In lieu of the 2016 US Presidential Election today Canadians are taking the worldwide stage, often being the butt of every joke. You know, because we’re extremely close to the states. And in true Canadian spirit we’re not going to take the jokes from the rest of the world, we’re going to make our own and prove a point. We aren’t the same as our neighbor’s from below us, and we have a lot of opinions about their election too.
So sit back, and enjoy a good laugh:

And that we do. Don’t get me wrong, much like the rest of the world, we are scared of the outcome of the election and will more than likely be staying up waiting for the results in fear. If only you could vote Cory Baxter in the White House…
So on behalf of all Canadians and probably the rest of the world; Americans, please don’t mess this up for the rest of the world. We’re counting on you.
