The Expatriated Boss

A boss who had traveled to Canada found himself taunted by a citizen of Montreal, who accused him of fleeing to avoid prosecution. "You do me a grave injustice," the boss replied, parting with a pair of tears. "I came to Canada solely because of its political attractions; its government is the most corrupt in the world."

"Pray forgive me," said the citizen of Montreal, realizing the misunderstanding. The two then embraced, sharing a heartfelt moment of reconciliation. At the conclusion of that touching rite, the boss found himself in possession of two watches.
