I'm proud that a British magazine had pointed this out. I have noticed that Canadians do tend to exaggerate their country's place in the world and to over-elevate their country's stature in world affairs. You only have to start talking about WWII on here and it isn't long before a group of numpties try to convince me (but fail hugely to do so) that Canadians were at the forefront of every major battle of the conflict.

Nobody's trying to convince you of anything numbnuts. They are mocking you and your ridiculously over inflated sense of self-importance. You do get that you're little more than a joke to us, right?

It's actually the International Space Station's arm.

I am.

They are mocking you and your ridiculously over inflated sense of self-importance.

Since posting on this forum over the last ten years or so I've gradually learned that it's actually Canadians who have an over inflated sense of them and their country's importance in the world and that doctoring of that photo is further proof of that.

So then you don't get it. That's what I thought.

Speaking of people from countries who over-exaggerate their importance in the world. Your Empire is DEAD. Deal with it.

It's still the Canadarm, logo or not. Beats any contribution the Brits have made to space exploration.

Interesting, with the exception of GFPB nobody else seems disturbed by the pompous display of narcissism by the Canadian government on behalf of Canadians. And honestly I don't get it, Canadian inventions, innovations and actions speak for themselves.
