No Booz pleaz
No Hockey Night in Canada Those of a certain age may remember the 1999 movie which ushered a cartoon that hit the airwaves in 1997, to the big screen. “South Park”, a firmly ensconced television staple of a particular humor gave birth to the film, “South Park, Bigger, Longer & Uncut”. Its anthemic song, which became wildly popular, is one of the best takes on the Canada/America divide ever to grace the screen. Incisive, satirical, a bit political and downright funny, “Blame Canada” was nominated for ‘Best Original Song’ at the 2000 Oscars. Its lyrics have stood the test of time, moreso than ever now in light of the burgeoning tariff war between America and its northern neighbor. Not only does the song poke fun at both countries, but it thrust the typically reticent Canada definitively into the limelight.
