Upon seeing Canada for the first time, [[Marge]] declared, "It's so clean and bland; I'm home!" The family toured the "Paramountie Pictures" studio lot, where they witnessed a shoot for the film ''Canadian Graffiti'': a lone actor was shown spray-painting "OBEY THE RULES" on a nondescript building. Later, Bart and [[Milhouse]] joined the Canadian basketball team. For Homer, Canada is "Little America".
