Satire

"It's Friday August 6th, and Toronto is still reeling from Clinton-mania.

The former US President was in Ontario's capital yesterday signing copies of his new autobiography. More than 2,000 people lined up for the chance to shake his hand leaving fans in the rest of Canada disappointed that Toronto was his only stop.

Currently, Bill Clinton had made plans to tour Canada's two other biggest cities, but after learning thongs and berets were common attire in Montreal, Hillary struck that city from the list. And since he's never actually inhaled, his handlers felt there was just no point in heading to Vancouver after all.

This is the Current."


Bill Clinton

He may be out of the Oval Office, but former US president Bill Clinton continues to attract as many headlines, admirers -- and, of course, critics -- as ever.

These days, though, it's not his work in the Middle East or his affairs in the White House that are the subject of attention instead, it's his new autobiography, My Life.

Yesterday, President Clinton was in Toronto to sign copies of his memoir and our host, Adrian Harewood had a chance to speak with him one-on-one.

are you scared, mad, happy, hungry or just a fan of playboy magazine?

(I'm sure none of it makes sense, but maybe that's the look I'm going for)
