Yes, we are all quite proud of that "Canada Arm". Even if most of us don't know much what it does, we're told repeatedly it is verrry important and that it awes the boys and girls at NASA. I mean, any clumsy behemoth of a superpower can throw a big hunk of junk into space, but it takes a refined, clever people to craft the precision tools that let you actually do something when you get there, no? Still, after so many years of hearing about it on so many missions, it feels a bit like although we can't manage our own automotive industry, we're apparently the only country in the world that knows how to make steering wheels.
But that decal really is a little over the top. Honestly, we're getting as bad as you folks about flags and bunting.
