Why would anyone call that a peninsula? You know there's a thing called Canada right?
...
That isn't a peninsula, Canada just isn't on the map.

No one knows about Canada.

It's how we like it.

Well if "Yvonne of the Yukon" is a good source of education on these things (which I'm pretty sure it wasn't). Then it's pronounced "you-con".

It's pronounced "you con", after the famous words said by the first settlers when they discovered it was actually a hellish frozen wasteland instead of the Garden of Eden they had been promised.

Ah yeah, that's the one. It's amazing the different types of cartoons I experienced on Dutch TV.

Canadians have awesome tv shows. For example The Red Green Show and Stargate SG-1.

SG-1 was FILMED in Canada, Vancouver to be specific (the Hollywood of the North, it is, it is!) but I don't think it actually was Canadian. I might be wrong but I think most of the stars were American and the financing, producers, and directors were American workers.

It's actually a territory of Canada rather than a state. A territory is like a province except less bro. Do Canadian provinces have more autonomy than US states?

None of those arguments work because it just means you are a part of the conspiracy.

Not to mention they mostly consist of direct rebuttals based on uncited "evidence", most of which will be rejected out of hand by your opponent.
It's like a recipe for the Argument Clinic sketch from Monty Python.

"Yes it is."
"No it isn't!"

Territories have a "commissioner" and are basically federal areas, while provinces are more akin to States in that they have a more equal footing with the federal government. But the Feds over-rule provinces more-so than in the States.
