Oh, Canadian jokes. Now *there's* a topic we can all agree on. :-)
I'll start: William Shatner.

(obligatory disclaimer for [fill in as needed]).
PS: Almost every summer for the past five years we've spent a long weekend
with a couple in K-W, Ontario, eating fine food and seeing plays at
Stratford. This past winter he took a job at Microsoft. We decided that
a change of location shouldn't interfere with a happy tradition, so we spent
a week in Seattle being tourists.
Much to my shock, they'd learned many many new Canadian jokes from the
other Canadian ex-pats now at MicroSoft. But IMHO, brevity remains the
soul of wit. Ergo: Brian Mulrooney.
