I really don\'t know what it says about canada\'s self esteem to do a more-than-life-size golden idol... and of the Queen of all things!

Reminds me of the quip from House...
House tells Chase something about \"them Brits\".
Chase: \"I\'m not British, I\'m Austrialian.\"
House: \"You\'ve got the Queen on your money. You\'re British\"...

Canadians are quite funny about the way they show their self-esteem, I don\'t quite get it myself...
Just look at the movie \'souvenir from canada\'...
