Conan and Canada

Conan O’Brien has riled French Canadians with harmless, albeit infantile, potshots. One pol denounced his japes as “racist filth.” One might call that a provincial reaction, if it wouldn’t be racist.

PS: Michael Potemra is exempt from all charges of provincialism, by virtue of watching so many movies which are neither in English, nor Joual.

Historian Richard Brookhiser is a senior editor of National Review and a senior fellow at the National Review Institute.
