Canadia: 2056 is a comedy set in the future.
In the year 2056 the US has declared war on the Ipampilashians and has sent the American armada to destroy their planet. Canada has sent its only ship, The Canadia, in support of the American mission but the Canadia is not a warship. It's a maintenance ship (they change light bulbs and plunge toilets). Max Anderson is the first American ever to be stationed on the Canadia. He was put there by the American admiral (his mother) to toughen him up but keep him out of any real danger. The only thing that Max and the crew of the Canadia agree on is that no one wants him there.
The show pokes fun at Canada/US relations and the bureaucracy of big business/the military.
Canadia: 2056 was written by and stars Matt Watts who also wrote and starred in the Steve, The First and Steve The Second series'.
