The Grand Seduction (2003)

Really nice French-Canadian comedy.

Private companies and consultants make millions on tax advice. Wrongly filed tax returns result in fines. Need I continue?

Apparently the new slogan is "Vox Populi No DEI".

The content filtering approach to government, or, if you will, a filterocracy.

Yeah, stupid me, hitting first is the action actually leading to a good outcome. Duh!
