The Eskimos Have A Word For Everything

Major oopsie.

A news release sent out Monday outlined Prime Minister Stephen Harper's itinerary as he began a five-day Arctic tour.

The release repeatedly spelled the capital of Nunavut as Iqualuit - rather than Iqaluit, which means "many fish" in the Inuktitut language.

The extra "u" makes a world of difference.

"It means people with unwiped bums," said Sandra Inutiq of the office of the Languages Commissioner of Nunavut.


Hey, shit happens...

Hey, ya know what? Next time a Leftist calls you a "teabagger", call them a "stinking iqualuit".
