She has lived in Canada her whole life and is White. She asked me if it were possible to own a building without owning the land that the building was on and I explained how it is and that's how many properties on Indian land are setup. I then went in to say, it's not that common of a setup outside of Indian land as far as I know but apparently, it's fairly common in NYC according to Trump's book. She scowled almost immediately. "You read Trump's books?" I told her I did because I like to stay informed about things and it was actually a pretty good book that was written well before his political days that mostly focused on the real estate side. I told her I read Mark Carney's book also. "Who's that?" She replied. "You don't know who the Prime Minister of Canada is?" "I guess not because I don't know who that is" she replied.

And Canadians like to pretend they're more informed than Americans.
