Just for Laughs festival promo pokes fun at Quebec’s language issues

MONTREAL – Jean-François Lisée, Quebec’s minister responsible for the anglophone community has come under fire for a Just For Laughs Promo.

In the advert, Lisée and Andy Nulman, the head of Just for Laughs, had a little laugh together to promote this summer’s festival –  and it all centred on language and culture.

In the YouTube video, Nulman and Lisée poke fun at the “pastagate” affair. They also talk about comic Sugar Sammy going over to the the dark side.
