It was a remarkable day for Canada. For once in a long time, our nation’s pride was on full display ranging from the beauty of our historic parliamentary buildings to the beauty of a Canadian winter. Prime Minister Harper rose to the occasion, and made us proud via his words and his deportment. We were spoken to in a respectful tone, and respected for who we are as a people and a nation who’s identity is carved from merit and not childish anti-American sentimentality. We are Canadians, different from our southern friends, and distinguished in our very own special way. I believe this is the image that President Obama took with him as he left for home. Viva la Canada, libra!

That’s like, wrong. in four different languages. A record, I believe.
