I Love You, Canada

Okay, I have a maple-flavored confession: I'm kind of excited for the Battle of the Blades. Why? Let's see. I like cheesy dance competitions. I was forced to like figure skating by my Mom, although lingering bitterness towards Elvis Stojko remains. I often tolerate hockey. Combine these things and CBC's low production values and sense of earnestness, and you get something I'll definitely sit in front of when I'm eating dinner from a can.

Of course, with my luck in picking CBC shows, it will become a ratings bomb and die an unmourned death. Just like my beloved MVP: The Secret Lives of Hockey Wives. Why must Canada suffer through Little Mosque On The Prairie when that little slice of delicious cheesecake is gone from our lives forever? Sigh.

Anyway, I'm pulling for anyone but Domi and Christine Hough-Sweeney. By the way, this song is the one I've mentally choreographed an entire figure skating routine to. Oh, the dramatic hand gestures I do in my mind...

P.S. I know, for official competition it would have to be a wordless version. God.
