 Actually, this is true.. now that I think of it Twin Peaks DOES resemble
 Canada like you said. As a sidenote, on a comedy show I was watching there
 was a sketch where a comedian was saying that Canada would be the perfect
 country to invade someone else. You would have the president from the other
 country calling the UN and telling them that Canada is invading us and the
 UN would say Canada? They wouldn't do anything like that... :-)
