Wayne & Shuster - part clip of "Question Time" sketch

A musical director from Hollywood wants to give the House of Commons a new look and style so it can be more appealing to the public. The NDP party is to wear overalls and carry lunchboxes, and the Liberals and Conservatives are to wear red/blue suits to distinguish them, along with musical accompaniment.

Ah, the good old days. No one could sum up Canada and Canadian comedy like Wayne and Shuster.

And it would be a welcome change from the Tories screaming insults instead of doing their job.

Anyone else get the feeling that this would have been a huge meme if it was made now?

[Soulthinker2007]

That is hilarious. Sometimes I wished is was real. I could imagine Trudeau's Parliment.

For those not Canadian, the slapping of the tables is done in Parliament instead of clapping. (Hence why it brought a laugh.) The guys in red are suppose to be the Liberals, the ones in blue are Conservatives and they guys in the plad shirts are NDP.

if real parliament was like that, i'd totally run for it!

What ever happened to sketch comedy like that? No wonder us Canadians are loosing our identity.

The good ole' CBC I'm so very sorry you're gone and you're never coming back.

Thankfully, we can all have a visit with the likes of Wayne & Shuster via youtube.

That chorus has been embedded in my brain from the first time I heard it. Whenever I encounter some ridiculous circumstance, it usual kicks in in the background of my mind LOL. "We don't know, and we don't care!" Great stuff.
