Honestly I know nothing about lacrosse. Lots of people play it though. I play baseball and I kinda want to play in college/university for it, but I doubt it

I'll second this. I play Baseball and Volleyball, and a bit of hockey (plus running and skiing), no lacrosse.

I'd say Basketball is probably the second most popular sport right now. I'm sure it used to be Baseball, though.

I mean McDonald's is also huge in Canada. These days it's 50/50 in Nova Scotia. Both drive throughs are lined up right to the road at every location

Have you heard Dawson Mercer speak? He's from Newfoundland and his accent is very unique.

Thanksgiving in October, laughing when Americans think 10 degrees above freezing is cold, laughing when Americans think freezing is cold, laughing when Americans think that 10 degrees below freezing is cold, supposedly the Governor General has more power then Prime Minister, has the most fresh water in the world, Vimy Ridge and Juno Beach, wearing poppies for Remembrance day, Quebec threatening to leave the confederacy every couple of decades, Poutine, everything has French on it because apparently there are people that actually speak French as a first language, and the McDonalds logo having a little red maple leaf in it, great big beautiful wilderness, Ryan Reynolds and Michael Buble.

In New Brunswick it’s half English half French. And a couple speak a broken mix of French and English called Chiac.
