Showthers, It's actually Dave Thomas but I knew who you meant. Don't forget Jim Carrey or Eugene Levy! And Samantha Bee and Jason Jones from The Daily Show. Also John Belushi and Chevy Chase aren't Canadian as Tony was quick to point out. ^^; I don't know about the Krofft people.

Also, I claim Alexander Graham Bell and the invention of the telephone in the name of Canada. For the record. I don't care where he was born. >_>

I could've made an even longer list, but I think I got my point across. :halo:

Aw what does he know? They're as Canadian as Colin Mochrie is, and he was originally born in Scotland.

They were born in Quebec.

No but Colin is a citizen. Chevy Chase has NOTHING to do with Canada. Same with John Belushi! I don't know where you got that idea.

It was my understanding they became citizens much like Colin did.

But I guess not, since that's being contradicted by a Canadian.

Really? That rocks! Oh- and it's also awesome that your great-GREAT Aunt came from Melbourne, it's a great place- Aussie pride, indeed! :smile: :excited:
Yeah go Oz! But in Syd the "Aussie pride" Gangbashing crap is really stupid.All of the people in south west sydney get into race gangs and shoot each other. I mean, Aus is probably the most multicultural place on earth (We even have our own muppet!) so why can't we all get along. If I tried to put down all of the famous aussies it would take forever. Melbourne is a great place, it has so many good places to eat.

Woo! 100th Post on Muppet central!

If Beau gets to do that, I claim all Canadians! Which includes most male north american comedians, and female solo singers.
If Beau and Pep get to do that, I claim all Californians! XP *cheesy grin*

California's practically it's own country! :stick_out_tongue:

But then again, so's Texas. Heck, I understand if they wanted to, Texas COULD succeed from the United States... but if they do, they won't be allowed back into the Union. At least that's what I hear.

And just think of all the flags we'd have to alter!

Well, they might as well alter flags anyway, Puerto Rico's practically a state, ever notice how sometimes when you're signing up for something online, and they ask you to select the state you live in, sometimes, Puerto Rico's on the list?
