The Great Canadian Mullet
Cats: CBC Radio|Hooray to CBC for it’s excellent segments on the Great Canadian Mullet. The pieces aired on radio yesterday and today on Sounds like Canada.
This content is perfect for radio. It’s funny, self-deprecating and wry. And it’s so very Canadian. You can listen hereĀ and here.
CBC needs more Great Canadian Mullet celebrations and less of the overly sentimental superlative fest we’re getting with the 7 Wonders of Canada. Yawn! Please make it stop. Now.

I listened to the mullet piece yesterday too! Great fun… always loved Gowan. But I have to disagree with you on the 7 Wonders.. I have been enjoying it… maybe you should have nominated Air Canada!

Can you nominate the Mullet as a wonder?

Perfect, the Canadian Mullet as one of the 7 wonders. Phone it in Expandya. They’ll run it and you will be famous.

Bet Shelagh Rogers would be ALL over the Mullet as a wonder… would beat out the canoe for sure!

Hee hee! I just sent them an email offering to vote for that mullet. I mean, really, what has a canoe done for us?! Exactly. Nothing.
The mullet has provided years of entertainment.
Maybe after the baby is born I’ll get one…a mullet, I mean, not a canoe. Although I could put the baby to sleep in a canoe, right?

There was a woman on this morning talking about her nine month old girl baba who had grown a mullet. Maybe your’s will have one too. Glad you emailed them, otherwise I would have

Yes, sleep the baba in a canoe, but not the microwave, K?
