http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Several_Monty_Python_sketches - I've combined the individual sketches Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson & The Funniest Joke in the World on a test basis to determine if this resolves the root of the conflict.

Episode name

[edit]

I'm assuming the name is not meant to be related to the content of the of show, since Canada is never mentioned. I'm guessing it was just something the Pythons lifted from a newspaper story because they though it was funny (i.e. Canada is such a bland and unimportant place, why would it "whither" and who cares?). Persumably it was originally a reference to the Front de libération du Québec bombings and related political tenstion of that era. But are they any competing theories? Are their any interviews that explain it? --Kevlar (talk • contribs) 22:50, 25 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
