As Psy's viral hit Gangnam Style reached one billion views on Youtube, another video is putting a Canadian spin on the international dance craze.

Harper Style features a Stephen Harper lookalike clad in sunglasses and a tuxedo busting out horse-style dance moves.

"I am this country’s leader. They call me Minister Awesome," the prime minister’s doppelganger raps. "If one MP speaks out of turn, I’ll straight up freakin’ toss ‘em."

The video, created by satirical program Royal Canadian Air Farce for a New Year's Eve broadcast on CBC-TV, also features a cameo by the CBC’s George Stroumboulopoulous.
