Not only did Canada send crews after 9/11, many Canadian
families opened their homes to stranded American passengers
after all America's planes were grounded.

Then there's the infamous "Canadian Caper", wherein the
Canadian Govt hid several American diplomats then smuggled them
out of Iran while The Ayatollah was trying add them to his list
of hostages. All this at the risk of losing their own lives,
of course.

Canada rocks.
