A segment on This Hour Has 22 Minutes. Rick Mercer goes to parts of the states where supposedly intelligent americans can be found and asks them questions about Canada like:

  • Should the Canadian government ban the practice of Tête du Merde where senior citizens are placed on iceflows and left to perish?
  • Should the UN send peace keepers into Saskatchewan to protect civilians from the Russian Invasion?
  • Should the Seal Hunt on Saskatchewan's iceflows be stopped?
  • Should the Irish be allowed to vote in Canada?
  • Canada's Metric Calendar results in our New Year being on February 30, would you like to be there to celebrate a second time after celebrating somwhere else on January 1.
