What is Great Canadian Promise?
1.
A broken promise
A promise that is full of shit
Instead of basic words of fond farewell, Canadians will promise something that is unlikely to happen as they don't know how to simply say goodbye.
"Great" is added to sound great just like the Great Canadian Bagel, great Canadian Super Store and all the other great Canadian stuff that isn't so fucking great after all!
I'll give you a call; we'll go for beers.
Let's do lunch.
We should get together sometime.
I'll talk to my buddy, he'll sort you out.
Yeah, I can fix your car; I'll come over on the weekend
They'll be here in a week to do the work.
All great examples of a Great Canadian Promise
