Apparently the government is pissed at Conan because he made fun of french-speaking Quebec.
They made points about "Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog"......hate to tell ya, but when you invite Conan, you also invite Triumph and that's what Triumph does.

People gotta suck up the insults.....hell, I get insulted all the time and still laugh about it.

I don't see why the hell people can't get over themselves sometimes and take things at face value.

Canadian stereotypes exist.
If I just blew your mind, then you really need to get out more.

If someone who is taking a Canadian based joke offencivly that was stated on a late night talk show by a fucking dog puppet then they really need to wake up and smell the coffee. If they want to live in a naive world where everything they say is completly unbiased, then they are going to have to get off this planet because I guarantee at some point the morons who are bitching about this one stereotype based joke have made their own stereotypical comment at some point in their lives.

Is this really the only thing we have to do with our time these days? Nit pick on jokes? It really doesn't seem worth it.
