Was with a friend getting gas yesterday when the guys at the pump in front of us asked help because they couldn't get the pump working. My friend suggested maybe it wasn't working and then we saw their license plate... Canadians.
Things you'd say to help normal people...
1) Try your card again.
2) Press reset.
3) Maybe it's not working.
Things you need to say to Canadians...
1) You can't use your passport as a credit card.
2) You gotta flip the tank open.
3) Try hitting it with that hockey stick you're carrying.
4) You could get close enough if you'd take off the snowshoes.
5) You do know you'd get better milelage on the highway if you weren't riding a snowmobile, eh?
8) You need to push the lever up.
That last one was suggested by the lady next to them and worked.

A couple of your numbers got skipped:
6. Doesn't that horse that you Mounties ride run on hay?
7. Even though it's called a "pump", you don't have to actually "pump" the nozzle like when you want water back home.
James, I'm not sure why you think that Canada is in a time warp and is stuck in the 19th century. I think that the recurring seismic activity in your area is affecting your global perspective. That must be the reason, because I just cannot believe that you are one of those arrogant American types that the rest of the world loathes.
Eh?
