OTTAWA – Less than a week after pledging to defend Netflix from any form of taxation, Prime Minister Stephen Harper has continued to rave about the many tv shows and movies available on the service, especially a documentary he watched about the plight of missing and murdered Aboriginal women.
“It was so compelling and heartbreaking,” raved the PM from the low ceilinged basement where he watches all his entertainment. “I just kept thinking wow, why isn’t anyone doing anything about this?”
“I’m so glad I decided to watch this instead of re-watching the Hunger Games again,” added Harper.
Entitled The Forgotten, the documentary is a scathing indictment of a supposedly progressive nation that has turned its back on Aboriginal women, and a government that has been willfully blind to the problem. Harper watched it over beers with his buddy Peter Mackay.
“At first it was a little slow. Like we get it, life on reserves suck. But once the murders started happening, it got real juicy,” said the outgoing Justice Minister.
At press time Harper “wasn’t in the mood” for a documentary on climate change right now.
