Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRick Mercer's character 'Tom Berry' seems to be a spoof of outspoken, inflammatory and flamboyantly-dressed Ontario hockey commentator Don Cherry.
- GoofsAt the Ontario/Quebec provincial line, as Bouchard is walking away and Ward is speaking to him from behind, Ward's position changes between camera shots, although he's depicted as standing still.
- Quotes
David Bouchard: You have an accent in both languages. Who was your teacher? Jean Chrétien?
- Crazy creditsThe end credits are backwards, scrolling down instead of up.
- Alternate versionsBecause the dialogue is half English, half French, both versions shared the same soundtrack. The only difference is in the subtitles: in the French version, English dialogue was subtitled, and in the English version, it was the French dialogue.

Featured review
Extremely funny and yet suspenseful
The chemistry between Huard and Feore is fantastic. I had thought the subtitles would be annoying but they are such an integral part of the humour that I didn't mind them at all.
There are moments in the movie that are shocking enough to make you squeeze your eyes shut, but the humour is retained all the way through.
Warning - I was part of a test audience. There were a lot of complaints about language and violence. I thought it was brilliantly done, however if you're sensitive to either, this movie may not be for you. I hope the film doesn't get changed because of the complaints. It is perfectly balanced as it is.
