Here is the funniest Canadian joke as determined by Discovery Canada in a week long marathon of jokes.

Overheard, a radio conversation between a U.S. naval ship and Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland.

Canadian: "Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees south to avoid a collision."

American: "Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees north to avoid a collision."

Canadian: "Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees south to avoid a collision."

American: "This is the captain of a U.S. navy ship. I say again, divert your course."

Canadian: "No. I say again, divert your course."

American: "This is the U.S. carrier USS Lincoln, the second largest ship in the U.S. Atlantic Fleet. We are accompanied by 3 cruisers, 8 destroyers, 2 submarines and numerous support vessels. I demand you change your course 15 degrees north! I say again, that's 15 degrees north or countermeasures will be taken to ensure the safety of this ship."

Canadian: "This is the lighthouse. Your call."
