Is sunsporter1649 Really a Closet Canadian Snowbird?
Not that there's anything wrong with Canadians. My sister-in-law is a dual U.S.-Canadian citizen. And other than the United States, there would be no other country I'd rather call home.
What's with the "eh"? That's a very CANADIAN sounding attitude!
@sunsporter1649, it may seem now that your cover is blown. So you can come out of the closet. There's nothing to be ashamed of being a Canadian. Heck, @hippyjoe1955 is Canadian! He doesn't deny what he is. Neither should you. Sure, the Trumpets will say they feel betrayed, that you really aren't one of them, that you were a wolf in the fold of their flock of sheep. But embrace what you are!
This song dedication is for you!

@Thinkerbell east coast is more aboot...i'm west coast so i say it "ab out" like most people do unless one is from the south like texas.... but i don't know how to spell that 😂
Well, "aboot" seems more Scottish, so maybe that's how east coast Canadians say it. The Canadian who told me it was "aboat" was from Ontario, so perhaps by the time you get to the west coat of Canada, they know how to pronounce it correctly. 🤭
If we could actually hear him say "about," yeah, it probably would sound like "aboat."
And just last week he was posting happy birthday wishes to Canadians Sidney Crosby, Ken Dryden and Syl Apps.
Syl Apps! How many Americans would even know who Syl Apps is, let alone when his birthday is? Even those of us who follow hockey?
But a Canadian sure would, because Apps' dad also played hockey - for Toronto before, during and after World War II. Given @sunsporter1649's age, heck, he might have even saw Apps play at Maple Leafs Gardens!
