Canadian hotel offers amnesty to thieves

Gadling:

In honor of its upcoming 100-year anniversary, the Château Laurier Hotel in Ottawa is offering an amnesty for anyone who has pilfered something from the hotel over the last century. The historic, castle-like hotel in the Canadian capital has already received more than 60 items from people all over North America.

“The amnesty part means there are no questions asked,” said Deneen Perrin, the hotel’s director of public relations. “It doesn’t matter whether your grandmother took a silver spoon and put it in her purse or if someone’s parents maybe worked in the hotel and took something, we’ll take it back.”

Shows how nice Canadians are.

  1. I got married there. There has to be a way to make some kind of joke about getting back what they stole from me. I’ll work on it.


  2. The opening of the hotel was actually delayed by several weeks because the man who was to manage the place died on the Titanic.
