Do Canadians think the shape of Canada is sacred? |
Isn't it amazing how a country that nearly reaches the North Pole and connects Greenland and Alaska, that this same country?????
Gets so tiny and small at its Southern Most point, Pelee Point and a tiny piece of coastal land between Buffalo and Detroit?
So isn't Toronto-London-Windsor-Sarnia-Ottawa-tha... area-basically like the holy of holies of the land of Canada????
Canada is shaped in a very holy way where it's like Lower Ontario is to Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Galilee, Nazareth, Jericho.................as The whole of Canada is to the Universe. And so Toronto is the Jerusalem, the center of the Universe.
Am I right?> Additional Details The other big ironies about Canada.
The latitude of Paris, France is actually North of snow-covered Quebec City.
Name 1 major Canadian city East of Thunder Bay that is north of Parallel 49, Western Canada's border with USA (there isn't one)
-Equal latitude to Ottawa, Ontario (coldest national capital on earth) is Venice, Italy. Who knew that? Venice's climate is quite temperate and warm year-round. |

Ottawa the coldest national capital on earth?
Naaaaaaaaaaaah. That has got to be one of the Scandinavian capitals, like Oslo, Norway.
And BTW, did you ever realize that the Southernmost point in Canada is farther south than the Northern limit of California? |

Uhm. No.
You must be from Toronto. They feel like they are the Centre of the Universe. |

LOL! I just saw the elephant. Never heard of that before.
And no, the shape of the geography is not sacred, Toronto is defiantly not the holy of holies. |

For me, not so much.
But we were taught, in school, that southwestern Ontario is kind of in the shape of an elephant, with Owen Sound being the anus. (I kid you not! It helps to figure out how to view the "elephant".) (And yes, people in Owen Sound are probably most aware of this bit of trivia.)
Here's a map: http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://www.2ontario.com/software/maps/airport2.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.2ontario.com/software/large_map.asp%3Fpic%3Dairport2&h=389&w=569&sz=40&tbnid=cEv4mwmB5OZktM::&tbnh=92&tbnw=134&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dmap%2Bof%2Bsouthern%2Bontario&hl=en&usg=__LZ_bH0y1oek7aAHEajQV8trxEmw=&ei=IqWRSbWdD5CCNeC5rPIL&sa=X&oi=image_result&resnum=7&ct=image&cd=1 ...now look for 'Owen Sound' to find the tail/anus, then figure out the elephant shape from there. :-) |

Well.. us Westerners always give them a hard time... so it wouldn't suprise us if they agreed with these statements ;) Ah I'm just kidding. I've never really thought of this before.
Your trivia is pretty crazy.. who would've known? Pelee Island is on the same latitude as Northern California.... crazy. That also means that Detroit is only a bit North of that latitude.
Most people don't realize that the majority of Canadians actually live South of the 49th parallel. The majority live South of Seattle.... weird isn't it?
OH yeah for some reason Yahoo doesn't let me email anyone. Are you from Cali or what man? Becuase I'm going there next week so let me know. |
