Comedian John Oliver made a secret trip to Connecticut last week to help cut the ribbon on a sign naming a sewage treatment plant in his honour.

Danbury's City Council voted earlier this month to rename the sewage plant "The John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant," following a tongue-in-cheek battle that began with an expletive-filled rant against the city on HBO's "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" in August.

Oliver offered to donate US$55,000 to local charities if Danbury actually followed through with the idea.

Why is CTV so obsessed with American Events, and by the way, who the hell is John Oliver?

Fitting tribute.

Ironic. Sewage plants typically remove the toxic bits from our society, while CTV creates more sewage with every headline.
