Nahh, he'd make up some lame excuse so he can retain his "mighty
America" view.  Hey, maybe I should tell him why the "White House" is
now called the "White House".  Many Americans (like him) shut right up
when they find out that Canadians burned it.  (America never screw
with us again >;).  Or maybe I should mention that Canada has the most
sophisticated satellite network in the world, the best nuclear reactors
(and safest), that many of the major discoveries in medicine were made 
by Canadians.  Or that Graham Bell was a Canadian. A lot of the
technology developed for the Shuttle was done by Canadians.  Y'think
that would be enough?  >;)  OH, YAH let us not forget the Canadian 
involvement in the development of the Hubble Space Telescope, the 
C.O.B.E satellite.  Man I could go on and on.
