American “Jeopardy” contestants vs. the “Canadian Cities” category

I prefer to call them “Moosewegians”.

Canada may be the country next door — on the other side of the world’s longest undefended border — and it’s the United States’ biggest trading partner, but you wouldn’t know it from this episode of the game show Jeopardy!. One of the second-round categories of a recent game was “Canadian Cities”, and the contestants avoided it like the plague until there wasn’t any choice. That’s when the hilarity (well, it was hilarious to this Canadian) ensued. Watch the video below to see how terribly wrong things went:
