Garry...what's your point?
I'll bet an equal percentage of Canadians can't sing the words to the "new" "Oh, Canada". Damned if I can...and damned if I'm gonna learn the "new" words.

Both countries do a poor job of making history interesting enough for students to remember once the student gets through their next recess. Jay Leno does a segment where he steps out into the street and asks the simplest questions of passers-by. The nonsensical answers provide a good laugh for his audience. I'd like to stand outside a Canadian University and ask these simple questions: Q: Who was Canada's 2nd Prime Minister? A: No, not John Adams Q: Who was Canada's Prime Minister during WWII? A: No, not Roosevelt. Q: When was the October Crisis? A: No, the year, not the month! Q: When was the war of 1812? A: Correct!
