The plural was nonliteral. It's pretty much just Triton and the vague potential for other things she hasn't considered fully to also be scary if she encounters them and they turn out to be.

"Like... with my life? Um, I go to school," she says. "And have strong feelings about beer. And punch people who pick on my brother."
I am noticing an arbitrary correlation of Canadians in Effulgence and beer.

Do two instances (Val-Ike, Wolverines) make a correlation? Or are there more I'm forgetting?

All habitually Canadian characters are purple. I can’t think of any green characters very into beer. So the correlation, if it exists, is not arbitrary.

I suppose Mays don't count as "habitually Canadian" because they're a subset of a larger template.

Not only that, but they haven’t appeared Canadian in Effulgence. They did show up somewhere with plentiful maple products once, but that’s the closest they’ve come so far.

Sorry. I don't think Barrayar has moose? Which are a essential part of being Canadian, Eh.
Charlies aren't into beer too?

Charlies drink beer but they aren't into beer.

Hmm. Moose are important, but so are maple trees. Maybe they should import some moose. Then they will automatically become part of Canada.
Or maybe the original wormhole collapsed because they did import moose and it doesn’t make sense to connect one part of Canada to another via wormhole.

but do they have poutine? You can't be part of Canada if you don't have poutine.
