I am Canadian

William Shatner reveals the secret, seething capacity for violence lurking in the heart of every Canadian.

"I'm a Canadian. If the US and Canada were ever to war against each other it would be my duty to kill as many Americans as I possibly could. I'd enjoy it."

Update: Um, folks, these are bumpers from Conan O'Brien. There are a few clues here that Shatner of joking... I despair for the all too earnest dispotion of most Canadians.

I guess I am not Canadian. Was Shatner drunk or had he missed a day of his All Bran?

It's the All Bran what won it in 1812.

i hit post too soon. i was going to follow up that wacko comment with:

which is part of why i love him.

it's videos like this one, and other general things where he's totally willing to take pot shots at himself and engage in a very healthy chunk of self-mockery that make me love him.
