This mass influx of Canadian refugees only started after the NHL lockout happened. I'm assuming once the NHL gets back into action that the level of Canadians on the forums will mercifully return to "normal".....

It's mostly because, north of the border, winter is just plain colder. And Canadians like to complain about the weather. Combined, the average Canadian citizen becomes so depressed through the 7 months of winter that he or she tends to hibernate. And how does the modern Canadian achieve this state of suspended animation? He plays a Alpha Centauri PBEM with 7 of his closest friends, pushing dark and diabolical thoughts through his frosted-over brain and formulating elaborate schemes and plots during the long, frigid hours between turns. This continues, day after hellishly-cold day, until one player emerges victorious and, when the ice melts and the rivers swell with the blood of the animals that didn't make it before the air itself froze, he eats the frozen and eerily preserved remains of his defeated enemies, growing still stronger so that he might cut down even larger trees in the coming summer for the glory of the Great Canadian Empire.
And may God help you when the swarms of mosquitos and deer flies emerge from their loathsome lairs. God help us all.
It's really Synthetic God... I guess I didn't notice my own typo.

I'm american and proud of it. Just kidding, I'm actually ashamed of being an american. but hey, it's better than being a canadian.
How good there's always someone to blame for all the bad things.
I can imagine americans saying "blame Canada!" each time when something goes wrong.
And on the same a canadian looks at the smokey sky arriving from the South (where Chipits's industrial region lies) and shouts to the godfather above - "blame U.S.!"

No one else did, so I thought I might as well finally bring this to the table.
From Sout Park, Bigger, Longer, Uncut:
Sheila: Time's have changed
Our kids are kids are getting worse
They wont obey their parents
They just want to fart and curse!
Sharon: Should we blame the government?
Liane: Or blame society?
Dads: Or should we blame the images on TV?
Sheila: No, blame Canada
Everyone: Blame Canada
Sheila: With all their beady little eyes
And flappin heads so full of lies
Everyone: Blame Canada
Blame Canada
Sheila: We need to form a full assault
Everyone: It's Canadas fault!
Sharon: Don't blame me
For my son Stan
He saw the darn cartoon
And now he's off to join the Klan!
Liane: And my boy Eric once
Had my picture on his shelf
But now when I see him he tells me to **** myself!
Sheila: Well, blame Canada
Everyone: Blame Canada
It seems that everythings gone wrong
Since Canada came along
Everyone: Blame Canada
Blame Canada
Some Guy: There not even a real country anyway
Ms. McCormick: My son could've been a doctor or a lawyer it's true
Instead he burned up like a piggy on a barbecue
Everyone: Should we blame the matches?
Should we blame the fire?
Or the doctors who allowed him to expire?
Sheila: Heck no!
Everyone: Blame Canada
Blame Canada
Sheila: With all their hockey hubbabaloo
Liane: And that ***** Anne Murray too
Everyone: Blame Canada
Shame on Canada
The smut we must stop
The trash we must smash
Laughter and fun
must all be undone
We must blame them and cause a fuss
Before someone thinks of blaming uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuus
