Heh heh heh... It would appear that you are starting to clue in. Now leave your soul for the metric system! Embrace the darkness which is the meter! Canada commands you!

No. First of all, that's not the drinking age in Quebec, and second, university students are pretty much always either 18 or older. Even if the drinking age in Quebec was 19, no 18 year old has any problem with getting a fake id. The reason high-schoolers go there is both because of it being one year lower, and because it's enforced so little.

Again, it's only 18 for you in manitoba, quebec, and a couple other provinces. The rest of Canada has 19 as the drinking age.

Also, that seems pretty spammy right there gascmark. You might want to be more careful about that.

Gascmark de Leone 02-26-2007 02:12 PM

Spammy? Me? Nah...

As for the drinking age in Quebec... faw! I don't get it! Americans can start voting at 18, when they are apparently capable of making rational decisions about politics, but they can't drink? Canadians get spoiled!

So I was caught trying to convince you all hideous lies. All part of the master plan of metric dominance.

Lord of Joshelplex 02-26-2007 05:22 PM

We no longer consider QB part of Canada, as they themselves sure dont.

Archibald 02-26-2007 05:26 PM

That makes absolutely no frikkin' sense!

It's because after they were beat, there was some discrimination against the french, so they still hold it against us like 200 years later, which means they get almost everything they want 'cause they complain

EX. "mon ami, we are been discriminated against, give us want we want (wine and smelly cheese)"

"Ok just quit butchering the english language"

To be honest, if I wanted a drink, I would fly to Germany, go see some of my kinsmen, and join them in drinking of good, homemade beer and other alcoholic drinks of German origin.

They use the metric system there, right?
