    Hasn't Quebec been trying to achieve complete autonomy anyway?

    That's a very good question. They seem to be incredibly anal about the language, there was this story on the news about one Finnish ice hockey player being scolded by representatives of The Parti Québécois for not speaking French during interviews.

    The big difference is that the Us joes wear boots, and the Canadian ones wear Aboots...

    all four walmarts, for the individual carded figs, and Zellers for both the 2 packs and single carded figs. Since the comic packs are english only, Zellers is the only one able to cary them in canada

    Saw these at Wal-Mart but I'll have to check again.

    I live in Canada and I could have sworn that the cards had the art on them, I'll have to check again though but I could swear they looked just like the US cards.
