winter, and road work.

19. You know that when it's 25 degrees outside, it's a warm day.

21. You know how to pronounce and spell "Saskatchewan".

22. You perk up when you hear the theme song from 'Hockey Night in Canada'.

23. You are in grade 12, not the 12th grade.

24. "Eh?" is a very important part of your vocabulary, and is more polite
than, "Huh?"

25. You actually understand these jokes, and forward them to all of your
Canadian friends! Then you send them to your American friends just to
confuse them!

4. You drink Pop, not Soda.

You don't have to be Canadian to drink Pop not Soda.  Until I graduated from college and moved from Pittsburgh to Baltimore, what I drank was pop.  I didn't start drinking soda until I came here.

People in other parts of the country drink "Soda Pop," too.

I was NOT weird.  Back home, when I had a "soda," it was made with ice cream and either cola or some other carbonated beverage.  Unless it was root beer with the ice cream -- when it would than be a "float."  But soft drinks were either "coke" (regardless of the maker or flavor) or "pop."  I think it's the people East of the Allegheny mountains who are weird.
