Levi the Mounted Lion Bio (Updated)

Name: Levi the Mounted Lion (or Levi the Mountee Lion)
Real Name: Levi Peterson
Nationality: Canadian
Occupation(s): (past and present) Royal Canadian Mountee, Canadian Prime Minister, clown and later brass section leader of the marching band for the popular Canadian traveling circus company Circus Delights, ambassador to the U.S., and opera singer and performer. (He sings tenor.) He also voices himself in a now-popular cartoon based on Circus Delights.
Time Period of Birth: July 1, 1950
Birthplace: Ottawa, Canada
Clothing: Standard Royal Mountee uniform when on the job; standard Canadian military uniform when in battle; he also wields a saber and plays the bugle.
Superpower: His saber summons ice to balance with Leonhard's fire abilities. His bugle can sound various volumes and distracts enemies in the same way Leonce's piano music does.
Interests: All things Canadian; its history, cultures, and customs; ceremonial fife/drum and bugle/drum music of both the USA and the Commonwealth, and full band military marches of both categories. He especially enjoys all music the Krieglandonians play.
Personality: Super staunch defender of his beliefs and the nation he represents, but always friendly towards both locals and foreigners. He often hums or sings "O Canada" to himself.
Languages Spoken: French and English
Quotes: "O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!"
"We have our differences, but we are the world."
"Freeze!"
Bio Notes: Along with the other parallels, he disappeared for a time after the Rio 2016 Olympics (as a result of Leo losing his temper when the Mongolians lost a bronze medal wrestling match and protested by taking their clothes off). Upon his return, Canada welcomed him back with open arms, and he gave an apology to his people for leaving them abruptly.

Levi does not live in the same area as Furious Fox, so the two had never met until the freak accident that brought all the parallels together. But since he was born after Leo the Patriotic Lion (Leo was born in 1946), he did not arrive in the same way the other parallels did, by means of non-damaging earthquake and portal. Instead, the others met him naturally.

After losing his temper at Justin Trudeau due to the Prime Minister's lax views on certain topics such as illegal immigration, leading several liberal MPs to resign and leading literally all of Canada to fall silent (as well as earning a demerit from Super C), Levi ended up joining Parliament as a Conservative MP. (He had thoughts about becoming the next dictator and enforcing a junta similar to the one Richard Jones leads, but it didn't happen.) He also snapped because there were a group of strippers stripping to protest against Trudeau.

To signify Leo's talents in percussion, each of his American parallels from the 19th century and earlier has a drummer to accompany him, as well as the British parallel, Robert the Redcoat Lion. Levi wasn't thought originally to have a drumming partner until the Marching Wonder's friend, Blue, mentioned Lyon. Once Lyon was discovered, Blue was asked to promise never to jinx the G-52s again. Some panicked at it, while others claimed Blue was a prophet and knew absolutely everything.

UPDATES: For reasons he can't explain, Levi likes to watch any reruns of Doctor Who that are broadcast (partially because he likes the theme tune a lot).

Levi had an embarrassing meltdown when he fired a significantly large portion of Parliament, suspending it by definition, when he caught them passing around photos of Justin Trudeau in brownface (after it was revealed to the public that he had done this for a talent show), and he lost the next election as a justified punishment, while Trudeau was put back in. Then nostalgia bit the Canadian public, and after Trudeau was kicked out of the office a second time (resulting from a coup led by Dissident raccoon hacker Rainier Belrose), Levi was voted back into the office again!

Levi plans to retire for good by the time Canada has its next election, even if the public still tries to vote him in again (there are people who have done this, similar to a problem Leo the Patriotic Lion has about Americans trying to vote him in as President).

MORE UPDATES: Levi's second term as Prime Minister ended on an embarrassing note when during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, his nation's women's soccer coaches were brought before him so he could say some choice words to them when they were caught using drones to spy on the team from New Zealand. During that time, the U.S. and Canada had an agreement going where whichever nation had more gold medals from the Olympics (with silver, then bronze, then grand total being used to break a tie; if still tied, a special sporting event would break the tie) would win temporary sovereignty of a disputed island between the two, Machias Seal Island. However, Levi told the coaches that because they were willing to cheat to win, he was voiding this agreement, and the coaches were the reason the nation would never have the island again. As a result, Machias Seal Island now forever belongs to the U.S. alone.

Levi was punished and fined accordingly, even though he subsequently became the most ridiculed individual in history thanks to hateful stand-up comedy, hurtful social media posts, etc. The hatred ended once Leonce the Romantic Lion (Levi's French counterpart) as well as Leo the Patriotic Lion made their own declarations telling the world to shut up and stop it, with Leonce using the following hashtag: #leavelevialone. Although he was not sentenced to the Greenlandic White House of Shame, he went there voluntarily, and while he was there, he was summoned to Zanta's world, Eterna, for a darkness checkup. Yet because his disappearance was caught on camera, and then leaked (due to a glitch in the cameras), the world thought he was dead. Instead, he went through acceptance training, anger management courses, and loads of other punishments. (IC2, the successor to CNG, also stopped torturing the humans and spent all its time trying to kill Levi off itself, throwing the lion into a coma. When he awoke several days later, the scary nightmares were enough to convince him to think before he spoke, instead of just acting on impulse.)

The twist, however, came when the royal family of Eterna took to heart someone's saying: "If you're going to be a clown, go work in a circus!" The decision was made to make humiliation the sincerest form of punishment, and thus, have Levi be a circus clown for two weeks. However, the royal family originally chose the wrong circus: the Wolfton Bros. Circus, whose ringmaster was a very cruel wolf that treated his performers like crap, and made them do dangerous things that could cost them their lives if something went wrong. Thus, the clown act Levi would have done was meant to look like it would kill him for real, since the wolf used dark magic to overrule the immortality curse CNG had given Levi, although the royal family later reversed that once they found out. The wolf then agreed to have Levi drummed out with the "Rogue's March."

However, the wolf's younger brother, Drill Sergeant McNasty (an ex-military officer that was kicked out of the military for unnecessary roughness), suddenly stormed in and proclaimed he was taking over the punishments for Levi, adding to his already large and humiliating list of menial work, chores, and other punishments, ranging from a 1,000 mile-hike with a bass drum on his back (similar to other marching punishments enacted on the G-52s and allies that didn't behave themselves), to having to clean the bathrooms with a toothbrush. McNasty, however, decided Levi was worthy of the death penalty just for existing, but chose crucifixion as the method of death.

Fortunately, Circus Delights, a struggling Canadian traveling circus company founded by a yellow lab named Landon Roberts (who had become its ringmaster upon the death of Harold Lyons, a liger that previously the ringmaster), was having moderate success in Eterna, and Landon overheard McNasty mumbling to himself that he was going to nail Levi, so he sent Art Gibson, an American drum horse that played bass drum in the circus band, to check it out. Art could turn invisible, so he did, and he walked around until he came across McNasty telling Levi he was going to crucify him. He reported what he heard, and Landon reported it to the royal family, who had already been telling McNasty off for his behavior. (Coincidentally, Cripto was in the Academy at the time, and he informed Super C.)

Landon then offered to have Levi be in his circus instead, as well as rescue the other performs from the Wolfton Bros. Circus; as a result, Circus Delights, thanks to Levi's 25 clown shows (only the first five of which were the actual punishment) and his eventual joining of the band (in which he plays trumpet), suddenly came from nowhere to be the most popular furry circus on planet Earth today. (Levi later discovered he could sing operatically; this is because when IC2 was putting all its efforts and time into torturing him to death, it eventually ceased to exist because it could no longer bear the strain of doing it, and so it decided that with its last living breath, it would give the lion the voice of an operatic tenor, similar to Luciano Pavarotti. He subsequently began to sing for everybody, and the circus band, which can double as a symphony orchestra thanks to its talented musicians and its conductor, a coydog named Samuel P. McGrath, began backing him up.) The circus eventually became an ICH (intangible cultural heritage) of Canada.

NOTES: Other rescued performers from the Wolfton Bros. now performing with Circus Delights include Mortimer Mertzon (Tenacious Timpanist), a Minotaur percussionist, a few other band members, and the acrobatic troupe of bobcats known as the Flying Fabulosos. Later, the Sultans of Strength (five white lions that make up the strongman acts of the circus) also revealed they had been with the Wolfton Bros., and also owe their eternal thanks to Levi.

After Levi reconciled with and apologized to everybody, Parliament worked with him to make his official status and record as retiring from politics so that he would not be impeached (although a vote just for fun revealed he would not have been impeached; instead, his "death" was ruled as the reason for permanently disqualifying him from being the Prime Minister again). Rainier Belrose, the Dissident who saved Levi's life, became Prime Minister in the interim, and after the latest election, the premiership now belongs to Levi's other Canadian parallel, Lyon the Northern Lion. Lyon and Rainier appointed Levi as Canadian ambassador to the U.S. to help him find true redemption afterwards (after Leo lost the election to Donald Trump, which angered the world at first, but because Leo is now Secretary-General to the U.N., the world has calmed down).

Although ambassador, Levi still has occasions where he plays his trumpet with the Circus Delights band, and at other times, he sings. He also voices a fictional version of himself for a new children's show entitled "Circus Delights: The Animated Series."

Circus Delights as a whole loves music so much, that its performers (including the ringmaster, Landon the Labrador) all even sing as their own choir, especially if they're backing up Levi.
