[0:02] is part of the town's annual Halloween

[0:04] celebration. Now, apparently, it sounds

[0:06] pretty ghoulish, but apparently

[0:08] someone's coffin accidentally [music]

[0:10] slid

[0:11] and that's how it started. We'll see you

[0:13] at 11:00. Good night. [laughter]

[0:24] On the eve of the vote that could tear

[0:26] Canada apart, the final rallies to
