Do Canadians pronounce (I mean “pronoonce”) iPod “iPood”?
Once again us bozos in Quebec are excluded from a contest. Distinct they chant..Distinct!…Extinct is sounding more appropriate…
Socialists aren’t into contest giveaways unless they’re sponsored by the government, so that’s probably why they’re excluded there.
Why would a company called ‘United’ care to offer their contest to separatists??
