    "The thieves did not take away the 16,000 barrels; rather, they appeared to have been siphoned off." ...how long would it take to siphon 16,000 barrels of maple syrup? Drip....drip....drip........

    They'd better catch the thief and force him to say "sorry," eh?

    Apparently Canada has a "Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve" much like the US has a "Strategic Petroleum Reserve". True story.

    No hockey, someone stole our maple syrup, all of our oil and lumber is being exported. I think this is a full scale attack on Canada!

    Imagine Dave Foley removing a toque, looking off in the distance, saying a maple syrup pun, followed by some Rush song. #CSICanada
