HAPPY CANADA DAY! TIME TO PARTY!!!
Friday’s Show was about throwing the ULTIMATE CANADA DAY PARTY! We pretended we had an American friend join us for the weekend, and they had never been to Canada before. So we spent the show talking about all the great things we would have to include in our “Ultimate Canadian Party” for our friend new to the “Great White North”. We would vote on Food, drink, desert and even what TV show we could watch and music we would listen to. On this page we list all the results from the compliation of all the votes and all the great things of Canada, refined to a simple handful. Here’s the results:
MUSIC! With so much great music in Canada we decided on three acts that would play during our Canada Day Party. Shania, Bryan and the band Nickelback.
TV-Next up was TV, and while shows like “The Beach Combers” and “The Littlest Hobo” were popular among the Sun Seekers, we settled on “Schitts Creek” as the show that took the traditions of SCTV and modernized the comedy for today’s audience.
BIG SCREEN-Two made in Manitoba Movies were the movie choices for our guest. “A Dog’s Purpose” was filmed entirely in Manitoba while “GOON” was mostly flimed in the province. While Dog’s Purpose was the better movie according to Sun Seekers, the hockey fighting movie provided more insight into the crazy hockey culture so many Canadians live for up here, so Goon was the movie choice.
COCKTAILS-Overwhelming vote for the Caesar. Invented and LOVED in Canada. With Pickle Juice please.
MAIN DISH-Another Overwhelming vote. Very easy to pick poutine, although Sun Seekers said it had to have bacon and the poutine made with HOME MADE Fries.

DESERT-It was a war between Nanaimo Bars and Butter tarts, but the BC treat squeaked out the win.
TREAT BAG for the after party: A goodie bag to take home would include Ketchup Chips, some Tim Horton’s Coffee, a Kinder Surprise, some Smarties and a Coffee Crisp all made it into the goodie bag to take home after our Canada Day Party!

We suspected it all along, but now we know it’s probably true. Aspratame it appears, is very bad for you. The World Health Organization has found aspartame a carcinogen after all, sources claim.
