Credited with being the film single-handedly responsible for bill C-10, a new Canadian bill that would give the federal Heritage Department the power to deny funding for films and TV shows it considers offensive. Eventually, due to public outcry and the film's success, the bill was rescinded.
The film held a private screening for the Canadian Government in an effort to stop bill C-10, a censorship amendment that would stop "offensive" films from getting funding. The governing party refused to see it, however the opposition parties watched it.
The movie was shot in 5 bedrooms.
There are 258 swear words in the film (averaging just under 3 per minute). The word fuck is said 178 times.
The film makers found out that their film was selected to screen at the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival on July 6th 2007, which, coincidentally, was the director's 30th birthday.
