Launched in 1993 during Canada 's 35th general election, the show focuses on Canadian politics with a combination of news parody, sketch comedy and satirical editorials. Originally featuring Cathy Jones, Rick Mercer, Greg Thomey and Mary Walsh, the series featured satirical sketches of the weekly news and Canadian political events. The show 's format is a mock news program, intercut with comic sketches, parody commercials and humorous interviews of public figures. The on - location segments are frequently filmed with slanted camera angles. Its full name is a parody of This Hour Has Seven Days, a CBC newsmagazine from the 1960s ; the `` 22 Minutes '' refers to the fact that a half - hour television program in Canada and the U.S. is typically 22 minutes long with eight minutes of commercials. Jones and Walsh had previously worked together on the sketch comedy series CODCO, on which Thomey sometimes appeared as a guest. Mercer had been a notable young writer and performer on his own, touring several successful one - man shows of comedic political commentary. Salter Street Films produced the series until the 2003 -- 2004 season. Salter Street was acquired in 2001 by Alliance Atlantis, and production of the series was transferred directly to Alliance Atlantis in the twelfth season. In 2005, Halifax Film, a new company formed by Salter co-founder Michael Donovan, produced the show, but was acquired by DHX Media in 2006, which has produced the show since. Recognized with 24 Gemini Awards and 11 Canadian Comedy Awards, 22 Minutes is broadcast on the CBC Television network. It is taped before a live audience in Studio 1 at CBHT in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The series, which originally aired on Mondays for several seasons and later on Fridays, currently airs Tuesdays at 8 : 30pm on CBC, after the Rick Mercer Report.

'' The object is to see how little some Americans know about their northern neighbours. The piece was so popular that the CBC had Mercer create a one - hour TV special based on the segment. It became the highest rated comedy special in Canadian television history when it aired on Canada Day, 2001. Some truly memorable bits include Mercer getting Americans to say `` Congratulations Canada on legalizing VCRs ! '' and getting a professor at Princeton University to sign a petition against the re-starting of the Annual Toronto Polar Bear Hunt. In an election 2000 segment, he convinced then - Governor of Texas George W. Bush that Canada 's Prime Minister Jean Chrétien was named Jean Poutine and that he was supporting Bush 's candidacy.

Famous stunts Jean Poutine 1999 -- 2000 -- During the 2000 American election, Rick Mercer approached Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush on a campaign stop in Michigan, asking for comment on the news that Bush had received the endorsement of Canadian prime minister `` Jean Poutine ''. The then - prime minister 's name was Jean Chrétien, and he had not endorsed Bush -- it is standard practice for the Canadian government not to endorse anyone in a foreign election. Bush -- who had previously stated that `` you ca n't stump me on world leaders '' -- acknowledged the purported endorsement with a short statement to the 22 Minutes cameras, which aired as part of the show 's regular Talking to Americans feature. The Talking To Americans segments -- and eventual one - hour special -- were produced and directed by Geoff D'Eon. In his first official state visit to Canada four years later, Bush joked that his `` one regret '' about the visit was that he 'd `` hoped to meet Jean Poutine. '' Stockwell / Doris petition 2000 -- 01 -- Often cited as the show 's best joke, the sketch was aired during the 2000 federal election campaign, and consisted of a staged rant by Rick Mercer. During the 2000 federal election, then - Canadian Alliance leader Stockwell Day proposed a mechanism to call for a referendum. A petition on any particular subject which gathered at least 350,000 signatures of voting age citizens ( `` 3 % of the electors '' ) would automatically trigger a national referendum. Mercer 's `` rant '' asked viewers to log on to the 22 Minutes website, and sign an online petition asking the party leader to change his name to Doris Day ( after the singer / actress ). Producers claim to have obtained in excess of 1,200,000 online votes. This was cheerfully admitted to be a stunt unhampered by the rigours of an Elections Canada - controlled petition. Although the sketch had no effect on Alliance policy, it did obtain international publicity for the show and contributed to the general air of farce surrounding Day 's election campaign. Day did, however, have a very appropriate response to the petition : `` Que será, será ''. Oilers vs Canadiens 2003 -- 04 -- Shaun Majumder, in character as `` Raj Binder '', was sent to report on the 2003 outdoors Edmonton Oilers and Montreal Canadiens old timers game, preceding the night 's actual NHL regular season game, which was the first NHL game to be played outdoors ( at Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton ). Majumder actually sneaked into all the team photos, causing uproar from the event 's unwitting organizers in the days after, when the photos were released to the press. Marg ambushes Rob Ford On October 24, 2011, Walsh reprised the role of `` Marg, Princess Warrior '', conducting an ambush interview of Toronto Mayor Rob Ford at his home, which aired on 22 Minutes the following evening. Ford 's reaction and alleged verbal abuse directed at a 911 operator made national headlines. Ford claimed that he had never seen nor heard of 22 Minutes. Controversies Typeface used in logo up to 2009 On November 17, 2004, clips of a sketch for 22 Minutes were released, in which MP Carolyn Parrish stomped on a George W. Bush doll and performed voodoo on its head, where she said `` it would do the least damage ''. The incident sparked significant outrage from the opposition Conservatives, who argued that it had the potential to damage diplomatic relations between Canada and the United States. As a result of the incident Parrish was expelled from the Liberal Party and sat the remainder of her term as an Independent. Richard Martineau wrote a column in Le Journal de Montréal criticizing a sketch aired October 7, 2007 entitled `` Quebec Nation ''. In the sketch, two characters discussed the state of affairs after a separation from Canada, which left them with `` no roads, no towns, not even radio. The only things we take ( sic ) is our racism ''. Martineau also discussed the fact that This Hour Has 22 Minutes is broadcast by the CBC and is funded by funds also coming from Quebec. In May 2015, the American sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live aired a sketch in which a contestant on a Win, Lose or Draw - style game show panicked at being asked to draw the Muslim prophet Muhammad, igniting allegations that SNL had plagiarized a nearly identical sketch which aired on 22 Minutes in January.
