There's an old joke: Poor Canada! She was supposed to have French culture, British government and American can-do; instead she got American culture, French government and British can-do.

"If anyone can refute me—show me I'm making a mistake or looking at things from the wrong perspective—I'll gladly change. It's the truth I'm after, and the truth never harmed anyone. What harms us is to persist in self-deceit and ignorance." —Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, Book VI

"Si l'on peut me démontrer que mes jugements et mes actes sont mauvais, et m'en convaincre, je changerai volontiers. Je cherche la vérité, et la vérité n'a jamais fait de mal à personne. Ce qui fait du mal, c'est de persister dans son erreur et dans son ignorance." —Pensées de Marc-Aurèle, Livre VI
