Lie Witness News - Canada is America’s 51st State

This NBA Finals is the first ever between the US and Canada. Which of course is fun but Jimmy wanted to point something out that has been bothering him and that is the Raptors team slogan, “We The North.” Toronto is not the North. Toronto is part of Canada and it’s actually the Southern part. Canada is its own country and your location identity shouldn’t be relative to America. Wethought we could have some fun with this, so we went out on the street and we asked pedestrian show they felt about the news that Canada had just become our 51st State. Of course, that did not happen. But did that stop people from weighing in on it? We find out in tonight’s Canada edition of #LieWitnessNews.
