O Canada is a Canadian animated television anthology series, broadcast in the United States, and all across the Asia-Pacific region on Cartoon Network.
The show also frequently aired in Canada on Teletoon, but not as much as it did in the United States on Cartoon Network.
One of the notable shorts featured in this series was Bob's Birthday, which would later serve as the basis for Comedy Central / Global Television Network's Bob and Margaret series, which would debut the following year.
Despite its time slot, Bob's Birthday was censored with one scene, that featured Bob nude from the waist down, edited with a maple leaf electronically superimposed over his genitalia while other mature themes remain uncensored.
[citation needed] Cartoon Network’s deal with NFB had since expired in 2002 in favor of Adult Swim.
