are those things that are protruding out her majesty's nipples?

yeah i saw him in gastown sunday waving

y are they here.... never saw a totem pole?

Is this why there was this huge police escort going down kingsway last week?
or did they just come?

Jap ppl are so polite :)
I don't think her nipples are that pointy... but it does look strange

is that her wig?

i dont think those two have ever frowned or have gotten upset in their life
amazing

wow, i saw 2 of these jets at yvr this weekend. i thought they must be jal, but i didn't remember them looking like that. i guess they're government, or royalty jets?

are you shitting me man? he lived through japan's defeat of WWII. that's something to frown about. now i'm not trying to bring back the past or whatever..... but hell, its time to move past it.

they were also at the richmond oval took like 1hour to get out of the lot.

I don't think I've ever seen an Asian person with more slant eyes than these two members of the Japanese royalty in Canada.

Neat! I never knew they were coming.

That being said, we should be given Nissan GT-R's as war compensation. That or Japanese female slaves to make sushi for me til' my dying days.

im gonna ask him why my car doesnt have a sunroof and navi standard like it does in japan

(-____-).....

as long as the yen goes down......

woww that's an impressive motorcade.

too bad the emperor position has been pretty much obsolete for the past..100 years?

does our tax dollars go to providing the security detail for these "visits"
if so, that is a really big waste of tax money, why does the emperor/empress need such an intricate motorcade? not like anybody will try to assassinate them

I don't think thats the point. It seems to be a symbolic visit, and for furthering good relations between our two countries. Imagine if something DID happen, it might harm Canada's image. Better to be safe than sorry.

wow is that where u work? lucky... all i can see from my window is a dirty wall of an emergency power transformer bunker from mine :cry:

lol, yeah, the view is great at where i work at! always looking over the water + mountains

my previous job.. all i had was 4 dull grey walls and no windows, lol. a big change i must say!
