Thank You Brother Craig

(clears throat)
Hey.
I"m not a lumberjack,
or a fur trader...
and I don"t live in an igloo
or eat blubber, or own a dogsled...
and I don"t know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,
although I"m certain they"re really, really nice.

I have a Prime Minister,
not a President.
I speak English and French, (Just for Paul)
NOT American.
and I pronouce it ABOUT,
NOT A BOOT.

I can proudly sew my country"s flag on my backpack.
I believe in peace keeping, NOT policing.
DIVERSITY, NOT assimilation,
AND THAT THE BEAVER IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE ANIMAL.
A TOQUE IS A HAT,
A CHESTERFIELD IS A COUCH,
AND IT IS PRONOUCED "ZED" NOT "ZEE", "ZED"!

CANADA IS THE SECOND LARGEST LANDMASS!
THE FIRST NATION OF HOCKEY!
AND THE BEST PART OF NORTH AMERICA!

MY NAME IS CRAIG!
AND I AM CANADIAN!


Red White and True....

Ok then, looks like everyone is getting ready for the tournament. I thought Id take this oppertunity to say what a great honour this will be. I realize that some of the other teams had some issues as well and its been difficult for everyone to make it this far. Those of you who know me or have been reading my posts will know the difficulties Team Canada has had in the past couple months. Team Canada wouldnt have been possable without APAT and more specifically Des Duffy"s help. I really appritiate it Des as do the other members of Team Canada. This wouldnt have been possable without your help so a big Thanks. I know that the goal of this tournament is to win, and that is definetly high in Team Canada"s to do list. However, what over shadows this is the oppertunitly to sit down at a poker table and represent my country against some of the best players that Amateur Poker has to offer. Ok, so without any further bs, Id like to wish all Teams good luck at the tournament, but the best of luck to Canada.

I must say that the dedication of my fellow members of team Canada has to be second to none. I will see you soon.

shopping list,

1 book for Paul (if dave ever gets back to me, he might be on vacation)
4 hats ( same as above)
1 case of beer ( only a canadian would consider making an international flight and bringing beer with them)
1 maple syrup (for my pal neil banks last time it broke on the headphones i sent him, oops)
1 good dose of fantastic team and country spirit.

I cant wait.

TY DES!

Let the games begin. Think twice about sucking out on me, cuz you will hear about it, in fact the whole room will. Gl all.
