Mr. President, Don't Leave Ottawa Without One of These


By Sniffles

Beaver tails, yum! Hot off the griddle, with cinnamon and a sprinkling of confectioners' sugar...

And while we're at it, would somebody please tell the members of the American press corps that if they address Stephen Harper directly, his correct title is simply "Prime Minister" — not "Mr." Prime Minister?

Thank you — merci!

UPDATE: YES!! The Ottawa Citizen reports that after leaving Parliament Hill today, President Obama made an unscheduled stop in the Byward Market, popped in at the (gigantic) U.S. Embassy there, and then swung by the capital's Queue de Castor shack (above) and bought a beaver tail for the road. Did we cats get this right, or didn't we?
