I live a few blocks from Yonge & Bloor, and have not noticed anything. Nothing in the papers either that I have seen. Finding a Habs fan in Toronto is like trying to find a good bagel here. The real ones all come from Montreal anyway!

And we still blame Quebec for Celine ! Now she is Floridas to enjoy, as she just bought a big spread, in West Palm I believe.

I ran this through babblefish, and got "We are very sorry. It was not our intention to allow our borders to escape. It also irritates us. "

Eh...I've heard worse. From actual people, too.

The gist of it is: "We're very VERY sorry. We didn't mean for her to escape our borders. She drives us bonkers too."
