Arnold will soon declare war on Canada

EDMONTON (CP) — California’s governor-elect fell for a prank by an Alberta radio station that pretended it was calling him from the Canadian prime minister’s office this week.
A disc jockey from Edmonton classic rock station CKBR-FM (The Bear) at 101.7 FM was connected with Arnold Schwarzenegger under the guise the radio host was calling from the “Office of the Prime Minister of Canada, one Prime Minister Huber.”
The disc jockey adopted a bad French accent and at first exchanged pleasantries with Schwarzenegger, who laughed as he accepted congratulations from the phoney prime minister.
“The people of Canada, my wife, uh, we’re all big fans of you and we think you’re going to do a great job,” the DJ assured Schwarzenegger during the Thursday call.
“Well, thank you, thank you very much and hopefully we can do something together,” Schwarzenegger replied.
Schwarzenegger then talked about some of his plans for California before the DJ began laying it on thick.
“Mr. Schwarzenegger, up here in Canada I have a very big caucus. My defence minister, Don Cherry, he is a big fan of your movie, the one with the robot.”
Cherry appears on CBC-TV as a commentator for National Hockey League games.
After a few more exchanges in which Schwarzenegger begins to grow skeptical, the line was disconnected.
