Grimes | Because Canadian English is so similar to American English (aside from a little pronunciation, usage of "U"s and the word "zed"), I tend to presume that everyone knows that when I exclude Americans, I'm excluding Canadians too. Obviously, I'm wrong and I apologize for impugning your Commonwealthiness. | |
