Thanks for that, but gosh darn it, what was the thing about Brian Mulroney stealing his pants and throwing the guy in a tree?

Random stuff—there is a quasi-duet going on at that point with two competing sets of lyrics-—I’m not sure if Mulroney is the noun that goes with that set of verbs or not.

At any rate a very pro-rural Alberta/Edmonton and very anti Toronto/Ontario take on Canada.

Upon reflection, it may be trying to one-up a line out of the chorus of the Irish Son “I’ll tell me Ma” which goes “he pulled my hair and stole my comb”-—that part of the tune does have something of a resemblance.
