Canada is successful because of America, not because of Britain. Canada is just as much if not more a colony of America as it is of Britain, actually it was Americans that colonized most of western Canada and the prairies.

Iron Bru is basically the drink of trailer park trash.

The person comparing guns to Iron Bru at the end is an idiot, how does one have to do with the other? At least guns have some purpose, what purpose does Iron Bru serve???
We dont have trailer park trash in Scotland, nor do we have the obesity issues that the USA has.

People drink irn bru here but realise that its not a health tonic.

Canada should get their postal service sorted out before they worry about hyperactivity. People on ebay regularly dont ship to canada as its postal service is as bad as Italy. :nono:

I find Americans are a bit hit and miss. They are either really nice, down to earth, humble and polite Or they are.....well..... :umm2:

You think there were no natives in Canada?

Canada is successful because of Canada. I was clearly joking about the colonial thing.

Clearly Irn Bru is needed in North America to calm all this talk about the colonies down.

On a funnier note, one of my friends moved to Australia a couple of years ago and is now thinking of moving to Canada (he's more or less a Scottish Ben) and successfully applied for a visa whenever the applications opened recently but he's now genuinely thinking of not going because he won't be able to have any Irn Bru :joker:

lostalex 26-01-2014 02:07 PM
What does Irn Bru taste like anyway? It's orange right? It says in the article the reason it's banned is because of the food dye in it. But does it taste like orange soda?

It's coloured orange but it doesn't taste of oranges. I don't even really know what to compare it to, it really does just taste like fizzy sugar water.

If you are implying that Canada treated the American Indians any better than Americans did, you are wrong. The treatment of native people was just as bad in Canada as it was in America.

The treatment of the native people was horrible in all of the Americas, from the top of Canada all the way down to the bottom of Argentina.
