It seems to me that you’re providing proof that it wasn’t presented as fact.

[A Formerly Proud Canadian]

You want proof? What kind of proof?

As former Prime Minister of Canaduh, the Right Honourable (actually somewhat dishonourable) Jean Chretien once said,
"A proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof. And when you have a good proof, it's because it's proven."
