I thought you were going to bring up a commercial from some years ago, that was advertising winter tires & tuneups or something. The supposed Canadian police chase, if you don't have your winters on:

Or maybe the Mad Trapper of Rat River. Took a while, what with gun battles, winter chases in the arctic, dynamiting a cabin, and a final shootout, but the Mounties finally got their man in 1932.

Interesting story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Johnson_(criminal)

And this caught my eye:

"After the explosion collapsed the building, the men tried to rush in. Johnson opened fire from a five-foot dugout beneath the ruins."

I think I saw that trick in a movie plot once, perhaps with Clint Eastwood.

How about this prison break Canadian style. They got away because prison guards in Quebec are "unarmed". In Canada the guards can't be polite to the inmates if they are armed.
