The Prime Minister visits Santa

Scene: A department store in downtown Ottawa.

"Well, little--uh--fellow, what's your name?"

"Stevie."

"And have you been a good boy this year?"

"I haven't prorogued Parliament once."

"Well then, what would you like for Christmas, Stevie?"

"Could I have Justin Trudeau's hair?"

"Sorry, Stevie--that model is no longer available."

"How about Tom Mulcair's beard? You know, for a more manly look?"

"That's already been claimed by Leona Aglukkaq."

"That's a very unkind thing to say."

"Listen, you think it's easy sitting here saying 'ho ho ho' all bleeping day? A guy's gotta have a break now and then, get back his inner Don Rickles. And does anyone ever ask me what I want for Christmas? Oh, no--it's all gimme gimme gimme."

"Well, Mr. Claus., what would you like for Christmas?"

"A minority government in 2015."

"(Gulp)"

"With Rick Mercer as Prime Minister. Now get off my lap, kid--here comes Wally Buono."
