Here's a recent cartoon (LA Times, Nov. 6, 1996). Sorry I can't 
draw the pictures:

US-based radio interviewer (a man): "So Janet... what do 
CANADIANS think about our elections?"

Canadian newspaperwoman (Janet): "YOUR ELECTIONS? It's all about 
YOU isn't it? Your elections... Your Olympics... Your apple 
pie... What about your largest trading partner? Canada is in 
danger of splitting up...

"And all you can talk about is YOU YOU YOU! What about me me ME? 
I've had enough! I WANT A DIVORCE!!"

Radio interviewer: "Is that ALLOWED in NAFTA?"

-- "Us & Them" by Wiley Miller and Susan Dewar.

I thought that "Us & Them" referred to men & women. But it also 
refers to USers and Canadians. It's the only cross-border cartoon 
strip I've seen. (Lynne Johnson's "For Better or For Worse" is 
purely Canadian.)

and now back to grading tests...

in pen-l solidarity,
