          • Trivia
            The entire episode is a parody of the three-month Writers Guild of America strike (in a running joke, "World Canadian Bureau" is abbreviated as "WGA" in the episode) and (in the creators' opinions) its insignificant gains.
          • Goofs
            The flag of Switzerland is incorrect during the Global World Summit Leaders scenes, instead of the correct white cross on a red field, it's depicted as a red cross on a field of white.
