“Deceased Rob Ford’s brother, Doug Ford, is running for premier of Ontario which is like governor I was told,” Kimmel said.
“The Ford family … it’s a dynasty. That’s a Canadian dynasty. So if you ever had any thought that Canada was a peaceful place … we have our share of characters as well,” Bee told Kimmel.
Kimmel asked Bee if she feels like Canadians pay more attention to what’s going on in their government than Americans do.
She continued: “My family is very concerned for my life.”

“They think it’s such a dangerous and decrepit place now,” Bee told Kimmel. “My dad bought me a Kevlar vest.”
Kimmel asked her if her dad also bought a Kevlar vest for her husband, Daily Show alum Jason Jones.
“No, just me,” Bee said. “There’s a limit to my father’s affection.”
