Welcome everyone to the new unofficial Miss Teen USA message board. This board was created for the civil pageant dicussion on the Miss Teen USA pageant and the delegates who competed in this system, both past and present. Civil discussion and constructive criticism is welcome, but negative, mean-spirited criticism, bashing, imappropiate posts, name-calling on people or the delegates and making downright mean and nasty remarks will not be tolerated in this forum, and if continued will be grounds for banishment.
Remember that these are Teens and keep the discussions civil. Enjoy your stay at the new Miss Teen USA messsageboard (unofficial)

Date Posted: 21:08:43 07/23/08 Wed anada is a land of many cultures and many peoples. Aboriginal peoples have occupied the territory now called Canada for several thousands of years. Everybody else, either by birth or by descent, has been an immigrant - we have all come from somewhere else. It has been said that Canada is a "nation of immigrants."There are three main groups of Aboriginal peoples in Canada: the First Nations, the Inuit and the Métis. There are more than 50 different languages spoken by Canada's Aboriginal peoples, most of which are spoken only in Canada. In fact, the name "Canada" may have come from the word "Kanata," which means a settlement in the language of the Huron-Iroquois First Nations peoples. As a country, Canada came into being on July 1, 1867. This event is known as "Confederation." Before 1867, the French arrived first, then the British. Each brought their own language, system of government, laws and culture. In 1763, after a long war between the British and the French, all of Canada came under British rule and was known as "British North America." In the late 18th and into the 19th century, during and after the time of the American Revolution, many African-Americans and United Empire Loyalists fled the United States for Canada, where British ties remained and slavery had been abolished. During the mid- to late 19th and early 20th century, waves of immigrants arrived from Europe, attracted by the opportunity of a new and better life in Canada. Some settled in towns and cities; others worked in factories, mines and lumber camps. Many were farmers who turned the Prairie region into wheat fields. Asian immigrants from China, Japan and India settled mainly in the western provinces during this time. Many immigrants helped build Canada's national railways, which joined the east and west coasts and opened up the interior for settlement. After both world wars, thousands of Europeans came to Canada as immigrants and refugees and helped build Canada's post-war economy. Over the last 50 years, people from all over the globe have sought a better life or have sought refuge in Canada, fleeing civil wars, political unrest and natural disasters. Canada still needs the skills, talents and enthusiasm of newcomers to build our country, together with those who have come before them. All of this has been reflected in Canada's immigration and refugee policies. Today, Canada is home to immigrants from more than 240 countries. Most newcomers decide to become citizens of Canada, after they are settled and have met the requirements of Canadian citizenship. visit: http://settlement_in_canada.sitesled.com/history.htm [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 19:11:12 07/23/08 Wed Lining up or queuing: People normally line up or queue according to the principle of "first-come, first-served." They will be angry if you push ahead in a lineup instead of waiting your turn. Not smoking in private homes: Most Canadians do not smoke. When you are in people's homes, you should always ask their permission to smoke. If they do not smoke themselves, they may ask you to go outside to smoke. Being on time: You should always arrive on time - at school, at work and for any meeting. People who are often late may be fired from their jobs or suspended from school. Many Canadians will not wait more than 10 or 15 minutes for someone who has a business meeting. For social events, people expect that you will arrive within half an hour of the stated time. Respect for the environment: Canadians respect the natural environment and expect people to avoid littering (dropping waste paper and other garbage on the street or throwing it out of your car). They expect you to hold on to your garbage until you can find a proper garbage can. Bargaining: Bargaining for a better price is not common in Canada, but there are some exceptions. For example, almost everyone bargains for a better price when buying a car or a house, or other expensive items such as furniture. People who sell things privately may also bargain. Smart shopping: Stores compete with one another to attract customers, so it is wise to check and compare prices at different stores before you buy. Note: The price marked on goods in stores does not usually include the federal and provincial sales taxes, which add from 7 percent to 15 percent to the cost of an item, depending on the province in which you buy it. visit: http://settlement_in_canada.sitesled.com/impsocial.htm [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

| Subject: It is hard to get behind an organization that is only a large 'beauty' pageant. There are obviously no standards or guidelines for contestants. You lose sponsors when people are embarassed to be associated with your organization. And you also lose viewers when your contestants are permited to break the law, abuse alochol, use drugs and / or arrested for shoplifting. If you read the boards you see some of these issues and it is no problem (especially in some states). The Miss Teen USA system offers many opportunites to their contestants -- it seems that some respect should be shown by contestants and their parents. I guess that if it is ok for Britney Spears and Lindsey Lohan than mus be acceptable for Miss Teen USA. In our state it went before state representatives last year to recognize MRO as the offical organization. | |

Date Posted: 15:35:10 07/22/08 Tue So here you go, bringing all this up over again! One of the problems, however, is that anyone can come on the boards and say whatever they please, truth or not, and convince some to believe it. What little girls in high school gossip about is another story. I was one of those people and even posted a couple of "outraged, negative" remarks, of which I am now ashamed of doing. Here is the reason why. I was almost convinced, and I say almost. However, over the past several weeks, even months, it has become increasingly apparent that there is a personal vendetta going on to the point of being obsessive, all in the guise of morality. If anyone wants to state an opinion and discuss it, fine. Then MOVE ON, for heavens sake!!!!!!!!!!!. But it is to the point of being posted OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER with absolutely no proof. It is as if posting it over and over and over will somehow make it seem like the truth. It does not. Just the opposite. It makes it seem like a desperate attempt by a desperate person. Therefore I do not believe you anymore, and before you jump back on and accuse me of being family, which you do with anyone who posts a different opinion than yours, you can support anyone you choose, but your tactics have backfired. Time to move on. Let it go. Be happy the pageant is in the Bahamas so you will not have to suffer through the torture of watching. To quote Shakespeare "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." Meaning there is obviously an jealous, obsessive, and underlying agenda and purpose with you, again, all in the guise of morality. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

| Subject: OMG -- Nobody cares what she did in the past -- it does not matter. She is going to the Bahamas in August and has an EXCELLENT chance of winning the Miss Teen USA crown. She was a minor with the shoplifting, she only held a glass at Mardi Gras when she got the MIP and then the criminal trespassing was a joke because she was just swimming with a group of friends at someone's house (they were out of town -- it will probably be dropped). All teenagers get into trouble and make mistakes -- this is just made a big deal because people are jealous of Lindsey. She is making something out of her life and their are some girls that are just jealous. | |
