Canada for U.S. president, YouTube video says


A mocking YouTube video created by a retired U.S. marine (Canadian citizen) offers up the Great White North for "Canadacy" in the U.S. presidential race and is racking up tens of thousands of page views and plenty of comments.

The 90-second video promoting a fictional "Canada party" appears to be attracting about equal measures of applause and scorn, judging by comments from American viewers.

The video, by a Vancouverite and transplanted American who uses the name Chris Cannon online, makes a humorous pitch for Americans to choose Canadian leadership later this year rather than supporting any of the current field of presidential wannabes.

With O Canada playing in the background and a picture of the Queen on the mantle above a crackling fire, a bearded and tie-wearing pitchman promotes alleged Canadian superiority — with a heavy dash of self-mockery — while trash-talking the U.S.

At one point, a list of leading Canadian indicators scrolls up the screen.

It says Canada leads the U.S. in crime prevention, the employment rate, Bigfoot sightings and bear attacks, among other things.

If Canada were to be elected President of the United States, does that mean that Queen Elizabeth II would be sovereign of the nation? Fuck that shit!

Where else can you get 5 cent beaver!?!

It is weird though, the difference in the countries:

Canada -- sexually open and chillin'....un-gun crazy and can't buy liquor at every store with a door and a shelf.

USA -- showing a nipple or saying "God damn" on teevee is ILLEGAL....yet it's a firearm and booze free-for-all.

Spot on. Although the Canucks have more immigration per capita than any other Western country on the planet. Then again it's about one 10th the size, but still. We have as many illegal aliens as the entire country, but for sure they got their own problems as well.
