Line 21:
* [[Colbert Bump]]: If a book wins, watch it go out of stock at bookstores in Canada. ''Quickly.''
* [[Product Placement]]: [[Played With]], because playing this trope straight is frowned upon by the [[CBC]]. The books that are up for discussion and elimination are definitely products, but the defenders choose them from a list provided by the CBC, not by the publishers.
* [[Spoiler]]s: Occasionally slip out, given the assumption that everybody who's watching or listening to the discussion has read all of the books.
* [[There Can Be Only One]]: As much as the defenders might like some or all of the books, only one book each year can be named the book that [[Title Drop|Canada reads]].
* [[Voted Off the Island]]: Or, in this case, off the bookshelf. One book is eliminated each day by a vote of all five of the books' defenders.
