BLESSED CANADA
> On the sixth day God turned to the Archangel Gabriel and said: "Today I am
> going to create a land calledCanada It will be a land of outstanding
> natural beauty. It shall have tall majestic mountains full of mountain
> goats, and eagles, beautiful sparkling lakes bountiful with bass and trout,
> forests full of elk and moose, high cliffs over-looking sandy beaches with
> an abundance of sea life, and rivers stocked with salmon."
> God continued, "I shall make the land rich in resources so as to make the
> inhabitants prosper, I shall call these inhabitants Canadians, and they
> shall be known as the most friendly people on the earth."
> "But Lord," asked Gabriel "don't you think you are being too generous to
> these Canadians?"

> "Not really," replied God "just wait and see the winters I am going to give
> them."
