This week Gordon Donald, the head of a special entertainment unit of the government, appeared on This is That announcing that the Canadian government is trying to make "viral comedy videos."

When asked why Donald responded by saying: "We want Canada to know that the government is cool. Nothing is cooler than making a funny video for the internet. This is our way of connecting with the youth."

This is That is an award-winning satirical current affairs show that doesn't just talk about the issues, it fabricates them.
