If I apologize can I become an honorary Canadian? Certainly! but you will also have to learn/do at least 4 of the following: 1-when and how to use the word "Eh" properly in a sentence 2-wear a toque 3-wear a flannel, red and black plaid shirt (preferably along with aforementioned toque) 4-order a double-double 5-learn the little wave when someone lets you into their lane in heavy traffic 'cause your lane is blocked 6-remember to say "Sorry, was I in your way?" if someone bumps into you 7-learn the correct storage, handling and opening of a milk bag 8-have Canadian Tire money stashed someplace-a drawer, purse, glove compartment, etc. 9-and last but not least, as soon as winter starts to set in, ask the first 5 people you see if it's cold enough for them. I propose a compromise: I have memorized "Canadian Please" from CC's video. Can I haz healthcare now? *gratuitous apology* Ps. Also can I substitute poutain for any of the above? I tried that several months ago!

A votre sante! I'll check out CC's video in the morning, can't remember if I've seen it before. I'm off for now it's almost 2 am. Why do I do this?

I've been to both Vancouver and Montreal and enjoyed both visits. But, $4.50 for a travel size package of Q-tips has me questioning whether or not I could ever afford to live there.

Panel and preview for S8. I skipped the 14 MINUTE preview cuz I don't want to be spoilered to that degree! Anyway, they don't give much away in the panel discussion. Just allude to some things vaguely. So the usual. In case anyone was interested, the video does confirm a few of our theories here. Plus, it features William/Julia being totes adorbs. Don't worry, that's all I'll say. SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I don't know the count for travel size but WalMart here has 500 for 3.28 or 375 for $2.68. Probably still more than you usually pay but yes in comparison our prices ARE generally higher here for most things (hence all the cross-border shopping) also currency conversion to factor in as well.

Healthcare is mine at last! *offloads some very large bills* Ps. Of course you've seen CC's video! It's my favorite, at the top of my buzzfeed list. www.buzzfeed.com/dashboard/squeegirl/secret-cult-of-murdoch-mysteries-revealed-in-fanvi-twst

Waaaa theory conforming and adorb-mongering? Why didn't someone tell me earlier? But I don't have time to watch an hour long video until later tonight. Ps. Were any of moi's theories confirmed?

Shouldn't we be able to discuss the specific spoilers we saw or thought were hinted at since this is the Season 8 Discussion Thread? Or do we need to start a separate thread for that?

It seems we don't - I'll create one in the News area and make it clear it can be spoilery.

As it was explained to me last year, this thread can have spoilers as its a S8 discussion thread. But even our discussion of what ifs and wishes and hopes for next season are considered spoilers for some people so they tend to not view this thread at all and just go into the episode threads as they come up on TV. But having said that, now that there has been a Teaser video out, we should give a SPOILER warning if we are going to discuss what we've seen so far or other such specifics.
