Originally Posted By thenurmis much better, not nearly as embarrassing as the old show.

Thanks for posting up the whole film, was fun to watch....who is Martin Short, wasn't he our president?

It made me want to go to Canada, and I loved seeing the Stampede in this version. But I am with Doobie on this one, I miss the old song and do not like the new one quite as much. Perhaps if I had never heard the original, fine, but this time I do not dig the updated soundtrack. I would love to see this in person.

Originally Posted By beamerdog I'll definitely need to see this in person before I pass final judgment. But - I'm not a fan of the new version of the song. It's okay, but I really loved the original. Martin Short is not one of my favorites, so the addition of the stand up wasn't a plus. I've been to Toronto, Montreal and drove up past New England to the Bay and Fundy. Which part of the old film was bad, the nurmis? Off topic, has a spell check been added to lp? Or is it just a function of my new computer? Whatever it is, I love it!
