flattop... hear ya loud and clear and sgree with a lot of what you posted, but, still, a lot of these 22 Minutes segemnts were pretty poor. I have always lived by the motto, **** 'em if they can't take a joke, but, again, some of these segments were contrived and childish. So much so that I was embarrased for Rick.

BTW, for the benefit of you Yanks, Rick is a very talented writer, comedian and actor who has made me laugh and provoked me to ponder many, many times. It's just this one bit that upsets me. AND it's not just me. Many of my friends are of like mind.

BTW BTW, flattop said... We Canadians have lots of reasons that I won't spell out to learn about the country on our borders with ten times our population, with economic and military clout.... Whoa up bucko ! The Commonwealth has a population far more than ten times the population of the US, and has far more economic, military and political clout than the US. Perhaps we tend to learn more about them than they do of us because we have have to do SOMETHING during these damn snowstorms like I'm doing right now.
