U.S. ambassador calls residents “the best of us”
By Maclean's

In a somber ceremony of thanksgiving and remembrance, residents of Gander, Nfld., welcomed passengers stranded by the 9/11 attacks back to their community on Sunday. U.S. Ambassador to Canada David Jacobson thanked the locals for their help and hospitality ten years after the terrorist strikes froze international travel and left about 200 planes grounded far from home.
