Guest Taylor Hewitt Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 They do it every monday-friday in the summer time. I decided to go this morning. It's really amazing. If you're ever in Ottawa and you're staying you should check it out. It's at around 9:30am or 10:00am and goes on for like 20 or 30 minutes. I got a picture of a nice dog. Here I'll upload it. I'm uploading a small movie clip it's only about 10 megabites. I'll post the link later. Anyways they have muskets I think and a knife at the end. They change the old guard with the new guard and they check the guns to see if they are clean. Also they play instuments. Really nice. It looks like they are lacking balance when they walk. Looks like they are going to fall over. :) If you have any questions feel free to ask. This is a big part of Canada's history. I love my country.

Sui Generis Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 [COLOR=indigo]Wouldn't the "knife on the end" be called a bayonet? Or is that only an American term....*scratches his head* Anyways I've seen it once, it was rather interesting, I personally love anything that does with military. Everything is so clean, crisp, respectful, and to the point. No jumping around avoiding the question. Anyways cute dog! ^.^[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Taylor Hewitt Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 Nope it's not a pointed stick and it's not just American. An actual knife that is removable I think ;). Here's the movie.

BabyGirl Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 [color=deeppink]::huggles the dog and steals it, along with the woman's necklace:: I realized that I'm really ignorant about Canada. I don't really know anything about your history or what goes on up there. No big news seems to reach us about Canadian escapades or tragedies. Is your country really that peaceful? I've only ever been to Windsor for dinner...that's the extent of my Canadian experiences.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Taylor Hewitt Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 Canada is the best and biggest country in the world. By the way... if you watch the movie see if you can spot me ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows who Canada's first Prime Minister's was? --- P.S. if you look you can see the dog is wearing nail polish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circ Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 Taylor? As far as I remember, Russia remains the largest country in the world, However, Canada is no longer the coldest one, since Russia's southern parts are now independant countries :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Taylor Hewitt Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Wondershot [/i] [B]Hey, any of you ever been to Montreal? It's a cool place, no a lot of sightseeing, in my opinion, but the heart of the city is a great place to take a walk. It's a bit hot, given, but you can find almost anything downtown! Also, streetlights have almost no meaning to pedestrians, and it is one of the few places in Quebec where you can meet many english speaking folk. I go there whenever I want to buy an issue of Shonen Jump, or maybe a volume of manga. [/B][/QUOTE] This has nothing to do with this topic and therefore is a violation of the rules. Chapter 7 section 4 page 741 paragraph 4 line 8. "Thou shall not post something that has nothing to do with the topic or err or something like that wee lol what a funny commandment or such i think i will stop now" as told by the book of OB --- No didn't Russia split up?
