OK, I am going to try to come up with 5 things off the top of my head that Charlatan has not already mentioned...

1. (to Nancy) Every member of the RCMP (the mounties) has been trained in Regina, Saskatchewan since their inception in the early 1900's.
2. Canada and the US have the longest undefended border in the world (the 45th Parallel).
3. Canada has North America's oldest street in Quebec City, PQ.
4. Our national animal is the beaver (seriously).
5. During the second world war the CDN goverment interred (locked up) almost every Canadian citizen of Japanese heritage. We're not really proud of that fact, but we're not afraid to admit our mistakes.

I did all this drunk and w/o google so I gladly invite any corrections.

**Edit...49th parallel---doh!**
