The
Welcome
Mat
Out
HUNDRED
years
ago,
when
Canadians
heard
A'
that
the
Yankees
were
coming,
they
grabbed
he
old
musket
from
over
the
fireplace
and
made
eady
to
repel
the
invasion.
Now,
when
we
hear
that
our
neighbors
from
he
south
are
heading
in
our
direction,
we
drag
out
he
welcome
mat
and
hope
that
the
invasion
will
be
ong
and
mutually
profitable.
This
year,
according
to
word
from
Ottawa,
the
invasion
will
lie
the
greatest
yet.
