Welcome my Canadian friends to the Team Canada Lounge. a place for us Canadians, Canadiens or Canadiennes, to rest ourselves after a long day of taking photos, sitting on the fence, and not being American :)(just joking my American friends... I'm sure secretly many of us envy you)

This thread is really to foster communication and friendship for the Canadian team for the DPC Olympics, but hey maybe it'll become more like an Oasis of sorts :)

So Welcome Team Canada!

Of course while this DPC Olympic team is set, if you're Canadian, you can always stay awhile and encourage, coach, or support our Photographic Athletes

ETA: so you don't have to go searching for it here's the link to the CURRENT STANDINGS SPREADSHEET

I'm surprised that you say that, I have a Canadian friend that sees no problem reminding me that Canada is in America, and that I am merely a citizen of the United States.

Sorry to interrupt your good time. Oops, look what happened:

Canada is in North America. When it comes to the USA, just remember, if this was prison.....we are bigger and we are on top...so in prison the Americans would be our Bitch!

Thanks for the hangout. Now when I get kicked out of the Suck Oasis I will still have somewhere to go.

I think you should have made Slippy the official mascot. That way, he'd ~~have to wear a mask~~ get to wear a realllly cool costume!

I got the rules and regs you sent on the 16th.

Are these the most recent with the exception of the change from 5 to 4 minimum entries?
