I guess it's better late than never but three years is a little long as President Bush thanked Canadians for their hospitality during the 9/11 crisis. You're welcome George, but I think that the people of Nova Scotia and the rest of Eastern Canada have felt the gratitude of the American people for some time now. Many a lifelong freindship was kindlled between the passengers of the grounded aircraft and their hosts who willingly opened their homes during those tense days. Regardless of any bureaucratic praise from the chief, I like to think that we Canadaians are just naturally hospitable and would have done the same for anybody.
