From the pages of Brushback, here is this week’s best fake news.

PHOENIX–The Suns’ Steve Nash was raised in Victoria, British Columbia and is a card carrying citizen of Canada. Despite those obstacles, he has managed to elevate himself to the best all around player in the NBA, winning two consecutive MVP’s and rapidly closing in on a third. Nash believes his success is proof that anybody, even people from Canada, can lead productive lives as long as they work hard and believe in themselves.

“Succeeding in life is all about attitude and determination,” Nash said on Monday . “A lot of people think, ‘He’s from Canada. He’s got no chance of ever being a useful member of society.’ While I can understand that sentiment, I also have a strong work ethic and a stubborn refusal to let my ‘disability’ get in the way of my dreams. Hopefully l can show other Canadians that they, too, can live normal lives, despite being unwashed, frostbitten Neanderthals.”
