Trying to think of something else, he just shakes his head after a moment.]
I- I'm really sorry, but, it's hard to say. We- we just are who we are. I mean... if I were a character out of a book, but there was no copy of the book, how could you verify it? We... are countries off of our Earth. [Sadly he looks down and fidgets with the end of his tie for a moment. He continues in a voice even more soft and timid, but heart-felt.]
I- I'm sorry, Mister Edgeworth. If you would... I hope you can come to just accept us as we are. L-lots of other people have. I- I can tell they wonder at it and think it's a bit weird, but... they accept it. I am Canada, and I have f-friends who are characters from books and television shows in some worlds, but here, they are their own people. H-here, us countries can... be... ourselves too.
[With an abashed glance at the others - he hope he hadn't said too much - he looks down again.]

Sir... blind faith is simply not something that I am capable of, nor wish to be, for it is a weakness easily abused by the unscrupulous. Trust is something to be earned, and the truth something to be proven; anything less, and society would spiral into chaos. It is not my aim to offend you -- any of you -- but merely to hold fast to the principles that I have struggled to perfect, and to discover how best to apply them here. ...They are all that I have left.

So. That's what this is really about. He nods with personal understanding.]
I see. And I hope-- I'm sure that you will find that application soon.
