George, the Cretan cook, was more animated than any other time in presenting his argument “Let me tell you stupid ass” he said addressing Tyson, “say you travelled abroad, anywhere on earth and you stopped someone and asked, if I mention to you the word Greece, you know the country in the Mediterranean, what comes to your mind? The person surely will answer, civilization, philosophy, Acropolis, and arts; then if you asked the person, if I mentioned to you the word Canada, you know the country in North America, what comes to your mind? The person surely will answer fast food, hockey and beer. That’s what you’re all about here in your Canada, moron, that’s your civilization and your arts, and your philosophy. That’s who you are.”

Tyson didn’t say a word; only he turned and like a dog with his tail between his legs he distanced himself from George, the Cretan cook.
