"We do business and diplomacy quite well with almost all Canadians. There is at least on exception, though. Every barrel has at least one rotten apple. Funny that it should be called "Solon", though."

Here in my village in Kanata we developed a super-sonic military jet fighter that was scrapped because "Solon" and his cronies elected the wrong government. Here are some pictures and if they look similar to the Concorde and your U.S. Space Shuttle it is because our Canadian design team helped develop both after they were chased out of this country by Solon and his ilk.

"I consider the US very lucky to have Canada for one of its neighbors."

That is because we know in one afternoon of strategic air strikes the U.S. could knock out all our provincial and territorial capitals without ever crossing the 49th!

We'll behave, I promise.

Well, it calls itself Solon. We don't know what others call it, but almost certainly not that.
