   Matt Garvey to All   
   Notes for YABF14 (D'oh Canada) and repea

   The Simpsons are going to Canada! Add a bunch of Canada jokes, upstate New   
   York jokes, America jokes (and current-events jokes), and a plot where Lisa   
   wants to stay but then comes back, and simmer for a measly 21 minutes   
   (including credits), and you get    
   this episode. Eh. (That's a dismissive eh, not a Canadian one, eh?)   
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   7F18: Will you take us to Mount Splashmore?   
   3F18: Utica appears on the show after all this time (though no Chalmers joke)   
   7F19: On asbestos in school   
   8F06: The pony Lisa had for a week   
      
   Meta stuff   
   In the same framing as the opening sequence, Mr. Largo reminds the class it's   
   been working on the same song for 30 years   
   YABF14 appears on both a license plate (after several other pcodes of what   
   feel like random episodes) and Ned Flanders' passport   
      
   YABF08 dedication note   
   On 4/14, "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" ran again, minus the 3/10 dedication to   
   Luke Perry, and with decompressed credits. As it happens, the 4/21 repeat of   
   the Family Guy episode that originally also ran 3/10 also dropped a Luke Perry   
   dedication.    
   Surprise.
