JUST WAIT AND SEE THEIR NEIGHBOURS

On the sixth day God turned to the Archangel Gabriel and said: "Today I am going to create a land called Canada. It will be a land of outstanding natural beauty. It shall have tall majestic mountains full of bears and eagles, beautifully sparkling lakes bountiful with trout, forests full of elk and moose, high cliffs overlooking sandy beaches with an abundance of sea life, and rivers stocked with salmon." God continued, "I shall make the land rich in oil so that the inhabitants will prosper. I shall call these inhabitants "Canadians", and they shall be known as the most friendly people on the earth."
     "But Lord," asked Gabriel, "don't you think you are being too generous to these Canadians?"
     "Not really," replied God. "Just wait and see the neighbors I'm going to give them.
