Re: see my previous post concerning US film inclusion of Horseshoe Falls in American film

I’ve decided, in my quest to reassert Canada’s claim to the Horseshoe Falls for Canada, to supply the State Department with a little map of the border between Canada and the USA.

I sincerely hope it helps identify where the border is.

I realise borders can be very pesky to you busy folks, but I can’t help but be terribly concerned you may miss a few errant Canadian beavers and other assorted other terrifying northern creatures that may be attempting to cross the border at the Falls, into the US.

I’ve included all pertinent information that may help the State Department in the future. Please feel free to download and print the handy map I have created for you. Seriously consider pinning the map to your cubicle walls if necessary. I know how hard it is to remember just where borders are. I mean, it’s not like the borders have been around for 200 years … oh wait … they have! Imagine that. Still, its an aweful lot to expect professionals to remember such an insignificant thing like a BORDER! Or say, where an entire foreign national treasure lies before laying claim to it.

I think you should try this piece of logic on Buckingham Palace and the Eiffel Tower. I’m sure the British and French would love to discuss “how proud America is to share” these national icons with you. Let me know what they say.

Please forward a copy of this to Disney. They seem to be stuck in fantasy land as well, when it comes to border recognition.
