey team staying in every hotel in Canada” is the truest thing ever said about Canada.

    Two friends and I travelled from the US to Australia. All three of us are from Colorado. While traveling by train from Melbourne to Sydney we went to the "snack" car. As we waited in line, an elderly woman got in line behind us. We immediately asked her to go ahead of us, we were in no hurry. The woman stepped in front of us and said, "you boys are so nice. What part of Canada are you from?"

      I'm from niagara falls and a couple of yrs ago I held a door open for an older black couple.. The woman in a heavy southern accent said to her husband " you see that that little white boy held the door open" she was so shocked. I said just being Canadian

    So many people say they love Jim because he's a "clean" comedian, but I don't think that's really the essence of his appeal. I think it's that he's wicked smart behind an unassuming demeanor, part of a long tradition stretching all the way back to Will Rogers. Even Richard Pryor was like this, despite his saltier language--he also projected a a mild, sympathetic, non-aggressive persona. The antithesis of the rockstar, bigger than life presence that so many comics attempt.
