The Mad Canadian

The Mad Canadian 09/24/2004 12:02 PM
A man and his rocket car. As documentaries enjoy an unprecedented level of popularity and financial success, it's high time that an obscure Canadian National Film Board doc from 1981 was (re)discovered. The story of Ken Carter, who spends several years and millions of dollars of other people's money in the single-minded pursuit of one goal: jumping a jet-powered car across the St. Lawrence River from Canada to the United States. What is it with Canadians and insane dreams?

Canadian M&Ms

Canadian M&Ms 03/24/2005 08:27 PM
Seems that Canadian collector’s are once more in for a treat, and I don’t mean because we’ll be eating more M&M’s in the next month than most people do in a lifetime. Unlike the American equivalents, It looks like we won’t have to go out to find all Seventy-six different packaging variations to get a complete set, at least judging by the lack of a ‘Collect All 76!’ type of message on the bags. Judging by image above that Canadian collector extraordinaire Scott Bradley sent us, our assortment also lacks the foil that makes the American counterpart shiny and desirable, but with the bilingual text and alternate character placement the Canadian M&M’s have their own reasons to shine!

Illegally imprison children for 13 years, make them do degrading things, deny them food to the point of degrading them further, force them as teenagers to wear diapers, tie them up, even give them mental problems! Get 9 months in a prison yourself. That's an expense rate of just about 17 : 1! Why not come to Canada and enjoy these exceedingly low rates today before they're gone?

It's cooler to be Canadian

It's cooler to be Canadian 03/11/2003 01:59 PM
McPaper, of all places, has an article about how American travelers in Europe are encountering strong anti-american sentiment. The article has some amazing quotes, like: If the past 100 years were widely considered the American Century, this new one is fast shaping up as the Anti-American Century.... A mother lode of goodwill fostered in the decades after the defeat of Nazi Germany has been reduced to dust in recent years. "Man, it was bad," says the Rat Pack-y star of Swingers. "These girls saw us and were kind of flirting, and they kept asking us if we were American. Finally we said, 'Yes,' and they just took off. " One girl turns and says, 'We were hoping you were Canadian.' Canadian? Since when was it cooler to be Canadian?" I can only hope that more Americans will travel overseas in the near future, so they will understand the price that we are paying for Bush's unilateralism and arrogance. The article concludes with: Tips for blending in Avoid American fast-food restaurants and chains. Keep discussions of politics to private places, not rowdy bars. Take a rain check on wearing clothes featuring American flags or sports team logos. Keep your passport out of sight. Soften your speech; Americans typically overshadow their hosts in the volume department. Via Boing Boing...

MP candidates on the "Canadian DMCA"

MP candidates on the "Canadian DMCA" 06/24/2004 09:39 AM
With the Canadian election coming up in four days, Ray called up all the candidates in his riding and asked them what they thought of the Canadian version of the DMCA:

What I believe needs to happen is the creation of a new "industry model", one that understands that all music, programs, books, etc, will be distributed over the internet. What this means is that a huge infrastructure of advertisors, retailers, wholesalers, etc, are going to wither away and have to find new ways of making a living. Instead, modern technology will allow consumers and artists to interact directly. Until industry realizes that this is the new "rules of the game", they will be in the situation of King Canut trying to order the tide to not come in. Part of this realization will be the understanding that consumers simply will not pay the same price for a book, music, etc, that they download and print themselves off the internet that they would have to pay if they went to a physical store and made a purchase. And why should they? They have removed almost all the "middle-men" who previously had to do work to get it into their hands.

Needless to say, with a variation such as this, many American collectors might end up interested in these figures just like they were with the Star Burst OTC figures. Thanks goes to Aaron from Toronto, who once more found a huge load of ROTS toys at his local Zellers.
