The World Series brought
Canadians together
Shouting weeping glaring
Screaming at our television set
Mommas, poppas, children
and others we’ve not met.

Newfies, Spuddiggers
Bluenosers, Herring Chokers
Maple syrupers, bagel makers
Prairie Dogs, Salmon bakers
and all those north
of everything else

It was better than a soap opera
Better than a political scrum
Better than a hockey game….
Oh, oh, ahem,
Please don’t hurt me
Canucks fans

Thank you, Blue Jays
Maybe next year!
