hey!

while looking for a link to link to for the Shuster awards I stumbled on your blog. I am Canadian!

I am a full on Canadian Citizen. Full on.

I was born abroad to Canadian parents who were going to school in the US, but I am 100% Canadian.

And proud of it.

I am actually French Canadian.

My apologies to Cecil Castellucci. I was misinformed and have been remiss in not contacting you directly.

I am amending the mention of your nationality.
