Nothing on their fan page as of yet, to who will be on the show, but I believe that the show was pre-recorded earlier in the week.

Yes, that's right folks.....you heard it here first!
Having caught election fever, tonight George Stroumboulopoulos makes Canadian & International headlines by being the first reporter in history to interview the soon to be, 44th President of the United States, immediately following the election.*

(This would be the place where George shakes his head and says "no not really".)

Wait are you guys saying that OBAMA or McCain is gonna be on tonight?!?!
That is awesome!
No not really. The Hour is preempted tonight for some election coverage.
Excuse me? We are Canadian. Why is The Hour preempted?
That is a very good question! I don't know. I know I will not be watching US election coverage tonight. I was thinking it would be a great night to listen to music.
Anon @ 7:42...you are quite right, we are Canadian. While we might not care to admit it, the fact is that huge events in the US can and will affect us. Remember that little problem in September 2001? That is why CANADIAN soldiers are dying in Afghanistan. If they can sacrifice their lives because of events in the US, then I think you can sacrifice The Hour for one night.
Thanks for adding the line about George shaking his head. I almost fell for it! Is that a jab at Stephen Harper?
That is fantastic. I learned so much from your post and am looking over the rest of your blog now. I will let others know about your blog. Ashley
