Virgin Mobile Canada has Eliot Spitzer's number

Canadians are a curious lot. They insist they have their own identity and get insulted when you confuse them with Americans, but at the end of the day, they're still more interested in our culture than their own.

Case in point, this print ad for Virgin Mobile Canada: Neither Eliot Spitzer or "Client 9" have anything to do with their local audience, but who on earth would recognize a Canadian politician?

Anyway, I could get on some moral high horse about how tasteless this ad is but "The Prisoner" joke is ten times funnier than anything we could come up. See client no. 9 is in the house or Turning on the governer for what I'm talking about.
