American Buys Vancouver Apology Message Billboard

CTV News reports:

An American who is “distressed” by the way the United States government has been treating Canada, has bought advertising space in Vancouver to apologize to Canadians. Posters on lighted billboards near the Vancouver Art Gallery show the maple leaf, with the words, “Dear Canada, we are so very, very, very sorry.” It is signed, “Your American friends.”

No names of organizations or companies are included, and the U.S. citizen who bought the advertising space told CTV News that he wishes to remain anonymous to ensure the message is not about any one single person.

“I wanted to communicate to our besieged neighbours to the north how many Americans are pained by the economic damage done, and the disrespectful assaults on Canada’s sovereignty,” he said.
