Whoa there, Arthur.  I don't think Alan was slamming Canadians or the
Canadian team.  He was just expressing disappointment that one of our
best players will be gone for awhile, at a time when he is really
needed.  We realize he is Canadian and our glad he is getting a chance to
play for his national team.  I would expect Alan would be even more
disappointed if Mike Knuble were to be away to play for a U.S. team.
