C'est difficile d'être canadien.

My mom's magazines are usually floating around the house, and when I picked up one (Redbook or Better Homes and Gardens, I think) the other day and leafed through it I noticed a rather interesting legal note in the fine print of one of their contests. (My brother and I got a good laugh out of this.) The randomly-chosen winner of the contest would receive $5000--not bad, right? Ah, but there's a catch. An American winner would get the money scot-free, but a Canadian? No way. In the event the winner was a Canadian, she would have to answer a trivia question in a limited time frame without consulting other people or resources. Good luck.
