Poutine is a French term for French fries in gravy.
That's French Fries with Cheese Curds smothered in Gravy. Sheesh!

And yes, that is fatal. And yes, it tastes good.

Why do Canadians care?
1> You are our neighbour. We get upsent when our neighbour isn't neighbourly.
2> If some terrorist blows up New York, Canada will get some fallout.
3> Your politicians play shell games with imports and exports in order to bribe constituates for votes. This causes economic damage, and it annoying.
4> Your government and corperations lobby for stupid things, like infinite-duration copywrite, or absurdly broad and generic patents, which distorts our political system.
5> Economic instability in the USA, due to Canada's massive-trade-nation status, and the size of our trading relationship, can cause damage to the Canadian economy.
6> Your constitution is a beautiful document, and many of the precipts upon which your government was built are laudable. The structure build up since is sometimes less so.
7> Many of your citizens are great people, who have done great things.
8> You can't spell colour or cheque.
