Two Canadian comedians have fooled France's president-elect Nicolas Sarkozy with a crank phone call.
The 'Masked Defenders' - Marc-Antoine Audette and Sebastien Trudel - called Mr Sarkozy pretending to be Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
The caller apologised for his poor French skills and invited Mr Sarkozy to visit Canada to eat a popular Quebec dish of fries, cheese curds and gravy.
Mr Sarkozy accepted, but hung up when the comedian suggested they invite the US President George W Bush and said he had always wanted to host a "dinner of fools".
The comedians played a similar prank on France's outgoing President Jacques Chirac last year.

The World for People who Think
Though Sarkozy's election is a tragedy, this reminded me of one of the best comedies i ever watched, the french "Diner de cons". I hope that french people do not loose their sense of humor and through comedy to keep showing the tragic truth.
