Hi,

You are a Desi if you eagerly await the Child Tax Benefit Cheque each month.

You are a Desi if you drop off the Advt/Flyers/Spam Post at the mail box itself.

You are a Desi if you upgrade to ROGERS premium cable illegally.

You are a Desi if you pick up the Community Paper before buying any grocery item from the Store.

You are a Desi if you look around for job avenues paying you in Cash.

You are a Desi if you enjoy reading Community Papers which are nothing but copycat from national websites.

You are a Desi if you watch OMNI 2 movie every Saturday Sunday.

You are a Desi if you visit Gurudwara/Temples only for enjoying Langar etc.

You are a Desi when you enjoy knowing more about Politics way back home rather than Canada.

You are a Desi when you fabricate stories to claim Refugee status.

You are a Desi if you worry about the Dollar Exchange Rate during money transfers.

You are a Desi when you wait for hours altogether at eateries like Brar Sweets on the weekend to enjoy the Dinner.

You are a Desi when you frequently switch your Insurance Policies on cleverly motivated by close agent "friends".

Hope you enjoy !



Oh my my! now I am totally outcasted since I do not any of these things. Now will my folks back home, and even in Canada accept me as one of them?

Ha! Ha! Lord!! We are a creative lot!

but the best thing is that we can laugh at ourselves!

Hey O_N.. I have yet to experience all this as need to first land there. Once there I will write out a thesis on it!! yet,how about the beef outweighs all our Rajma, Dhokla,idli sambhar ,makki di roti aur sarson da saag, even rogan josh or muli ke parathe!!!!:D

Maybe they are sooooooo lonely that they like to hear the sound and feel happy that they have some company!

This is going beyond the bounds of absurdity so I better stop!

:D :D :D

We can translate it as SUSPENDED ANIMATION:D but nothing can beat the punch in the original proverb!

And it was naughty, mercury to use your hindi gyan against a senior:nono: acchi baat nahin:p
