You know what Canada looks like? It looks like the best part of town – where everyone is cool and gets drunk all the time without hangovers and where you used to go to raves when you were like 16 and now when you go back the rave places have grown up with you and become chocolate shops and classic book stores – but it looks like that all over the country.

Anyway, this commercial for the Palm Pre in Canadia (in order of importance) shows roller derby, some kind of old persons ball game, and the Palm Pre. The resulting footing, led by an amiable guy in a tie, tells me more about the Pre than Ms. Freakyhead ever did. Good job, Canada! Too bad you’re monarchist communards or I’d totally be living up there.
