Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was up to, he politely asked, “What are you up to there, Nancy?” “My goldfish died,” replied Nancy tearfully, without looking up, “and I’ve just buried him.” The neighbor was concerned, “That’s an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn’t it?” Nancy patted down the last heap o earth then replied, “That’s because he’s inside your cat.” —————————————————The original name for Canada, dreamed up by a parliamentary committee in London, was “Cold North Dominion,” but that was too long, so they abbreviated it C.N.D. The King’s Royal Governor presented the new name to the inhabitants, and they didn’t say a word. They just looked at him. “Well, what do you think?” asked the Royal Governor. “C.,eh?” said the first fellow. “N.,eh?” says the second guy. “D.,eh?” says the third one. Then silence. “Hey,” says the Governor. “I like that. It’s a lot easier to pronounce when you spell it that way.” So that’s how Canada got it’s name. page 3 ANSWERS ON PAGE 6 ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Fully equipped certified kitchen Can seat up to 135 people Wheelchair accessible Catering available for receptions Separate smaller meeting room for up to 25 people.

As part of his job he was required to stand by the terminal door and say goodbye to the passengers as they exited the airplane.

She slowly approached the pilot after most passengers had exited the plane and asked, “Did we land? Or were we shot down?” —————————————————Canadians don’t deal with the same kind of health care problems and traumas as in the US.

He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen. After several minutes, the older worker had had enough. “Why don’t you put your money where your mouth is?” he said. “I will bet you a week’s wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won’t be able to wheel back.” “You’re on, old man,” the braggart replied. “Let’s see what you got.” The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, “All right, get in.” —————————————————When you cross the border on your way south you can see an ad saying: “Welcome to the USA, we’ve got Bob Hope, Johnny Cash, and Stevie Wonder.” On your way back into Canada the sign reads, “Welcome to Canada, we have no Hope, no Cash….no Wonder.” ———————————————————————————————————————————- Happy Canada Day-July 1 Disclaimer: Un-credited stories are from a variety of sources and are believed to be public domain.
