          Maybe the fault lies with Ms. McLaren. About seven out of the first ten hits on Google appear to consist of articles by fellow Canadians which comment on how annoying she is. Gavin Greig

                                        I can't see any reason why. Some people are very patriotic in that respect. In the recent census for the UK, there was a fuss over people putting their nationality as "Welsh" or "British", in my country. Both are valid. Simon "This is an equal opportunities airline.
