Justin Trudeau forgot a whole province during his Canada Day speech
Well, well, well... look who's human after all.
Justin Trudeau accidentally forgot to mention Alberta while passionately listing Canada's states and provinces during his Canada Day speech Saturday.

The gaffe did not go unnoticed.
We're only counting 12 in this list... is there something we should know, Alberta? (just kidding, it was a slip) #Canada150 pic.twitter.com/uuPp1p4uOF

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.
Got too excited somewhere over the Rockies. Sorry Alberta, I love you. Happy 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?!
