Loading ...One day, a Newfie, a Quebecer and an Albertan were walking down the street when they came across an old lamp.
The Newfie picked it up and gave it a good rub. Lo and behold, out popped a genie.
The genie said, “I’ve been imprisoned in that lamp for 2000 years and since you have released me, I will give each of you one wish.”
The Newfie thought about it for a minute and said, “Well, my granfather was a fisherman, my father was a fisherman and I’m a fisherman. I wish that waters off the coast of Newfoundland would be filled with fish so that my children and my children’s children will always have something to fish.”
“POOF!” says the genie, “Your wish is granted.”
The Quebecer has plenty of time to think and he says, “I am a proud Quebecer and I would like to preserve ‘da heritage of my people for all eternity. I would like a wall built around Quebec so dat nobody can get in and nobody can get out.”
“POOF!” says the genie, “Your wish is granted.”
The Albertan, knowing that it’s his turn, says to the genie, “Tell me a little more about this wall around Quebec.”
The genie replies, “Well, it’s 150 feet high, 40 feet thick and it’s air tight so that no one can get in or out.”
“In that case,” says the Albertan, “fill the inside with water.”
