Less than two outs, no one on base.

Hitter A triples to deep right center and rounds third, falls down
just as throw home gets to catcher. Hitter A dives back towards third.
Catcher throws wildly to third. Hitter A gets up and runs home on wild
throw.

Does he get an RBI for scoring on the throwing error?

No. Triple for the batter. Run scores on E-2. No RBI.

For driving himself in while scoring on a throwing error? No, no RBI there.

No, he doesnt. RBI stands for "run batted in". He didnt bat himself in;
he scored on a throwing error.

Because I don't know who Canada's P.M. is now, and I suspect that most
Americans don't. Everybody knows who's President of the United
States, though.
