Dearest Canadians,
Thanks for Letterkenny, your weed laws and Fat Burger.
I wonder if i could trouble you for a bit of insight, I'm currently working on a Spring campaign for a large company that operates across Canada. Are there any images that signify 'Spring' to Canadians? Here in the UK Chicks (baby chickens), Daffodils, Snowdrops, Bluebells are all common images associated with it but i'm unaware if these would translate to Canadians. Any insight would be welcome.
Thanks in advance.
- Maple syrup flowing starts in early spring. Pretty much very small town has a Maple syrup festival In March/AprilGnash
- the same symbols that you’ve listed already would be relevant here as wellGnash
- Icicles dripping, piles of cigarette butts and dog turds where snowbanks once stood, snow tires (or chains) coming off...i_monk
- Haha, that tooGnash
- i_monk has it right. You also know spring is around the corner when it’s too cold out for them, but the odd dipshit is wearing shorts anyway.ben_

- Denim on denim? Even Canadians don’t do thatGnash
- @Gnash. Tuxedo.DRIFTMONKEY
- where is the maple syrup?utopian
- Holy fuck, Drift, I stand corrected. I had no idea

- Lol I was just going to comment on the representation of the 3 quintessential Canadian looks esp the Canadian tuxedo_niko
- The only thing missing is one of them should be carrying a Scarborough suitcase lol_niko
- Omg. How have I missed all these? Please tell me a Scarbourough suitcase refers to a case of beerGnash
- Lol yup_niko
- Oh man, I know nothingGnash
- lolpango
- I hadn't heard of that one before.i_monk
- not enough beermonospaced
- Naw it's always been the Texan Tuxedo, there is zero alliteration in Canadian Tuxedo...robotron3k
- I'm from Scarborough, can confirm!spot13
- Here’s a classic reference https://m.youtube.co…_niko

Blackface hasn't done shit for Canada over the past 4 years. What makes you think he's going to do anything now?
Scheer was the best option for the country both socially and fiscally. He is a lot closer to the middle than past PC leaders. Just because he's conservative every likens him to Trump which couldn't be further from the truth.
- NYC? Really?ideaist
- I feel we're looking more and more like a 2 party system. Black. White.ideaist
- The middle is gone; politically, economically, etc.ideaist
- A Canadian can live in NYC last time I checked.MarleyMarl
- Canadians love USA, they very confident here cause they always have free stuff to fall back on if they can't make it here...robotron3k
- Scheer has zero experience... just a puppet of the petrol industry as Trudeau.Salarrue
- Never heard a single person liken Scheer to Trump. People do liken him to Stephen Harper though. You must be hearing this from Americans or something.T-Dawg
- and even then, he's harper light_niko
- I'm gay, tell me again how Scheer would be better for me than Trudeau.i_monk
- oh yeah Scheer... fuck the climate change y'all. No thanks, he's the worst option.Bennn
- Too early to judge Scheer, only 40 & his 1st election as leader. His party had a new leader in 2004 (also Lib minority) who 2 yrs later became PM for a decade.BustySaintClaire
- It's not too early to judge Scheer, his parliamentary record is 15 years long.i_monk
- Best option socially? Come again...
and best option fiscally? Prove that one out historically, what conservative ever set us up well for the long haul?ben_ - I didn’t vote for Trudeau or Scheer and I’m happy with a minority gov, JT is in check and on notice.ben_
- Harper and Mulroney, the last two Con PMs, have the worst post-war economic record. Scheer is Harper's man and would have joined him on that list.i_monk
- /\ exactly.ben_
- dude spoke at a rally with Faith fucking Goldy. He's courting people with the same racist agenda. Fuck him. Fuck everyone like him.exador1

We dodged a fucking bullet last night and ended up with the best possible outcome under FPTP: a minority government with NDP balancing things.
- Amen.
It's interesting in the 2019 world to see who's spouting conservative nonsense on social media instead of holding back...ideaist - 100%ben_
- and Bernier losing his seat.ben_
- I wonder if the Cons will start agitating for PR, given they got more votes but fewer seats.i_monk
- I have young family and friends who are spouting (conservative) rhetoric all over the place and it's kind of fucked up.ideaist
- NDP, Cons or the Bloc all have the balance of power. He'll deal with each according to his needs of the moment.zarkonite
- lol @ bernier...Salarrue
- A communist is never happy with opposing views.Hayoth
- Blackface /SNC Lavalin / Firing his best two females ministers / An Idiot Abroad!! Sorry - he’s a fool ....really hoped for changeStatic_Line
- Apparently Cdn QBN crew is all located in the east lolStatic_Line
- Or they're abroad. And this Canadian aboard voted NDP. Best possible outcome, as i_monk said.Continuity
- Anything but the ConsBennn
- Only Con voters gave a shit about Lavalin, and possibly only to convince themselves the problem didn't begin under Harper's watch.i_monk
- NDP are 4th place peripheral. 1 seat in Quebec, a critical region. Libs have 35. If Trudeau needs any support, it will be from exchange with the Bloc, 32 seats.BustySaintClaire
- Libs and NDP have more common ground in policy and urban demographics, and the NDP won't push for one province getting special treatment.i_monk
- *raises hand. west coast here.
i also thinks minority liberal is the best out come. Trudeau's an idiot, and does need to be put in check.pango - At least he's a well-meaning idiot and not malicious as the Cons have become.i_monk
- agreepango
- Amen.
