    Uh-Oh, Canada? - TheLedger, FL
    When pressed for other cities he'd been to in Canada, he named none specifically. When pressed further, he said he'd visited the area 'back toward Indiana' where he was stationed in the Army, but added it was 'well, obviously above Indiana.'

    CBC News also recently noted that Wilkins, 58, was given a standing ovation by the South Carolina Assembly, where he has served for 25 years, the last 10 years as speaker. The report said Wilkins told the crowd he had been nominated 'to serve as United States ambassador to Canada, our friend and neighbor to the north.'
