On behalf of Canadians everywhere I'd like to offer an apology to the United States of America. We haven't been getting along very well recently and for that, I am truly sorry. I'm sorry we called George Bush a moron. He is a moron but, it wasn't nice of us to point it out. If it's any consolation, the fact that he's a moron shouldn't reflect poorly on the people of America. After all it's not like you actually elected him.

I'm sorry about our softwood lumber. Just because we have more trees than you doesn't give us the right to sell you lumber that's cheaper and better than your own.

I'm sorry we beat you in Olympic hockey. In our defense I guess our excuse would be that our team was much, much, much, much better than yours.

I'm sorry we burnt down your white house during the war of 1812. I notice you've rebuilt it! It's Very Nice.

I'm sorry about your beer. I know we had nothing to do with your beer but, we Feel your Pain.

I'm sorry about our waffling on Iraq. I mean, when you're going up against a crazed dictator, you wanna have your friends by your side. I realize it took more than two years before you guys pitched in against Hitler, but that was different. Everyone knew he had weapons.

And finally on behalf of all Canadians, I'm sorry that we're constantly apologizing for things in a passive-aggressive way which is really a thinly veiled criticism. I sincerely hope that you're not upset over this. We've seen what you do to countries you get upset with.

Thank you.

And, I'm REALLY sorry I lifted this and posted it here, but I thought it was funny.

Take care

Well done Hump!
You managed to apologize for every way in which Canada could possibly be interpreted as being superior to the U.S.

And all in under 300 words.
Canada must be so proud, eh!

About that bit about the beer....

Is mass produced Canadian beer any better than mass produced USA beer?

I've found it to be different in a fun and new way when I've travelled there, but better by leaps and bounds in some objective manner?

Hmmm.

I think I see the need for experimenting at R3W's place on 3/29 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

I'm sorry, but reading this touching post brought a tear to my eye. Yes, I was laughing that hard. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Again, I'm so sorry, eh.

Sincerely yours,

one question, me and my friends have always wondered how canadians say "shot-put" is it "shöt poot" or "shut pot"?
