Wahahahahhahaaha I thought you ment Indian(as in next to pakistan, India), obviously you refering to Native Americans.

Many Americans have come to prefer Native American over Indian both as a term of respect and as a corrective to the famous misnomer bestowed on the peoples of the Americas by a geographically befuddled Columbus. There are solid arguments for this preference. Native American eliminates any confusion between indigenous American peoples and the inhabitants of India, making it the clear choice in many official contexts.

In socials I learned that Native Americans (or candians :? ) were talking to the explorers about their village, the word is canada, so Boom! There you have it. Canada is called canada. And a friend (unreliable) told me that the foam in the sea is various sea creature's sperm.

If I'm not mistaken the foam is just something that has to do with the salt in the sea water. I'm not sure but I think I got some kind of that bullshit in my geography classes whilst living on the island. I might be gracious enough to look it up. :P

The Native American word for village is "Kanata," which is the name of a small town near Ottawa. The British just changed it to Canada.

Thats is correct, 2 gold stars for you. The actual language is called Huron which is an Iroquoian language that belongs to the Cayuga, Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Seneca, Tuscarora, Erie and Wyandot.

Edit:...................and Cherokee!

Random fact: Slam Harder can't think of his own lines, so his comebacks are cheap ripoffs of people who owned him and who he thinks are retards. (What does that make him? When he rips off people he thinks are retards?)
