Forums - Nintendo - So I was browsing the Wii's News Channel...

...and I noticed an awesome error in one of the articles.

The Headline is "Canada could run a deficit of CA30B"

Here's the first paragraph--see if you can spot the funny:

 

TORONTO - Canada's prime minister said the country will likely run a deficit of as much as 30 billion Canadian dollars ($25 billion) as it tries to inject enough cash into the economy to end the recession.  (just wondering if we should say "end" the recession...maybe "to help lessen the fallout from the recession" or "the help lessen the impact from the recession?" "help stimulate the economy" but your call if you want to keep as is.)

 

Yeh, that's the first paragraph XD

Forgetting to edit out editting ftw!



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Let's see... The government is giving out $30B to a country of about 30M so that's $1,000 dollars for each of us. Great! Recession is over! End! Kaput!


Seriously though, yeah, odd wording.



 

The joke was that they actually left the remarks from the editor in there--that wasn't my commentary XD

Omg, that's really what the story was like? I wonder if it ran like that online, too! Hehe, that's really funny. What a cool editor.

Like your new avatar, by the way.
