America, But Better: Canadian Comedians Take On US Politics
Our “continental BFF’s” are here to save us from ourselves.
Anchor Marco Werman talks to comedians and co-authors Chris Cannon and Brian Calvert about their new book, America, But Better: The Canada Party Manifesto.
The book takes a poke at some of the differences between the countries and suggests that Canada should run for President of the United States.
“We just want to come and help America,” says Calvert, “to fluff its pillows and serve it some soup and just kind of let it rest a bit and let us take the helm for a while.”
