Right: Chong on the left and Cheech on the right.“Wise up, you douchebag,” says Cheech Marin.
“I would tell Stephen Harper to let go of George Bush’s butt,” says Chong who is from Edmonton. “Your head’s too far up there. Get your head out of his butt. He’s gone. George is gone. He’s history, Stephen."
“In fact, turn it over to other people who care about more important things.”
Richard “Cheech” Marin and Tommy Chong grew the comedy act during the 1970s and went on to become cultural icons, making a variety of films, comedy albums and appearing in numerous TV shows including "South Park", “Nash Bridges” and “That ‘70s Show.”
Their film credits include: Born in East L.A., Tin Cup, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, Cannonball Run II, The Corsican Brothers, Ghostbusters II, The Lion King, From Dusk Till Dawn, Spy Kids, Cars, Race to Witch Mountain, McHale's Navy and Life After Sex.
Cheech & Chong are on a new comedy tour and were in Montreal last week hosting for the Just For Laughs Festival. The pair are also upset that Stephen Harper's government and police are cracking down on medicinal marijuana clinics, which are perfectly legal in Canada for the treatment of arthritis, cancer and other medical conditions. Police in Quebec and Toronto have been staging raids against legal medicinal clinics, arresting people for possession of the drug despite the fact that these clinics have government permission to sell to medical patients.
“I’m insulted. As a Canadian I’m insulted that Harper would go to that length,” says Chong.
