Now why is it that Canada can't be better than the USA but it can be better than the Congo? INJUSTICE!

Lets try not to get into a debate over which country is the greatest, ok? -DSettahr

Usually we count from when Canada was officially created. It's not like we can just chose an arbitrary date [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Oh, hey. I'm 35, rather then 20, because I wanted to start counting from when man landed on the moon, rather then when I was born. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Yeah but countries don't just pop up on the map all the sudden.

First you had new france, then the british conquered it and it became the province of quebec (while some parts became part of modern day US), then it got split in two and became the high and the low canadas, then it became the dominion of canada, and full independance wasn't achieved until after the first world war... heck, 'kebec' was there before new france was founded - it was just populated by non-europeans!

So when do you start counting? From when a comitee decided on the name "canada" from a list of other possibilities? You can't really determine how old the country is, because it wasn't created in a day!

Seb's right Flex, we start counting from when the first four provinces signed the confederation.

I know, I'm just saying the number doesn't really mean anything - because there was something before that, and before that, and before that... Essentially we could've started counting from any of a number of different events.

I used to have a pair of teachers from Canadia. They were pretty good, but they had to bugger off back due to the end of their contract. They also brought in stuff for their groups on Canada day.
