How can you be all of the above? Nationality is what country you were born in. And or live in.

Anonymoose

My ancestoral origins is from Morocco, I put middle eastern because that was the one that fit, you should put Arab that would be better. :bigthumbup:

You guys are stupid.

There is only 10 options for a poll, I tried to make it as general as possible.

Think about it. By putting Middle Eastern, those nationalities (while not fair to group them all) where lumped into one. Jeeze. Likewise, with those of Black heritage, there are many different types of Africian Americans but I can't put them all up on one poll. Finally, the same applies to spanish, that is in order to lump all spanish/italians/latins into one. Give me a break. Same applies with Asian.

Putting Canadian is way to general for the poll, so to get a better mix of answers, I put Europeans, so I tried to add as many European nationalities that were more common.

Next time, if I do a poll like this it'll be. What are you:

White
Black
Yellow
Brown
Misc.

Because you guys are too picky! :P

BlueTurboEGG
I'd hate to fall under "misc."

Its way to general to put Canadian in? Did you know that the great majority of people here were born in Canada or have citizenship? I was born in Canada therefore my nationality is Canadian! How can my nationality be anything eles if I was born in Canada?

I think what you are trying to get at is peoples heritages, like where my great, great, great, great gradparants came from. Which really doesn't affect me except maybe the color of my skin.

The Wask is right. you should have just put, "what is your ethnic background"
Im straight up canadian, like 3 or 4th gen. But I can trace relatives back to ukraine, and nova scotia. doesnt mean im ukrainian tho.
im just a PROUD CANADIAN!

TheWask
... edit

badger
yeah yeah, I know we are all "proud Canadians", and maybe "nationalities" was the wrong word, so shoot me.

I simply wanted to get to see what kind of diversity we have on this board, for godsakes. I happen to think that enthicity is a pretty interesting topic!

Jeeze, is everyone on thier cycle right now?

SlowAzzPorsche911T

Thanks you Wask for your proper definition, and badger I hope you're taking notes, since either you failed the schol system or it has failed you. Proud to be Canadian. We do things like they do in Canada. Freedom!!
