I did enjoy the CanCon. Though that chick from Canada in the Queen for a Day contest really pussied out.
I must admit, I am regretting my question in the Q&A session.
Nice dodge on the 1812 question, btw. It was sweet.
If I had to do it over again, I'd probably ask "Given both the ass-kicking the US got in the War of 1812 and the fact that Winnipeg lies at 49 degrees and 53 minutes, was Polk's fifty-four fourty or fight campaign jingoistic asshattery or a legitimate claim to territory that the US should have had?"
