Just wondering if there is anyone from Canada here?

Slap me twice and call me Jaques but I haven't actually seen any Canadians in here. Which is good and bad. I means that Mr. Fehr has quite the following and it means that he should have more acutal Canuck followers as well don't you think?

Anyway, if there are any Canucks in here, give a holla and say wuz up!

P.S. I was reading some of Mr. Fehr's posts and I think that he's a riot. He friggin' doesn't bullsh*t anything and he types like he speaks, at least I think he types like he speaks, I haven't actually had a conversation with him, that I remember, we kinda just sleep together... no talking really...

JUST KIDDING!!! For all of you who will bombard my e-mail, THAT WAS A JOKE!! HUMOUR PEOPLE...

Anyway, as a Canadian filmmaker (which means unfortunately, I'm probably going no where...) I support all Canadians in the film industry. Way to go Mr. Fehr, although my puny little civillian "way to go"is a little late coming.

Now, like the rest of the NHL season, I'm done.

See you on the flip side,

Do we not have a Canandian Embasy thread? I went back 3 pages and didn't see one. {course I've only had one cup of espresso this morning so far so don't hold me accountable}

Yes, we do have some Canadians. Heavy Medal Queen {HMQ} and MsGeorgeEads come to mind? Forgive any others I might not have mentioned {remember coffee deprived}

Go for it Cunucks!

I'm a Burnababy Though I currently live in the US, most of my family lives in Vancouver or on the Sunshine Coast.

How remiss of us! What, could it be because many of us are closet Canadians or Canadian wantabes?

Moon

Lisa I had actually remembered you then forgot while I was typing.....sad commentary for my brain

I am not Canadian, but from what I can tell, there are many Canadians in here. I could be wrong though, eh??? Also noticed many Christians as well which is refreshing I've only been to Canada once when I was a kid...Canadian side of the Niagra Falls...wooo hooo the excitement is just too much to handle, I know! But I do remember how friendly everyone was when we drove through some rural/residential areas of Canada. All the people that were working outside in the yard or on their houses would wave to us! It was awesome!! I had a freind graduate from Miguel in Quebec. I would love to visit Toronto some time in my life...but other than that...I am here in the desert of the Southwest!

Not that ANYONE even cares about any of this

Hey

I'm not Canadian but I guess I'm a closet wannabe? I love Canada. It's just such a great country and I'd love to live there when I'm older. As for film making, I'd like to think I'm a bit of a writer and because my imagination is so strong I could picture it like I was watching it. Directing inspires me coz I love all the ways you could make something look good, I love really good cinematography and am very critical when it comes to film. Hopefully once I've finally (being the key word there) finally landed a publishing deal I could have my book turned into a film but that's a little bit wishful thinking really

After recently returning from a trip to Canada I would like to say that I am definatly a Canadian wannabe...I even tried to talk me trip mates into turning around until we hit upstate new york...by then it was all over :'( Trying to talk others into a return trip though too much to see not enough time, Alli you should go see the Falls now, you're perception of them might have changed or not..but they are pretty cool as is Canada

...any other fun Canadian Travel Stories? Anyone ever meet a celeb there? Anyone ever travel there for the sole purpose of meeting Brendan?

canadian born and raised right here....windsor ontairo...

Canadian here as well, from Ontario

Bunch of the Fehrians met up in Peg couple of summers ago for a party. We had a blast

Really? How fun? Where was the party?

Hahaha, oh yeah. Teri and Anna found the weapons of mass destruction at the fireworks display.

and brendans with unmentionables on their heads we should do another one......oh Anna? Where is Anna these days?

Michelle~ I'm trying to get my family to do a Peg trip this summer. We have to find an english speaking country that's not hot and won't kill americans. Harder than it used to be. In the running currently, back to the UK, Canada and New Zeland

You can always come to Finland We don't kill americans and most of us speak English. The weather at the moment isn't hot at all (read:-12C~10F) and we have lots of snow. I can also be your tour guide if you decide to visit

Terhi

Any scandanavian country is pretty good at English - [except maybe Iceland -they still are pretty good - much better than my Icelandic though my kids picked up the lingo when we were there ] and the Netherlands speak better english than we do What about Ireland? Or the cornish coast?

Vin: You are always welcome here. I hope you come, I miss all my Fehrian friends! Last summer was rainy, so not sure what this years will be, I hope warm. I miss our warm summers, but not hot.

Who cannot forget the thong on Brendan's head. Those were some awesome times!

Canadian here! I'm from Manitoba, though. Brandon - about 2 hours west of the Peg, heh. Which is a pretty cool city by the way. I've been born and raised here, and may have even bumped into Brendan and not even have known it. Gah.

Yay for Canada - and for Manitobans like Brendan, heh.

[size=18]welcome man!

Michelle, Terhi, Sue Thanks! Y'all know how my family trips go?. We talk this crap to death. But they are raring somewhere cause of missing last summers trip so I could get Lance.

Aciel to the Sin Bin! It's BRENDAN not Brandon

Alli

Brandon is a city in Manitoba Canada (I think it's where she was saying she was from) Near where Brendan grew up in Winnipeg.

Yeah that has thrown me too a couple of times of late. I was talking to someone from there this past weekend too

lol, yeah. Brandon is the city I live in. Brendan is the hottie from Winnipeg. Both in Manitoba.

I'm not that wacky, heh!

here I am!!! I thought this was more of a thread for filmmakers, ( not homemakers, like myself ).

yeah so we have a Missaguaga one here, close to me, well 1 1/2 hours away from me.

Another poster from Brandon, M.B. yeah this is cool, finally there are more Canadians out there, or I mean for in here I mean!

Well I am interested in the film industry, but nope, I'm a "housecleaner", I don't make a heck of a lot of $, but it's more to get my butt out the door, & not have to watch my 2 cats fight, & the 4 walls behind them eh!

But You Know Jazz is also in the film industry, I think she does the "editing" in interviews of the "stars".
She lives in T.O. also,

Now it's been exactly 20 years that I have always wanted to live in Toronto, but like a fanatsy, it never , will come true, ( plus I refuse to work 2 crappy jobs, just to pay rent)

Okay I'll come in here more often then, check up on what's happening ect.

Representin' Brendan's hometown.

The snow is slowly starting to melt, I swear a snail can move faster than that. Us Manitoban's are desperately looking forward to spring and when the snow melts.

Vin, if you did come here when would it be? I'm going on vacation in July for a week. You should come in August at the beginning. Winnipeg has the "Folklorama" festival, celebrating the various cultures.

lol, so much for the snow melting in Manitoba. Pffft. It's freakin' stupid, I thought it was supposed to be spring - not 6 continuous months of snow *grumbles over snow and coldness* I need hockey to watch...

Hate to say it.... but it's sunny and warm here in AZ In the 70s today! I love it!!!!

How would one go about becoming an honorary Canuck?

lol, You'd have to be a Canadian citizen, obviously.

Canuck is to Canada like ... Yankee is to Americans

I think I walked by Brendan at the mall the other day, but I wasn't 100% sure if it was him. I was too pissed off to stop.

Dude! So lucky, lol. What were you so angry about, anyway? I would so turn around and check if it was him. What mall, by the way? (Polo's the best, lol)

I *seriously* have to get to the peg soon. I'm dying to go shopping, like, you won't believe. I finally have an excuse to go...in October, lol. Stupid neurologist appointment thing. Was like a 8 month waiting list, sheesh.

I mean, it's only 2 hours away, and I haven't gotten to go in over a year - and even then it's straight to the airport and outta there.

For the 6th time in a month my cell phone wasn't working. I was so upset.

Oh gosh, really? I have mine through MTS, never had any problems with it - then again it's like only 6 or 7 months old.

Oooh, guess what. Pretty sure I get to come into the Peg later this week - thursday, I think. Mwaha, shopping at last! Maybe I'll catch sight of Brendan somewhere - heh, doubtful. I can dream though!

Hey, newbie to the board, Canadian screenwriter living and writing full-time in L.A. Any Canadian filmmakers-in-Hollywood support/networking groups out there? Every ethnic/national group seems to support its own except for dour old friggin' Canucks! Are we too cold to be warm to each other? My best friend is Israeli and I have to admit I'm considering converting to Judaism just to take advantage of the networking! Either that or join AA. It's sad that drunks support each other better than Canadians do!

Cheers and only half-kidding,

Rob Tobin

The LDS faith seems to have the networking thing down too...don't wanna overlook them!

Well aren't most in AA Candian's though I mean I haven't meant one that hasn't known how to drink a few beers in their life There's the "kill two birds with one stone" concept at work...

raise the roof for huntington beach! that's where i want to live.

Hm. LDS. Is that like LSD? They both seem to have to do with halucinations, so I don't know, I get confused by all those letters: ADD, ADHD, LDS, JWs, DMV, whatever.

lol, I'm with scripts - so lost right now. AA is alcoholics anonymous, right? heh. What's LDS?

It's the acronym for Latter Day Saint's which is a form of Christianity in which it's NOT like LSD which is a form of drug but I can see where those two could be confused due to the fact that they both have something to do with halucinations (cute by the way Scripts )

Laguna is better

Ohhhh, Later Day Saint's - heard of that. I'm Agnostic though, not really into that whole thing, heh.

Isn't Laguna Beach that mtv show?, lol. I wanna go to California someday; sounds fun, but isn't it like extremely overpopulated? I would go crazy.

Curious...What makes one agnostic?



yes and MTV is crap No honestly do your mind good and NEVER EVER watch the crap MTV shows you

California is VERY over populated...and if you come here you are probably be guaranteed to NEVER leave It sucks you in and that’s it...End Story

I know I have been stuck here for 10+ years and I am still searching for an out I am just waiting for it to fall off into the ocean and I can live happily ever after in the Arizona Bay Tool had that song right

Laguna Beach is also a town. It's like an hour or so away from Huntington Beach. North of, right?

Laguna is actually south-east of Huntington. I LOVE Huntington. My wife and I have six homes, one of them in Malibu, and I prefer Huntington hands down even to Malibu. It's the best. Except for Telluride. I love Telluride even more.

I have always been fond of Laguna and Newport. Especially the Emerald Bay portion of Laguna. All the tiny shops and cute beach houses. There is also that cove right there where you can find shells and crabs. It's fun for my son who rarely can see those things up close.

Huntington was like my high school hangout spot and there are little police officers on 4-wheelers driving on the beach who are NOT fun

Santa Barbara and Malibu are wonderful, I am surprised you would pick Huntington over those spots. Other than that I love San Diego and those beaches especially Coronado Island, where the sand turns black in the sun. I onced hoped my boyfriend and I would marry on that beach that was until I realized I couldn't be married to him

I love Colorado as well... I like the Grand Mesa/Grand Junction area. I am considering moving there in a year and half and raise my son there. I have family in Denver and the Springs so it would be better for us rather than staying here where there is no family...

Means I don't have a specific religion, and that one doesn't accept nor deny the existence of god. There is no prove to say there is or is not. Kind of a controversal thing, I'd rather not get into.

Yes, I realize MTV is lame, lol. They had a MTV Canada going up here for a year or two, but they just recently cut it off the air because they realized its ratings were just crap, as were the shows they aired. I've just seen a lot of media hype about some show called Laguna Beach recently, and then there's the hype of The OC, etc.

California sure is well known for its beaches!

And a beach where the sand turns black with sun? Oh my gosh, that is the coolest thing ever! So weird, too. I've heard of volcanic beaches with black sand/ash/volcanic rock, but sand that changes colour is just awesome.

Are all these beaches down in the southern parts of Cali, like LA area, or are some of them up further North?

I'm afraid the Mod's will come in the and with my record I'll be asking for it

I'll PM you Aciel
