Both This Hour Has 22 Minutes and Rick Mercer's Monday Report had parodies on the Movie Piracy video that you see at the beginning of every movie you go see in the theatres. 22's version was about some Canadian CG guy who was requesting viewers to "Download Canadian Films - We could use the audience" (including the Anti-Piracy Video featuring the guy so people know he worked on stuff), while Monday Report's was a thinly-veiled rant about how we just paid $9 to go see a movie, supporting the film industry, and they have the nerve to play the Anti-Piracy Video in the front of all of the movies regardless.

I'm really starting to like CBC's Monday Lineup. :D

Woah. Doonesbury has put up US$10,000 to see if anyone can prove that George Bush served in the Alabama National Guard. O.o I like Doonesbury and all, I'm just concerned the guy will get in trouble for trying to debunk the President of the USA. (Come to think of it, Doonesbury used the word "masturbation" recently and that comic was banned in hundreds of newspapers. Not the Sun, tho. :P I guess he's looking to stir-up some news for himself.)

technically, he can't get into trouble, since we have the right to speak out against our government. but concidering the state of things, he'll probably disappear one day, and nobody will ask any questions.
funny, i was under the impression that next to nobody read doonesbury anyway, so why did they ban that word? and since when has that been a horrible word to say? ever since the whole janet jackson thing everyone is on this book-burning, black-barring, bleeping rampage. i mean, they're talking about getting rid of commercials with FARTING and CROTCH BITING DOGS in them. WTF??

damnit i wanna move to canada...

I found the "masturbation" Doonesbury comic to be totally unoffensive. It was actually one of the lighter comics, considering Doonesbury typically does political humour.

Just don't move to Quebec - they seem to be the ones who can't take a joke these days, what with the Don Cherry comment and the Triumph The Comic Insult Dog comment...
