Now wait a minute here, eh!
How did we get drawn into this "ugly" mess of name call'in.
You would be cheap too if you had to pay $1.50 for one of our dollars.
I thought we were just listening to people talk about clay from what ever
prospective they choose.
I know it has been a hot summer, but lets "chill" out a little, EH!!!
Keep the 'Delete' button handy if you so choose.

....and I liked it when we Canadians were known for our peace keeping
missions. Foolish??? Proud to where the maple leaf!!!
