Because of the glorious power of the compound-complex sentence, I could easily and appallingly stretch this to a paragraph, but I'm so made of awesome, fiction, and ridiculousness (lists and parenthetical statements are also quite handy for this sort of exercise), I don't even have to.

As ever, LJ, thanks for playing!

I would agree, but I'm afraid my opinion would be largely uninformed, as I am Canadian. I'll trust that you are right, however, judging by what little of those speeches and anthem that I can remember offhand.

I'm from Alberta, citizen. I was just being a smart ass.

Sorry, I know very few Canadians on the internet. I wondered about the the Eh but I figured it was a different sound, hehe.

I think I know more people on LJ who'd like to be Canadian than people who actually are.

Not that the above aren't all elegantly, and movingly,
written. This was the period when English prose was at it's height. Y'know?

It`s all been downhill from my generation onward, that`s for sure. I remember life without the internet. Curse you, MSN and l33t-speak. *sigh*

(Not that I have anything against MSN so much as the horrible grammatical implications it`s brought upon society... *shakefist*)
