MIssisauga, Ontario is a debt-free major city. Meet the mayor!


Sixth largest city in Canada, no debt, C$700 million in reserves.  The mayor is an 88-year-old former professional hockey player.

Too bad the interviewer has to be the clown at the center of attention.

    Ha! That clown is Rick Mercer, a well-known political satirist. Kinda like the Canadian Jon Stewart, only not as savvy.

    Haha yes, Rick Mercer is quite hilarious. It's his job to be a clown.

    "Too Bad", not "To Bad". However it is an ironic misuse in light of the fact that the Titanic sequel post on the same day also contained "Two The Surface" rather than "To The Surface" as a subtitle....

    "Titanic Two The Surface" is correct. This the terminology used for movie title in the video. But it would have been clearer had it been properly punctuated by the video's maker and listed as "Titanic Two: The Surface."

    But you can hardly blame Stan for this.

    Stan, if you want a serious interview, don't look for comedy show clips.
