Gimp covered it. We have a peace keeping force. And we've participating in almost every major war in the last 100 years. We were involved in both World Wars long before the Americans were.

Haha. Those aren't really terms all Canadians use. Just me. Except I don't say eh. Most Canadians don't. That's just a silly sterotype. But hoy is mine. It's how I say hi. Do you know anyone else who says it?
I said "How's by you" once to an American online. I think it might have been Vampyr. It's just my crazy way of saying How are you doing. I was asked "Is that some crazy Canadian slang?" I laughed.
