it's a bird... it's a plane... it's a maple leaf!

This was a friends creative halloween character/costume. Super powers: fights crime, says "eh" and "aboot"

the canadian flash's arch-nemesis [mihali, Oct 04 2004]

Well, PeterSealy, perhaps you have never seen the Canadian Flash in full crime-fighting regalia: tasteful long-johns (long underwear) from the Sears Canada catalogue, flashy cape made from a flag supplied by Sheila Copps, mask which is really a snowmobiling balaclava from Canadian Tire, and Kodiaks (winter boots) from Workwear World.

Let's not forget his trusty sidekick, Maple Boy.

How is this different from Bob and Doug McKenzie?

I thought this was about a dirty old mountie in a raincoat

Oh . . . I thought maybe this was a notion to move Macromedia from San Francisco to Vancouver BC

I think this Canadian Flash sounds really cool. What a great superhero and role model for kids. Not too violent but loaded with fun! I'm definately pro-maple leaf!

The Kodiak boots are key. Also, Canadian Flash has an unstoppable secret weapon: he throws rock hard pieroges!

I heard she uses maple syrup as a defense mechanism

No, maple syrup is a Canadian WMD, a Weapon of Mass Delectation. Mmmmmm ... maple syrup ...

Shouldn't Mable Syrup be his frail, old aunt who is constantly menaced by strange, mustachioed foreigners?

Deadly accurate with a slingshot armed with those leaf-shaped maple sugar candies. Confuses enemy by continually switching knife and fork hands while eating. Always apologetic and rarely decisive. Currently overwintering in Florida.
