I think Canadian humor is a little less broad than American humor.

I think the Canadian sense of humor is dryer than America's and juicier than Britain's. I think it's a cross between the two of them, really.

When you are not treated seriously, you develop comically. Its sense of oneself is so fractured and fragile that it's like the picked-on kid who has to become funny.

When I was younger I wanted to be a big movie star who'd get to be funny on talk shows and then I wanted to retire and write science fiction.

I'm not really cool, or dashing, or any of those things.

In France, everyone speaks French 'cause they think it's cool. Gives 'em, gives 'em an excuse to smoke.
