Dear, Dear eCanada Let Us Unite [EN/FR]
Francois L. Pignon
Hello eCanada,
Today I don't approach you as a member of TCO, a former member of the CAF, a member of UN or a member of congress. I approach you today as a concerned eCanadian Citizen who wishes to atone for his actions and seeks to repair the growing rift in eCanada that has been widened in the past day.
I do not seek clemency; I am taking my punishment, as I should be. I have nothing to argue. I plead guilty to being a member of the party that trolled the CAF forum. I expected punishment and I will take it like a man.
I wish to apologize to the members of the CAF who now hold a tarnished image of myself; Coda, jfstpierre, Christian Doe, Unum, and many others whom I consider to be friends both in game and out. I hope that they can see my sincerity.
I apologize to Fox Blutch for putting him in a position of having to punish citizens of eCanada. He is not a bad guy; he had to do what he had to do. Do not blame him.
I apologize to the non-participatory members of TCO who now have had their image tarnished. Do not blame the entire TCO for this action; it was a spur of the moment thing that was completely unplanned. It is not fair to place the blame over the entire group.
I wish to apologize to the forum and IRC administrators who worked tediously to rectify what we had done early in the morning.
I apologize to Chochi for putting him in the awkward position of removing my position as the deputy speaker of congress. I apologize to all of congress for making them have to discuss this nonsense.
I want the TCO and the CAF to be on friendly terms. I do not want them warring with each other within the same country. We must come together; we must fight the eUK together. A friendly rivalry is different, but we must join our resources together and fight for the cause together. We're on the same team.
This won't happen overnight and it won't happen by itself. We must work. We must work together.
Let's make it happen.
-Francois L. Pignon

Bonjour eCanada,
Aujourd’hui, je ne vous approche pas en tant que member des TCO, ni comme un ancien membre des CAF, un membre de l’UN ou un congressiste. Je vous approche en tant que citoyen consterné qui cherche à s’expier pour ses actions et qui cherche à réparer le gouffre grandissant qui sépare dans l’eCanada qui semble s’être élargie encore plus ces derniers jours.
Je ne cherche pas votre clémence; je reçois ma peine comme il se doit d’être. Je ne peux argumenter sur le sujet. Je plaide coupable d’avoir fait partie du groupe qui a trollé le forum des CAF. Je prévois une sanction, et la recevrai comme un homme.
Je tiens à m’excuser auprès de Fox Blutch pour l’avoir mis dans une position où il avait à punir des citoyens eCanadiens. Il n’est pas un homme mauvais; il a fait ce qu’il avait à faire. Ne le blâmer pas pour autant.
Je tiens à m’excuser auprès des membres des TCO qui n’ont pas participé aux évènements mentionnés plus haut qui se retrouve à voir leur image ternie. Ne vous en prenez pas à l’entièreté des TCO pour ces actions; c’était une impulsion du moment, un geste complètement imprévu. Il serait injuste de rejeter la faute sur l’organisation en entier.
Je tiens à m’excuser auprès des administrateurs du forum et de l’IRC, qui ont dut travaille ardemment très tôt le matin pour rectifier le tir.
Je tiens à m’excuser auprès de Chochi pour l’avoir mis dans l’embarrassante position où il dut m’enlever ma position de « Deputy Speaker » du congrès. Je m’excuse à tous les congressistes congressistes pour avoir engendré des discutions et débats autours de ces absurdités.
Je voudrais que les TCO et les CAF puissent travailler en terme d’amitié. Je ne veux plus les voir se disputer alors qu’ils sont tous originaires du même pays. Nous devons nous rallier; la vraie cible est le eUK. Une rivalité amicale ne peut causer de tort, mais nous devons à tout prix joindre nos ressources et se battre pour la même cause. Nous sommes dans la même équipe.
Ça ne pourrait se passer en une nuit, et ça n’arrivera jamais spontanément, sans effort. Nous devons y travailler. Nous devons tous y travailler, ensemble.
Allons-y, faisons-le.
Francois L. Pignon
Merci pour la traduction française, M. Loiselle!

In before trolling from both sides.
Voted for thruth and wisdom.
You're a very humble man Francois, keep it like that.
Voted for the pure common sense present!
TCO and CAF may never love eachother, but alteast fight on the same side and not against eachother.
This is my boy.
Learn a lesson from him.
I said I'd vouch for you once your punishment is up, and this confirms why.
When did this crap happen? Congress is getting ready to strip us of our individual rights! Why pay attention to this fluff!
Very well put Francois 😃

Yes the TCO and the CAF need to make love to each other not F**K each other....sweet sweet love.
You got 2 votes and 2 subs for this sane message.
❤
Damn right franky, Now let's win some battles!
Voted, subbed, and supported. Hope this helps end all this hostility.
No worries, mate. All is, personally, forgiven.
You, for one, are forgiven. I am still waiting for the other miscreants.
The TCO and CAF can never love each other, but at least they could kick Britfag ass instead of each other.

Thanks for this article, Francois! And also, I forgive you. You wrote sincerely and with your heart, not to please people.

Thanks for that, Francois. And, yes, we're still friends.
Now when are you going to regain the rest of your senses and rejoin the CAF?
Hehe Unum, I'm not sure the CAF would want me back now and I'm not sure if I'm done completely with my job at TCO. We shall see in due course won't we?
I'm so happy that somewhere in there the Francois I remember is still there.

I blame the raptor inside

They already have, jamesw, they already have.
TCO and CAF are brothers in arms
Frank, well met.
@jamesw, thanks for posting. As Country President of the UK your post reminds us all that they only people winning as a result of this feud is the UK.
Never underestimate the value of a sincere apology.
Bien fait, monsieur.

make a bridge not a fissure
im in if tco is
Troll's remorse is always disappointing to me. Troll and be proud, damnit! Embrace the momma jokes, even if she's dead! (Especially if she's dead.)
Still, having TCO and CAF slapfighting like idiots wasn't/isn't going to take us anywhere good.
