They’ve been doing that for a while now. “Canada must reflect the true character of the Canadian people”. And by that of course they mean those who don’t live in our major cities.
Harper goes Bollywood. Meaning: Harper hires foreign-born actor to be on Tourism Commission, who then in turn endorses Harper at the premiere of his movie. You can’t buy that kind of publicity! Oh…wait.

MoneySense’s worst places to live in Canada. Damn! Kenora beat us out for least cultural.
