The only thing they have in common is the CBC. Farce's total yearly audience probably equals the same as one HNIC broadcast. After the first round of the playoffs are over, guess eastern Canada can watch repeats of "The Farce" while in the west we will watch Vancouver and Calgary battle to get into the final.

Sorry, watched Air Farce once but didn't find it funny. 2nd apology to Leaf's fan! Habs all the way! Hockey Game! Sorry, watched Air Farce once but didn’t find it funny.

Record Farce, watch the game. You just can't do it the other way. Immediately following the end of Farce you aren't going to have to worry about accidentally finding out what happened via some friend or in your RSS news feed. The score of the game, however, will immediately be broadcast, and once you see the final score it completely ruins watching the game after the fact. Now, logistics aside, hockey is obviously more Canadian! It's "Hockey Night In Canada" and has been for more than 50 years. How many good Canadian boys want to grow up to be in Air Farce? Sorry Farce, you are a good laugh now and then but you can't compete against one of the original six. Game on! Go Leafs Go! The answer is obvious! Record Farce, watch the game. You just can’t do it the other way.

The plan was to finish brunch, make a quick Ikea trip to pick up a dresser and be home in time for Heather to see the game. While Heather watches the game, I'll assemble the furniture, waiting patiently to have my TV back. What does it mean if I have no interest in the game OR the Air Farce? Would being born in Windsor be considered a valid defense? Ya... I didn't think so.

Hockey has been around longer than Air Farce so must be more Canadian. The question was what is more Canadian, not what to watch.
