Canadian National Igloo


Canadian comedian Rick Mercer’s show ‘Talking to Americans’ occasionally has some good segments. I didn’t catch this when it aired, or maybe forgot about it, but am glad it came to my attention again. Certainly, its more relevant after the Iowa results.

The show involves Mercer interviewing Americans and exposing ignorance of Canada, Canadians, and the world in general. I have no idea how many people he has to talk to in order to fill up an hour of ignorance.

This clip shows Mercer talking with Mike Huckabee, then Governor of Arkansas. Mercer had Huckabee convinced that Canadian Parliament meets in an igloo modeled after the White House.
