Dwight Shrute sings his Canada song

From a promo for The Office, airing during the Vancouver games.  Lyrics as follows:

Well, Pam, there’s really only a few things you need to know about Canada:

There’s Newfoundland and Labrador,
Saskatchewan, Ontario,
Quebec, Alberta, Manitoba,
New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.

Prince Edward Island’s very small,
but British Columbia tops them all!

[And that's where Vancouver is.]

But… before I finish up my story,
you should know the territories.

There are only three so I’ll be quick,
the Yukon, Northwest, and Nunavut.

If you want to have a ball,
there’s Saskatoon and Montreal.

And if you want to pack your sacks,
we’ll be going off the Halifax.

And if you’re looking for a wife,
be sure to visit Yellowknife.

NATURAL RESOURCES!

Perennial geraniums,
nickel–think uranium,
are filling up my cranium,
the exports that they boast.

Keep going? No? Ingrates.

In fact, if you’re looking for a wife, Yellowknife is probably not your best bet, with only 22, 365 women living there between the ages of 15 and 65, as of the 2006 census.   Source.
