Hey, look: it’s the press secretary to the U.S. President. And he’s wearing a Team Canada sweater. Hilarious! Okay, it’s not hilarious yet, but it will be after you get through with it. Right? RIGHT??

The field of entries will be narrowed to five finalists on Tuesday morning. The winner will receive an Amazon.ca gift certificate courtesy of Feschuk.Reid, the speechwriting and communications firm that is proud to have had absolutely nothing to do with Tiger Woods’ Mommy-hugging address, Jim Flaherty’s crossroads metaphor and John Furlong’s French. Feschuk.Reid: You’re richer than you think.
