You do?
I do, because the people from Winnipeg say that everything in Canada revolves around Winnipeg.
So Winnipeg is the center of Canada.
And as an American, I never would have believed it, but I kept finding myself in Winnipeg right up until...
Right about right up until the pandemic, when I got a call from Grand Chief Jerry Daniels, the the chief, the the grand chief of the First Nations people.
Oh.
Based in Winnipeg.
In Winnipeg, yes.
Yes.
So he came to visit me, and I gifted, on behalf of the Hudson Bay Company, the Hudson Bay store in downtown Winnipeg, that big building, which is now under construction to be a spectacular new First Nations building.
And by the way, it is because I kept finding myself there.
