It appears that things are getting out of hand

You know I really didn't mean to start an arms race of political craziness between the great nations of Canada and the United States. It all started so innocently enough with Rob Ford reminding the world that Canada is more than hockey, beer and the guys who gave the world insulin. The timing was perfect really. We were still a year away from our election and you guys didn't seem to have one going on at the time so we shared a good laugh, everyone had fun at Toronto's expense like a true Canadian, and it was all good. Canada was able to put the crazy distractions behind and focus on our own election, at which point Donald Trump announced he was running for president.

Yeah, talk about making it hard to watch the Canadian party leader debates but turn around was fair play. It was still all good, no hard feelings, and again we move on. Until today.

Yeah America. I apologize. I didn't realize that we just couldn't resist the urge to out crazy you again so please, please, I beg you. Hold back your wrath. Let the better rational angels of your nature rise above this the way I know you can!

Ah the hell with it. At the rate this tit for tat is going the North American continent is going to be one giant Salvador Dali picture. Lets just roll the tape on an actual Canadian election commercial.

...Wait, when did the Aztecs make it to Canada? Or are we just drawing Mexico into the who has the worst political Candidates? I mean, it's really not fair if we draw them in. They'll win, hands down...on the knees. Near a nicely dug trench...somewhere out in the desert...by the Cartel.

If you want to have fun with some of American politics - just remember, Bernie Sanders is Mr. Burns. Now, have fun!

Didn't Mr. Burns already run for office on The Simpsons? Even if he did I still think he'd have even odds against Tribble Head Man.

And I have to say of all your candidates Mr. Sanders is the one who is currently getting my hypothetical thought experiment vote for that particular election. He just seems the most reasonable of all the candidates.

A couple of years ago there was some information that some British Columbia marijuana grow op operators wanted to go down to Mexico, get some contacts and break into the Mexican cartel business. The RCMP advice to them was make sure their will, life insurance and funeral plans were up to date.

I thought it was pretty valid advice considering the cartels fearsome reputation.
