A Typo Mistake?

Our typo corner focused on someone talking about building canapés when, from the context, it appeared he or she meant canopies. However, an astute reader from Quebec pointed out that canapés are not only foods, but furniture as well. – Editor

"The word canapé does mean hors d'oeuvres, but it also means a piece of furniture; in particular a sofa that seats three. Perhaps the writer was building canapés." – Serge Sansregret
