Martin Short has stated that the new film at O Canada! will provide a more realistic view of Canada than the original film from 1982. “I know I play different characters . . . I know at one point I play a cowboy and a guy from Cirque du Soleil. They are all little vignettes talking about different aspects of Canada.” said Short. “It’s more of a comedic look . . . it’s, shall we say, a lighthearted examination of Canada,” he continued. “It’s little vignettes and things, and I narrate it as well. There is a montage of all the kinds of, I guess, celebrity lights that have come from Canada ’cause it is an unusually disproportionate number when you think of it.” Disney hopes the updated film will help improve the country’s image.
