I didn't even know Michael Moore made a movie, i thought he only did documentaries, which I like by the way. Canadian Bacon is a great parody, full of irony and sarcasm, the kind of humor you only get if you understand that Canada is in everything better than the USA. Republicans probably won't find it funny, well I doubt they'll get the irony, they will probably find it offending. Canadians on the other hand should love this movie, it portrays everything that is good about Canada and it ridicules the whole American system, which is totally deserved if you ask me. If you have an ounce of honesty in your body you can't deny everything is better in Canada, except the weather which is basically the only thing that keeps people wanting to live over there, but all the rest is just better. You can make fun, or try to make fun, of Canadians but in the end the joke's on you. About the movie, the story is quite stupid, but it fits the whole ironic plot, the acting is what it is, simple but not bad. It's always nice to watch John Candy again, for that alone it's already worth watching or rewatching.
