    In an election 2000 segment, Rick Mercer of the television series This Hour Has 22 Minutes convinced then-Governor of Texas George W. Bush that Canada's Prime Minister,Jean Chretien, was named Jean Poutine and that he was supporting Bush's candidacy. A few years later when Bush made his first official visit to Canada, he said during a speech, "There's a prominent citizen who endorsed me in the 2000 election, and I wanted a chance to finally thank him for that endorsement. I was hoping to meet Jean Poutine." The remark was met with laughter and applause.

    Actually I think that one I mentioned was on the Rick Mercer Report... Burbly will clarify that for me. :rolleyes:

    Poutine is mindbogglingly delicious.

    But so is curry :D

    Which is a scale model of the Iowa state building which is a scale model of the capital building in washington...

    Rick Mercer ruled at that.

    He also convinced some New Yorkers that bombing Saskatchewan was nessecary, Princton students to sign a petition to stop the Canadian government from setting seniors out on ice lows, and to stop the Toronto Polar Bear hunt, and another to stop the Saskatchewan seal hunt...

    Oh, and that we have a bridge called the Peter Mans Bridge :D
