Ugh. For the Canadian Anglophiles, my current best Quebec joke:

A British Columbian and a Quebecois were walking along when they both spied
a lamp and ran for it. They both got their hands on it at the same time, so
when the genie appeared, he said, "I have to split your wishes -- but due
to budget cuts, I always round down, so you only get one."

"Fine," said the Quebecois, "I want a giant, impenetrable wall built around
Quebec, 150 meters high!"

"Done," said the genie.

"Wait a minute," said the BCan. "There's now a wall around the entire
province of Quebec?"

"Yep," said the genie.

"And it's 150 meters high?"

"Yep."

"And nothing can get in or out of it?"

"Totally impenetrable," nodded the genie.

"In that case," said the BCan, rubbing his hands together, "fill it up
with water!"

Au revoir,
