This is for all who land here, except Canadians. We already know what these mean, but I would like to know what you think they mean. I will post a few every few days and look forward to your answers.
I enjoy travel, sports, music and anything else that jumps up at me for the moment, which is why I blog. There will be lots of travel posts, pictures and our videos as well as a smattering of sports and humor. I enjoy promoting Canada and am unabashedly a proud Albertan

1) I refuse to Google …. 2) I admit knowing only one of them.
1 – it’s like ten-four, but since Canada has a smaller population, they only use two.
2 – Coins!
3 – Hat. It’s a French word. Canadians love the French.
4 – Klick – Distance. It’s also used in the military. Because everyone knows Canadians are warmongers.
Wow, I’ve spent half my life in Canada and only knew two of those. I guess I didn’t recognize two-four because I was only drinking age in Canada for two years, but Klick… what does that mean?
Hmmm never thought about how Klick was spelled before… I was confused until I read El Guapo’s answer #4 (that is after I stopped laughing about the 10-4 reference!)

Which one?
The Looney!
Named after the loon on one side of the coin. The toonie represents 2 dollars and we are waiting on a 5 dollar coin in the future. The finnie?
BTW …. announcing act 5’s theme of Time: The Musical in the upcoming Opinions in the Shorts (about 930 pm Eastern)
Perfect
I am Canadian (your neighbor to the north in Edmonton) & I know them all except Klick – did you mean Klik?
As in “How many klicks to Calgary”. Lol

They only get harder Dave. Stay tuned
Very good El G. 2.5 of four. Answers tomorrow.
2.5?? You aren’t giving him full points for the french hat!?? Harsh!
I deducted for the warmonger comment lol
oh nothing like a subjective marker!
Could be objective as well. I’ll bump him to 3 then
I am certain he will be pleased with that going into the tougher rounds!
Notice that it stumped a Canuck as well!!
