Montreal....

I arrived in Montreal today from Toronto. So far the Canadians have been customarily friendly and hospitable as I expected. Even though this is a commonwealth country and they speak French I have not felt judged or looked down upon. That could be because my respect for Celine Dion, Shania Twain, and Brian Adams is so transparent. I have secretly always wanted to be a Canadian recording artist. If everything goes well here and my agents do there job I will be well on my way to fulfilling my dreams. If that doesn't happen I will pursue my back-up plan, Governor General of Canada.
