    Well people have asked me: Is Canada a country? Is it always really cold where you live? Do you live in igloos? What is a toque? What providence do you live in? How far is one kilometer?
    trust me, I've been asked some freaking dumb questions, way more then this but this is just off the top of my head. I want to know what people have asked about your country that is just a dumb question.

    What do koalas taste like?
    Have you rode on a Kangaroo?

    I used to get mad when people made fun of America but then I remembered that there was mass hysteria when they stopped making twinkies.

    One time someone asked me what a Prime Minister is, asked me how much we paid for healthcare, asked me if I was an indian, asked me if I like american bacon (it's the same as canadian!!!!), asked me if we do actually say "eh" in every sentence, asked me if we have an accent,

    I seriously hate some other-country people. If you're going to ask a question do some research first.
