Why do all the trees on the prairies lean east? Because Toronto sucks.

LOL I've never seen that quote before. It fits the city stereotypes quite well.

"Ottawa: armpits and earmuffs" - attributed to the late Maclean's columnist Alan Fotheringham

I think it was in reference to the city being too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter.

Q - How many Calgarians does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A- 1 million, with one person screwing said light bulb and the rest reminiscing about the 1988 Olympics.

I thought they'd be complaining that if it weren't for equalization, they'd have way brighter light bulbs in every socket in town?

Nah, they'd be such a shining city on a hill that they wouldn't need lightbulbs in the first place...........

Calgarian: Actually it's 1.4 million, making Calgary the 4th largest city in Canada - and it would be even higher if Okotoks was part of the CMA!

Oops! My mistake. I just stole the joke from the internet, so it was obviously an older one..haha.



So these two guys from Saskatoon decide to escape the cold weather in winter and take a vacation. They go to Australia.

Sitting in a bar down under, still wearing their touques and flannels they draw the attention of Aussies, so one gets up and approaches them.

"G'DAY mates, where you blokes from?"

"Saskatoon, Saskatchewan" one of them answers.

"Oh, alright. " replies the Aussie as he returns to his table.

"So where are they from mate?" His friend asks.

"Don't know, they don't speak English."

Some of those wooden shacks right outside downtown look like they probably don't even have electricity, no kidding!

Unrealistic! Why would they go that far, when they have Maple Creek right on their doorstep?

The joke was awesome though!

^ what? My homemade Canadian troops/snow storm one wasn't? Seriously though, I thought that the Sudbury one was funny.
