Canada has become trouble recently. . . It's always the worst Americans who go there. . . We could have taken them over so easy. But I only want the western part, with the ski areas, the cowboys, and the right wingers. They're the only good parts of Canada.

Well, of course the general idea was dreamed up by the advertising agency and so my job was to realize that.
