"Only in Canada you say...."
For the non-Canadian readers the quote above is from a cheesy early 80's Canadian tea commercial. What I really wanted to point out was that Canada's national broadcaster CBC has produced a new show called "Little Mosque on the Prairie." What? Have the ubertolerant Canadians run amok? Judge for yourselves, here is a short article about the new tv series.
Apologies for reposting this so many times. I had no problem accessing the article but apparently it does require a subscription. Found another article on the New York Times website that addresses its controversial aspects.

Ironic that you should describe the situations as "Canadians run amok" whilst describing "Little Mosque on the Prairie" give the origins of run amok
...damn ... meant to write "given", not give!
I heard a blip on NPR about it this morning. They said it makes fun of Americans just as much as it does any other group. The plot sounds a bit like Northern Exposure--businessman from the city goes to the boondocks to be an imam.
