For the past while world news has generated a mind altering state for many people. During visits to Vancouver homes for sale for pre-inspection or while working with buyers, encountered is a malaise of despair.
Doubt
The uncertainty of our time has crept into our lives. The worry over future events has stripped the joy from our lives. It seems that we are participants in a robbery where everyone is holding their hands high. It seemed sadly ironic for that which is being robbed nothing more than stuff.
The real materials of life, family, friends, health, relationships, spirituality and yes, even the air we breathe and the water we drink are still in place.
Laughter
An oft quoted statement is that laughter is the best medicine. While the following may not solve all your problems today, it might just put a smile on your face and help you think of sunnier days.

If your local Dairy Queen is closed from
September through May,
You may live in Canada .If someone in a Home Depot store
Offers you assistance and they don’t work there,
You may live in Canada .If you’ve worn shorts and a parka at the same time,
You may live in Canada .If you’ve had a lengthy telephone conversation
With someone who dialed a wrong number,
You may live in Canada .If ‘Vacation’ means going anywhere
South of Detroit for the weekend,
You may live in Canada .If you measure distance in hours,
You may live in Canada .If you know several people
Who have hit a deer more than once,
You may live in Canada .If you have switched from ‘heat’ to ‘A/C’
In the same day and back again,
You may live in Canada .If you can drive 90 km/hr through 2 feet of snow
During a raging blizzard without flinching,
You may live in Canada .If you install security lights on your house and garage,
But leave both unlocked,
You may live in Canada .If you carry jumpers in your car
And your wife knows how to use them,
You may live in Canada .If you design your kid’s Halloween costume
To fit over a snowsuit,
You may live in Canada .If the speed limit on the highway is 80 km —
You’re going 90 and everybody is passing you,
You may live in Canada .If driving is better in the winter
Because the potholes are filled with snow,
You may live in Canada .If you know all 4 seasons:
Almost winter, winter, still winter,
And road construction,
You may live in Canada .If you have more miles
On your snow blower than your car,
You may live in Canada .If you find 2 degrees ‘a little chilly’,
You may live in Canada .If you actually understand these jokes,
And forward them to all
Your Canadian friends & others,
You definitely live in Canada
One More
My personal favorite!
If you think it’s a good time to buy or sell Vancouver Real Estate.
You live in Canada.
Let’s have some fun and give Foxworthy a run for his money Canadian style.
Tell us what you think defines a Canadian.

LOL – and a funny one from Miami
….if you wear socks with sandals…..definitely from Canada!
If you’re in a race for the Gold medal at the Olympics and you slow up to let the guy behind you win the race, you’re definitely from Canada.
