21. Cricket is grossly misunderstood by North Americans, who think it's a really boring sport with slightly dumb rules.

22. It's actually more stupid than boring. There's a fielding position called "Silly mid on."

23. Air travel doesn't have to be painful - just avoid US-based airlines. Note: Air Canada was recently voted best customer service in N.A.

25. Canadians are one of the World's highest Internet users per capita.

26. Bandwidth is comparatively cheap in Canada; 50GB access costs A LOT more in New Zealand.

27. Yes, I really do need to download that much XXX material in one month.
