Go to England and see if your commanding view of language gets you far there. The second issue with the topic is we are Canadian, there is a plethora of diversity in this Country. Now many will say that you need to learn the methods of the country you live in, which is true to some point. Hopefully there aren't people like that when you travel abroad and are unfamiliar with the customs and language.

There were a lot of "you's" in there that are not directed at anyone. Speaking in generalities.
This thread is aimed towards those who dont know the easy stuff. such as the difference between your and you're. I doubt your instructor ever looked up something so basic

p.s. I'd like to break the 1000 post mark already
