C’mon. You know you want better options. Who better than Canada?

America’s sweet hat that’s good at hockey

Dug up from the archives, here’s Kid in the Hall Dave Foley (who for some reason was appearing on the first season of Mad TV) explaining the intricacies of Canada to his American audience.

So there you are, having just dodged an assassin’s hail of bullets in a seedy Zagreb saloon, and now you’re sprinting for your life down Prilaz Gjure Dezelica, the maple leaf on your MEC backpack just a blur as you dodge and weave down the street, looking for a place to hide until the Croatian mafia that’s hunting you loses interest. Where do you go?

Why Prilaz Gjure Dezelica 4 10000 Zagreb, of course. There you’ll find honest-to-goodness Canadian soil, some well-armed mounties (I think) and Edwin Loughlin, Canada’s Ambassador to Croatia, who just might be inclined to help you out.

That flag badge on your backpack will probably generate some goodwill with locals on the streets, but your Canadian passport might actually buy you some good ol’ diplomatic assistance that your taxes pay for.

For your convenience, Canada is Better is happy to showcase some of Canada’s overseas embassies – our homes away from home.

Sure, we lost one hockey game. But at least….

...and we'll probably still win hockey.

We couldn’t have put it better ourselves. And there’s still a better-than-average chance we’ll medal in hockey. What are the chances of a public health care option in the States?
