Might be decent for a few rolls of the eyes ...

 

It should be 'How lucky are we Canadians?'

 

Aren't Canadians the object in the sentence and thus 'us' is correct.

 

That and do you really want me following you around editing your posts?

 

I was just joshing you a little, but you can follow me around editing my posts if you would like.
The verb 'to be' in the sentence doesn't take an object. It takes a predicate nominative, which would follow/match the subject.
Think of it this way: Take the word 'Canadians' out.
Anyway, I'm sorry if I ticked you off. I was really just kidding around.

 

Arrr... me first mate was Canadian but when I mention that t' people - they start t' think we be married. They be thinkin' we like it in the dungbie. (Do Canadians as a whole like it in the dungbie?)

Arrrr... not that thar's anythin' wrong with that

 

It's all right. But I did notice you like to end sentences with prepositions. Ugh.

 

It figures.

Someone from Calgary doesn't know basic grammar.

 

Umm ... ZING! ... I think. :-\

 

What would Flipper think of this flirting?

 

I'm not from Calgary. I just live here.

 

I do some times. It has never been a practice of which I'm fond, but sometimes it's the clearest way to communicate. There are times when I don't think it's worth torturing the sentence structure and losing clarity in order to avoid a preposition at the end of a sentence.
But most often, I'm not a fan of ending a sentence with a preposition.
