I don't know about the CBC, but I'd offer good odds that such a program couldn't get an airing in the the US.
At least it brought the biggest idiots into the light of day
I saw the Gov't minister decrying the program ... even though she hadn't seen it !!
Gee, it would be cheaper to hire tailors dummies and make them ministers, as a mind is obviously a hinderence. LOL
