 <\/p>\n

One has to admire the ability of our neighbors to the North to adapt to what might seem like unfortunate conditions \u2013 like WINTER!<\/p>\n

But not only do they succeed, they do so with a great deal creativity and humor \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And when those Canuck scallywags get mischievous, they do so with a wink and a twinkle in their eye \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Some even display great talent \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But when Old Man Winter hits them with a wallop, they all pitch in to get the job done \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Although occasionally problems do crop up \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And when someone offers something for free, they\u2019re more than happy to take creative advantage of it \u2013 even if \u201cSome Assembly\u201d<\/em> is required \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But you can\u2019t always take their pronouncements literally \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And they will NOT let Winter cheat them out of their entitled summer fun \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s true that many Canucks love to hunt, their approach to our Second Amendment is delightfully unique \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thanks to our Canadian friends, who have shown they are more than adept at turning lemons into lemonade!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
