On this day in 2003, shoddy American infrastructure caused a blackout across the Northeast. As Americans raced to perjure themselves blaming Canada for a calamity caused by the Americans themselves*, Canadians reacted as unruly mobs have through history when faced with a sudden and unexpected infrastructure collapse, which is to run out into the streets to direct traffic.


* See also the US custom of falsely blaming Canada for letting the 9/11 hijackers in the US. In defense of the people who claim this, many of them cannot tell truth from lies.

Moose can be surprisingly quiet. If not they wouldn't be allowed in the library.
