Signs you may be watching a Canadian movie

• a scene in a curling rink
• the appearance, however brief, of a bottle of Ex, Blue or Canadian
• 50 per cent of wardrobe budget spent on plaid flannel shirts and hunting vests
• obscure and/or consistent references to hockey
• appearance or voiceover by yet another former cast member of SCTV
• appearance or voiceover by yet another former cast member of Kids in the Hall
• plenty of beaver, the furry kind I mean
• nothing interesting happens
• the movie's reporters are, in fact, actual reporters from your local news station
• the starring couple have deep meaningful conversations in the woods -- instead of having sex
