I'm afraid you've only offered further support of the "Canadians are nice" theory. Only a Canadian would apologize for making fun of the stupidity of Americans and then offer chocolate as a sorry-present; hell, we make fun of our own stupidity all the time and we never say we're sorry. And - well, I hate to say this, but, um, Americans really are ignorant about Canada, and, um...hard truth coming up here...most of us aren't all that, um, embarrassed about it.

I'm sorry. But someone had to tell you, and it's better coming from a friend, right? And, really, deep down we love you guys. It's just the kind of love that, um, no, that sentence isn't going to end well. Let's just leave it with "really, deep down we love you guys."

But, hey, I had fantastic chocolate the last time I was in Montreal. So I will gladly accept your offer; pass that stuff on down.
