He was in a comedy that Michael Moore made about 25 years or so ago called Canadian Bacon. Alda played a beleaguered U.S. president who tries to start a war with Canada in order to deflect attention away from his own disastrous administration.
It's a hella train wreck of a movie, but it does have John Candy in his final film role.

Canadian bacon was a pretty good movie. I saw a review that said the jokes were too smart to work for the crowd he thought it was just pure comedy. And for the crowd who thought it was serious social commentary, the jokes were too retarded. But there was a lot of good stuff in that especially the scene where Dan Aykroyd was a Canadian traffic cop and stop the American invader with the graffiti on the truck.

Are Steven Wright the comedian is a Canadian mountie going through the list of criminals in his jail. And the way he politely welcomed Delta Force Commandos when they invaded his office. That was a funny movie.
