I lived in Vancouver for 6 years, graduating from High School there. In fact, my Mom’s side of the family are all Canadian. My grandfather is a retired officer from the Canadian forces. I’m a huge fan of Canada and can still sing the anthem (in English, I forgot the French version). My mother is Quebecois, born and raised in Montreal.

I joke with my high school buddies that America couldn’t ask for a better toque than Canada!

Thanks for your thoughtful response… I never took it that way at all.
