As an ordinary Canadian, let me say how sick I am of these rich artists and their rich galas.

Hear, hear!
Further, as an ordinary Canadian myself, I must say how pleased and filled with pride I am with our Prime Minister's failure to call or in anyway acknowledge Mr Obama's election victory yesterday.

There's nothing to be proud of when it comes to Harper. He actually makes me ashamed sometimes...

Thanks Dana. Is that viewable outside Canada? If not, let me know and I'll post my capture.
Nice use of a Hip lyrical reference by Gord, and perhaps a joke about a band being big in their homeland but not next door...

Very nice thanks :thumb:

.... and Boyden wins it. Gord must be the lucky charm.
I was betting on Rawi Hage.
