Canadians are such gentlemen. . .

Ouch. I understand your anger towards Serge, but is it necessary to attack the entire male gender of my
homeland ???


As I believe Pat has gone to her class reunion, we may never find out exactly what she meant.

But when I first read the statement, I interpreted it differently than you seem to.

Pat had just described all the perqs she received from NN, presumably Al and TM, including them picking her up in a helicopter so that she could avoid rush hour traffic.

It was in that context that I believed she was using the term, "Canadians are such gentlemen...". ... a sincere compliment to the Canadians and their hospitality that she had just described.

It seems that you suspect that the comment was directed to Serge's attack on Pat's character.

Knowing Pat, I would guess it's more likely to be the former than the latter.

In any case, it's unlikely to make any difference whatsoever to NN's fortunes.

Back to business,
Ian.
