Of course, Trudeau is nothing if not polite, so after broadcast host Sandra Oh pointed out the error, he trotted back out to say "I love you, Alberta!"

He also tweeted an apology -- a uniquely Canadian thing to do on Canada Day.

Interestingly, Canada's two new astronauts -- introduced at Saturday's festivities -- are both from Alberta. Will they still get to go into space?!
