Hanky Panky is a 2020 painting by Two-spirit Cree artist Kent Monkman. It depicts a laughing group of Cree women as they watch Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Monkman's alter ego Miss Chief Share Eagle Testickle prepare for consensual[1] anal fisting,[2] while past Canadian leaders look on.[2] [1] Kent Monkman generated controversy by suggesting that the scene was a consensual act[1] by including a reference to the hanky code.[3] [4]
In 2020, Hanky Panky was purchased by Canadian lawyer and author Howard Levitt, who wrote a column in the National Post about his decision to purchase the painting.[5]
