Is Canada really all-that?
 

Inspired by an episode of The Simpsons I just decided to substitute part of the World Cup for tonight (S.30, E.21), I just got thinking about how Canada allegedly stacks up to the U.K. and (especially) the U.S.; (on that note) do you feel like Canada’s really the place to be or are you either okay where you are or more pro.-America?

politically, canada are a joke at the moment, but where isn't. Overall, Canada is a much better place to be than the USA

I do feel like Canada’s a little corny sometimes to be fair.

Canada is great it’s like the US but much safer. I was in Toronto recently, that city is really booming

I'm mixed between them all.

UK has Football, GTA, Walkers Crisps & Cadbury's. Oh and Coventry Blaze & Lewis Hamilton.

Canada has Ice Hockey, the BB that's on the best form, and SomeOrdinaryGamers who has some really interesting YouTube videos.

And America has Basketball, loads of Fast Food joints, and Batman.

Choices, choices.

Canadacunts

Canada seem to have lost the plot , I guess their healthcare is one of their better qualities.

Hamilton isn’t universally popular in England incidentally

How did you get the swear-filter to evade that without any special fonts?

Sorry to burst your bubble but G.T.A. is very much an American thing.

Incorrect, the original GTA was entirely the IP of DMA Design Limited, which was a games company founded and based in Dundee, Scotland. DMA was bought by Rockstar Games which is a US based company (now under also-US-based Take Two Interactive), and became Rockstar North, which has its headquarters in Edinburgh.

A lot (but not all) of the production of the newer GTA games takes place in the US mainly because the games are US-centric and they're also HUGE now so hundreds of people work on them. But up until, at the very least, the Vice City/San Andreas era you can see tonnes of British influence in the games, as they were still mainly done in-house with Rockstar North.

tl;dr it's owned by American parent companies but the original GTA IP is very much British (Scottish :hee: ) and a lot of the work on GTA to this day takes place at Rockstar North.

I thought so until I read up/saw documentaries regarding the treatment of their indigenous population. Scary corrupt.

Save the smarty-pants mantra directed at other posters for when we’ve decided who the heck you actually are.

The Simpsons made a little mention of that in the episode I watched (in as much as I dislike pretty-much everything from season 20 onwards it’s become a bit like Family Guy as far as undisguised, borderline-libellous political references go, sha) but generally I can’t imagine it being any worse than the treatment of Native Americans in the US. They’re marginalised so white.European-Americans can think of themselves as some sort of indigenous majority who the world more-or-less revolves around.

He is still ours regardless.

And unlike the England Football team, he can actually win Championships which I can appreciate.:laugh:

Rockstar is a UK company, so it's a UK thing.

Even if admittedly it's based off of American culture.

Edit... To clarify, Rockstar/Take Two are based in America, but the creators of the company & GTA are English to be exact.

:joker:

Out of interest (and slightly off-topic), does anyone actually know how old Patty and Selma are supposed to be?

hideous woke enclave

49?

Pretty much.

Stacey Dooley did an eye opening documentary on it iirc.

Don't listen to Redway and his "I don't listen to people when they're right and I'm wrong because waaaaahhh" rhetoric; everything in my post was right :hmph:.

Rockstar is a US company. DMA design was a Scottish to be exact company (not English in the slightest) and became Rockstar North when it was bought by Rockstar. Rockstar North is still based in Scotland.

Ouch.
Get over yourself.

That article sounds like a Mr. Ballen YouTube video.:laugh:

But being serious that's terrible what happened to the girls.
