Canadiere er verdens flinkeste
Ny meningsmåling viser, at folk fra Canada viser alle andre baghjul, når det gælder venlighed. Australiere og spaniere er også populære.
Af Tommy Heisz

Canadiere er de flinkeste i verden.

Det viser det seneste Anholt Nation Brands Index – en meningsmåling foretaget af Simon Anholt, der udøver uafhængig rådgivningsvirksomhed for regeringer flere steder i verden.

26.000 mennesker i 35 forskellige lande er blevet spurgt, hvordan de oplever folk fra andre lande.

Og her er der bred enighed om, at canadierne bare er alle tiders.

På de næste pladser finder man australiere og spaniere.

Top 5 på Anholt Nation Brand Index: ser sådan ud

1. Canada

2. Australien

3. Spanien

4. New Zealand

5. Italien

Sisdte uge blev der forhindret et terrormål her i København, det er jo super at P.E.T. gør sit arbejde. Men jeg er så træt af den amerikaniserde udvikling i verden d.v.s. at krige, kæmpe, os imod dem osv. Det er jo mange flere facetter ex. hvorfår ikke få fat i de unge mennesker før det går så langt at de bliver hjernevasket af extremister. Dette er blevet påpeget af Manu Saren (Politiker i Det Radikale Venstre) hvor han påpeger at lærere, pædagoger og S.S.P. medarbejdere skal trænes i at kunne se fare signalerne og gøre noget forebyggende arbejde. Det er vist et projekt i Gladsxe som andre komuner skulle tage op.

My friend Jelena in Vancouver send me with this green soilder, and told me that i had to find a high place to let him jump. We flew together to Norway, because he wanted to jump from Holmekollen (Olympic ski jump place). But because of lack of time we didnt make it.

He chilled a little bit at a thea salong before his jump

Good bye Canada i will miss you

We went back to Vancouver on the thursday, we got to sit next to eachother, that was great but we had a nazti driver, so when we got to Vancouver very tired and with to much stuff, Ben was so sweat to pick us up, Chinatown adventure and a consert with Au Revoir Simone and a club afterwords with Jelena, Jonas, Christa and Joe. It was amzing consert but rather boring aerobicks music at the club. My last day i went to Bowen island by my self, but all my friends went tro the naked beach, i have to go there next time. Jelena made beautiful food for us, it was a little weird, because i knew i was leaving. Friday i shoped the last presents and went to Jelenas work, i was quite strong, but as i was carring my suitcases out and saying good bye to Nemo i started to cry. In the airplane the tairs kept on floating down, in my pillow and i was a big mess, i was sitting next to Penny that had it the same way, now in Heathrow on my way to Copenhagen.

Gardom Lake

On the 18 of agust i arrived to Salmon Arm and was picked up of Brian, Jelena and Tito the gigant black lab. It was so nice to see everybody again (last time was at Jelena and Jonas wedding) Bozenka, Gogi, Daniel and Thomas, then four dogs that lived there Tito, Omi, Mahra, Eppi and the gest dog Ellios. On the sunday we had a birthday party for Gabrielle we had a lot of magic and bounding, i will post some pictures of the magical night soon. On the monday Rhome, Isabel and Claire came with presents for all, it was fantastic to see thenm again after so long time, we had many adventures down to the lake and then they all auditioned for Jelenas film, we sat in a straight line, but one end of my chair is going down so i fall off and very ellegantly i grab Jelena so we ended up in human domino, very classy. I felt so welcomed and Bozenka (they all did) treated me like part of the family. And we got so much good food. The house is so beautiful with the families artwork all over. Then on thursday (21 of agust) we left for vancouver, had a very effective 30 min at the thrift store. Bozenka and Brian drove us to the bus stop, and then out of the blue came Daniel and Gogi to make sure that we got off all right after my dramatic fall on the stairs as we were leaving the house, me and Daniel tried to prevent that Tito got out , and he pushed me over and i lost my ballance, and according to the eye witnesses i took a 180 d turn in the air and rolled into a ball, i have a new nick name now

Calgary 14- 18 agust

The 15 hours journey went by pretty fast, the view over the Rockies was amazing, i have seen pictures but it just took my breath away,i wish that Greyhound had more comfortable seats, but it all was all good when i met my aunt that came and got me from the busstation. Had a lovely day lunch and Heritidge Park, simular to Arbaejarsafn, just more buisness. It was really interesting to find out about Alberta and Canadas history. We had dinner with Glen (Marges husbond) and Ingrid there daughter and her husbond Kurtis. Marge was pretty surpriced when she asked me were i wanted to go and i said Wall Mart and The Glenbow museum, we had limited time at the museum because of that little Wall Mart adventure. They had a exebtion about the natives, mavericks and much more, the Asian art was really beautiful. Ingrid og kurtis came over for dinner. On the friday did glen have the day off so we went on a field trip to Drumbattle and Dinasour Trail, but we hit a hole in the road pretty hard, so the car gave up, and when they called CBB to sen a truck to get the car and us, then their contrackt had run out the day before, but that wasen;t any problem with the friendly Canadiens. So most of the day was spendet in a car and on a corner of the highway and a little road. We had a barbeque Alberta style (cowboyland) baked potato, corn, steak and some more yummi food.Drew, Leanne, Maia, Brad, Elaine and Douglas, it was relly a joy get to know all this family members. I'llbetter try to explain how we are realated, my great grandfather Frimann had a brother named Magnus he moved to Canada and had four children Gudrun , Douglas mother, Sigfus Marge father and Ted that is Debbie father. There are much more of us but to keep it simple i only explainthe ones i met. On the saturday when i left Charlie and Melissa came with theyr 4 month old black labrador Toby for brunch. He reminded me a little of my brother Bragi. I was send with food and drink for my bus ride, but now it is only 8 hours drive, because i went to Salmon Arm. I sat next to a sweet and cleaver Eva, it is so important to have good company on your journeys,

Love from Canada


ps. my card finally arrived, but i just open it when i get back to Copenhagenb

Canda saturday the 11 - thuesday the 14 of agust

Chilled saturday with Sushi Yama (my landmark) along with the crew Chlsea and Jonas, then we went to the happy bat videorental, they didnt have cold feaver, but we rented The Green Buthers (danish black comedy), Pink Flamengo (Diviane, and moore interesting people) then Ilsa the harem keeper of the oil sheiks(number two in the trologi of a owful woman)

Sunday was started off by a greasy brekfast, that taste so bad, but there was way to long que at the nice breakfast places, The Ben, Jelena and me hooked up with Dianne (still Jelenas sister :) and saw some of the grand masters at the Vancouver art Gallery, my favoritte is the Dali. Then it was a lot of cool contemperary art, that inwolves some cool ideas, bats and other animals there was son swign about that it wasent allowed to take pictures, so i did, was careful not to use the flash, but then a security guide told me it wasent allowed, i had to stop. Then Ben, Jelena and me took Nemo to Trout Lake, were he could swim and play with other dogs. In the night we went to Snap Gallery (my favoritte so far in Van.) Cool art, dj's, cool music and visuals, i loved this venue. They had a fondraiser for a giant metalic, rideable spider, some students buildet, and they want to transport it to Burning Man, but the spider is due to preform in New York at the David Letterman show.0

it just antother manic monday, no it was quite chilled actually. Had a late breakfast with Jelena, then off to the preeschool, it was interesting to see that children are the same all over the world, social status, race and culture, i realize that i have only tried this around my profession in three country's now. But the methods are diffrent. I had a talk about that with a Jelena, and it seeems like there are very diffrent paths around peadagogik here then home in Dk and Is. Went with Jelena and Nemo (the black lab) to visit Ben at work, they make props for tv and movies and he was making a metalick hammer that is light as an fether.
Jelena had to go to work but me and Nemo got som park acktion and a long walk.

Thuesday is gonna be a chill day, maybe a little adventure in China Town, but i leave for Calgary at 6:40 pm with my first time trip in a Greyhound Bus, i will end up in Calgary 11:15 wedensday, were my aunt is picking me up and we go straight for lunch, I am looking forward to see my realatives for the first time.

The tax is kind of strange here, they have gst and pst that is around 6% and 7%, so then when you get something from a store and it cost 20$ then i stood there ready with a 20$ note, but it will be around 23 $,the reason is that the goverment is changing it all the time, so i quess it is better to count it afterworlds, goot hing that i wasent buying my ipod there.

The smell is to much now, i've had it with this garbage strike, since ive got here, and this beautiful green city is rather dirty.

Canada thursday and friday 09. - 10.08

Well we all went to the laundrymat with Chelsea and at one point Jay (her husband) joined us, had lunch at a Carebeean place with a stuffed lion, that is sepose to be a real one!!!! jonas cooked us some delisious indian food, and jelena had all this meatings, first with Jessica that Jelena is making props for and then Ben that is making props for Jelenas film.

Jelena, Chelsea and me went down town to hook up with Dianne (Jelenas sister that lives in Hawai, but comes here every summer), she lives near the beach and Stanley Park, so we sat there and chatted. went to a thrift store, but both Jelena and Dianne had to work, so me and Chelsea wandret around, found some lovely shoes from kennylovespennyshoes, leggins from american apparel and some presents. Well i better slow down with the shopping, because my danish creditcard hasent arrived yet, after the bank in Akureyri took it from me, said that i had done the pin wrong 3 times, but i only did it once, he right code. Went to a bar and had 2 drinks and dinner. Later Chelsea and me went to drum and bass night at the Met, and then on to Lick (lesbean club) were we met up with some of theit friends, but the music wasent electro as promissed, but a bad r and b and hiphop (like MWB on a really bad night)

I had planed a meating with a lokal C.S girl and antother C.Ser but the meating time had been changed, so i missed out on them, but hopefully we will have a coffie on monday, then i will visit a local preeschool for two hours, there is 20 kids from the age 3-5. But i will write more about that monday.

Have a lovely weekend

Thoughts about Canada

One of the things ive noticed is the fire hibrints beeg all blue & white and red & blue, they sell toiletpaper in singel roll wraped.

There is a big consitration of homeless people, and there is a pretty crappy social system, there are some shelters and places to get food, but far from enough. Close to the main street down town there is a street with poor people, some with abuse problems, and the goverment is squiling that people away, one of the reasons is that Vancouver is hosting the Olymics 2010. So they cant have all this people runnig around there.

You are not allowed to play a game of poker in a bar, beacuse then its gambling, but at the same time the goverment sells pool-tabs at the bar.

It was a shooting in Forune and Hapiness this morning, the place is just around the corner from were i am staying. Our friend went home around 3:30 and the shooting happent at 4:30, two persons died and 4 are in the hospital.

We were sepose to go to this naked beach to day (nudity is up to one self) But it is to cold, bur we will figure something out.

Canada day 5 & 6

The dinner at the Guu was amazing, specially the tuna sashimi and the salmon with tomat salsa. There are so many japaneese resturants here, love it.

7 of agust was the first rainy day here, so i chilled with Jelena and got a raport done for school. Then i went to the Biltmore to see Chelsea at work were she was exspirimenting with diffrent drinks, later at the liqouer store Chelsea got ided, so i said that i would buy it, then the woman wanted to see my id, and i only got one and here in Canada they have to see 2 id, so we werent abel to get it our selfs, but got someone to get it for us. Then we wached a dvd with Jonas, Elsa the she wolf of the ss, not for sensitive souls. Then Jelens finally got home and we hung out together.

The sun has returned, went with Jonas to a flea market, then walked around and went to lot of nice stores, got a vintage jacked that has never been used in pink, got some other stuff as well. I found the Icelandic flag in a second hand store, so now it work as a curtain, spended way to much money (but i like it :).
I've called my aunt in Calgary to day, and are going over to see her on the 15 of agust, she invited me to stay at there house, and will gather some more family members for a party, it will be so nice to get to know them all. Then on the 18 i wil go and hook up with Jelena and Nemo (the black Labrador) close to Salmonarm and there are we meting Jelenas family.
To night Chelsea and Ben are coming over for a dinner.
