Easter in Canada

Three blondes died and found themselves standing  before St. Peter.

He told them that before they could enter the  Kingdom, they had to tell him what Easter  represented.

The first blonde, an American, said “Easter is a  holiday where they have a big feast and we give thanks and  eat turkey.”

St. Peter said, “Noooooo,” and he banished her  to Hell.

The second blonde, a Brit, said “Easter  is when we celebrate Jesus’ birth and exchange  gifts.”

St. Peter  said, “Noooooo,” and he  banished her to Hell.

The third blonde, a Canadian, said she knew what  Easter was, and  St. Peter said,”So, tell  me.”

She said, “Easter is a Christian holiday that  coincides with the Jewish festival of Passover.  Jesus  was having  Passover feast  with His disciples when He was betrayed by Judas, and  the Romans arrested Him. The Romans hung Him on the cross and eventually  He died. Then they buried Him in a tomb behind a very large  boulder…

St. Peter said, “Verrrrrry  good.”

Then the blonde continued, “…now, every year  the Jews roll away the boulder and Jesus comes out.  If he  sees his shadow, we have six more  weeks of hockey.”

St. Peter  fainted.
