What Makes Canadians Proud?

The country that made Justin Bieber its prime minister has now brought us another pride-boosting activity. You might not have guessed it, but… it’s the ability to have sex in a canoe.

It’s news you can use. Brought to you by the New York Times, no less.

What more can you want for a lazy Saturday.

Here are some instructions:

“Three words: center of gravity,” says James Raffan, former executive director of the Canadian Canoe Museum in Peterborough, Ontario. To avoid capsizing, bodies should stay low in the hull, especially if you intend to make any lateral rocking movements. In a country with more than 60 percent of the world’s lakes, crisscrossed by untold rivers and streams, it’s no wonder that the ability to copulate while floating in a small boat has become a point of national pride. In 1973, the author and historian Pierre Berton was quoted as saying, “A Canadian is somebody who knows how to make love in a canoe.”

I will leave the rest to your imagination.

I guess, when your prime minister is Justin Bieber you find your pride where you can.

  2. If you haven't tried, you'd be surprised how difficult it actually is. But then I'm not Canadian.
