Because many Canadians DO. Not in Toronto.......but everywhere else in Canada, for sure. I grew up in Sault Ste. Marie and there are DEFINITELY many up there that sound like characters out of Fargo.
Why do they all talk like Minnesotans? LOL Most Canadians don't have a strong accent, that's why they're often featured in US Films because they tend to have more of a Standard American Accent than Americans.
No, we Canadians don't speak that way. Google a real video of Rob Ford. Don't forget many of the celebs you love are Canadians and speak just like you! Jim Carey, Ryan Reynolds, Mike Myers and many more.....
I'm amazed they had a cold open set in the CBC with a Canadian politician. I guess he's infamous enough that Americans have heard of him. He may be the first Toronto mayor I've heard about on the west coast, also.
As a Cannadian whose lived in QC, NB, NS, NFLD and BC, I first met Canadians with accents similar to this stereotype at around age 30... it does exist, but was surprised. That being said, having been a social recluse for much of my life, Im surprised to read the comments to see that most Canadians here believe this accent is total fiction.
wow the stereotypical Canadian accent is real. I'm from Toronto and probably majority of the city doesn't talk with that accent or says "about" or "sorry" that way either because the city has so many different cultural backgrounds and ethnicity therefore, we speak and have a little bit of an accent associated with the culture we grew up with. I would say those accents are probably found in New Found Land and Lab but not Toronto.
Diana Lewars I moved from Ontario to Alberta. Calgarians definitely have an accent different from other provinces. I've picked it up too over the last few years. But really, I think the only people here with accents are the maritimers.
@@SchlichteToven It's weird. (Literally) the only guy I have ever heard with a stereotypical "Canadian" accent is some real estate guy named Micheal Pavone (Or something like that) here in Edmonton. He's literally the ONLY Canadian I've heard with that weird accent.
Canadians have accents, but like anywhere, it differs from region to region. Look for Drake's appearance on SNL's Black Jeopardy. He does a perfect Toronto accent there
We have an accent. Some of this is exaggerated the way that you think a parody on a sketch comedy show might be. But I haver heard something very similar from Canadians.
i really dont understand how people can be so ignorant as to think that ALL canadians speak with a Newfoundland accent.... i'm from canada and work with americans who tell me i never say "eh" or "aboot" its just kind of stupid now...
I'm Canadian. Trump is an orange buffoon, no doubt about it. It's our turn to laugh at those to the south. Rob Ford was entertaining but not as entertaining as Trump is.
Come on now, friend. Imagine then how us former Eastern bloc Europeans should feel when we get collectively stereotyped as vodka-guzzling communists named Vladimir or Boris, even though we have nothing to do with Russia, neither culturally nor geographically. It's an exaggerated joke, that's all :-D
6 years later, I still have never heard a single Canadian speak with these accents haha Do Americans think that every single Canadian sounds like this from the west to the east coast?
As a Canadian who's met Canadians from every province I have to say I have never heard any Canadian stereotype accent EVER. So, if you're going to butcher the Canadian accent, which is hilarious to do, please atleast say aboot (I see that he said it the second time). Thanks. And Doug Ford for Premier of Ontario!!!
Ah, I yearn for those pastoral days when a unhinged Mayor of Toronto commanded the attention of the world. (and I'm from Toronto! And we don't say "Eh" after every friggin sentence, eh?)
Wow, you managed to squeeze three of the most patronizing words or phrases into one little comment: "triggered," "it's just a joke," and "calm down." All you're missing is "snowflake."
I'm Canadian and I love this. BTW~ To the Canadians and others complaining about the accent, that's part of the joke. Does our younger generation not have a Canadian sense of humour?
I'm almost 47. This works for me. It was funny. I have heard a version of this accent by Canadians. Let's not be so sensitive. You score easy points picking on Americans and doing their accents. Why do we get or feathers ruffled when others rib us the same way? However, I do think there should be a moratorium on Americans doing English accents or French characters in period pieces being portrayed by English actors.
In my opinion as an Ontario Canada resident. That was an awful Rob Ford impersonation The town of Toronto? I don't think I've ever heard the Town of Toronto. He would say . The Great City of Toronto ..

It's so weird that accent became a Canadian stereotype that's actually a minasota accent it's american
exactly!!
Allan Mccann I'm Canadian and nobody here talks like that
Allan Mccann lol i know
Adam Zimmerman thanks captain obvious I'm Canadian too and I never said they did I said it's weird that became our stereotype
Allan Mccann he was agreeing w/ you.
The most accurate accent of this whole bit was “you’re watching the Canadian broadcasting Corporation- thanks a bunch”
dont be that guy dude
As a canadian, these accents sound ridiculous.
They're supposed to, shitwit.
its spot on Eh!
You would think Taran Killem being married to a Canadian would like know what Canadians actually sound like
Or Lorne Michaels who IS Canadian. Fucking quizzling.
You think this is bad? It’s worse when Americans assume we all have French accents in comedy skits
why do Americans think we talk like the cast of Fargo? lol
Chantal Said cuz it's true
they got us there Eh!
pistol pete No, it's not
Exactly
Because many Canadians DO. Not in Toronto.......but everywhere else in Canada, for sure. I grew up in Sault Ste. Marie and there are DEFINITELY many up there that sound like characters out of Fargo.
lol people in southern Ontario don't have a Saskatchewan accent.
People don't sound like that in Saskabush, either.
It's a really thick accent, it seems more like a western country accent.
It sounds like people from Minnesota lol barley sounds Canadian
Why do they all talk like Minnesotans? LOL Most Canadians don't have a strong accent, that's why they're often featured in US Films because they tend to have more of a Standard American Accent than Americans.
+Pierre Grondin LeBlanc Just be happy they didn't try to talk like newfs.
+Johnny Favourite
Like a drunk sea captain.
No, we Canadians don't speak that way. Google a real video of Rob Ford. Don't forget many of the celebs you love are Canadians and speak just like you! Jim Carey, Ryan Reynolds, Mike Myers and many more.....
Rob Ford had a very strong Canadian accent. Those celebs trained away their Canadian accents to work in America.
Pierre Northwestern Ontario is adjacent to Minnesota?
We don't speak like this in Toronto lol
bro torontonians speak like jamaicans lol
Southern Canadians don't but go far enough from Toronto and you will hear these accents
Nyeaeh
Toronto people sound like Asian refugees lol
Daniel L Yeah that’s our carribean influenced style of speaking here
I’m Canadien and I have to say,
Insulting, yet hilarious
I'm amazed they had a cold open set in the CBC with a Canadian politician. I guess he's infamous enough that Americans have heard of him. He may be the first Toronto mayor I've heard about on the west coast, also.
@@marshwetland3808Rob was on Kimmel. He died shortly after that.
Canadians sound more American than Americans do nowadays.
Yeah, No kidding
I think this is a "Fargo" accent, not Canadian
He was definitely loved by people of Toronto. No matter what you guys mock here.
Not for sensible people, he hated cyclists and pedestrians
Bobby Moynihan is officially the second funniest Rob Ford impersonator of all-time. Third if you count Rob Ford himself.
Who’s first? 😂
Mark Critch
Rob Ford RIP
@@jihopark1720 ruclips.net/video/X3lfUSpKecs/видео.html
R.I.P. to the funniest Mayor in the world!
+Blagovest Zlatev Yup my Mayor
Blagovest Zlatev oh ya forgot he died
Say what you will about Rob Ford, but he wasn't racist.
What about the Cab driver he used racial slurs towards?
He spent all his free time coaching inner city kids to play football to the detriment of his political career. Actions speak way louder than words.
This is my favourite SNL sketch I’ve ever seen.
Americans, just talk in your normal accents when you play Canadians. It's literally one country away.
Why do Americans think Canadians talk with an obvious North Dakota accent?
Maybe it's just a line on a map...
@@manjsher3094 Canada is slightly larger than North Dakota.
@@atticablack but just by a little... All the best.
Maybe people from North Dakota talk like us? Not the other way around?..... discuss
Im from Toronto. They fucking nailed him xD
+You Putin Me ? not even close
Look at his eyes .. There perfect
Toronto must have been so proud.
"Woah! That's a lot of crack!" LOL
How am I only seeing this now lol comedy gold
Had he lived long enough, Chris Farley would've been perfect for this.
Ford didn't live long after this either.
Why are so many Canadians worried about how we are in the skit? It’s parody; we don’t need a fact-check.
As a Cannadian whose lived in QC, NB, NS, NFLD and BC, I first met Canadians with accents similar to this stereotype at around age 30... it does exist, but was surprised. That being said, having been a social recluse for much of my life, Im surprised to read the comments to see that most Canadians here believe this accent is total fiction.
Torontonians sound way different than these eastern Canadian accents and even this is a bit extra for eastern Canadians
oh my god the headshot
Rest In Peace Rob Ford best mayor ever 😢❤
Why? He was a disaster by all accounts
I voted for him. He had human faults but he really cared about Torontonians. I don't care for Doug anymore. Just sayin'.
Rob Ford was a legend.
Ford did alot of good for many common people
People he did not even know
He had his struggles
Rip
This could of been alot better

***** If I may ask which Province/Territory are you from? I'm from Ontario.
trueeee
or like Saskatchewan lol. Torontonians don't really have an accent. Other than not pronouncing the second T in Toronto 😁
Diana Lewars I moved from Ontario to Alberta. Calgarians definitely have an accent different from other provinces. I've picked it up too over the last few years. But really, I think the only people here with accents are the maritimers.
"a boot" is what a french would say fyi don't know about Trebek sorry Quebec ^^
just think how chris farley would have done this lol
"I'm the best mayor in the world" bit is my favourite.
Isn't this accent more like the Minnesota one than a Canadian one? Especially at the beginning.
This would have been funnier without the typical 'Canadian' accent. That is too overplayed. Way funnier just using Rob Ford's regular voice
actually eh? This accent is from Minnesota eh... an american state. Us canadians dont talk like that eh.... oh yeah...
Man.. ROB FORD was a true character 😁😎😎
1:12 - hahahahahhaahaaaa omg that was too funny.
I dropped my iPad due to laughter. That was too funny and spot on and great timing
you dropped your iPad and stepped on it and cracked the screen......now that's funny
Odd.... I've lived in Canada my whole life and the only time I hear this accent is when Americans are doing it.
Same here. I always wonder who they're encountering to make them think that's a typical Canadian accent.

I fucking miss Rob. Rip brother

Petter Ströbaek more like half detroitish nice tho
The way Taran says Toronto is pretty accurate
i really dont understand how people can be so ignorant as to think that ALL canadians speak with a Newfoundland accent....
i'm from canada and work with americans who tell me i never say "eh" or "aboot" its just kind of stupid now...
+Taylor Imrie yep I am in Ottawa and this is what you get.
+Taylor Imrie You're from Canada and you think that this is a Newfie accent? Don't travel much do ya? lol
Guy Incognito I think you miss read what she said, read it over again.
Newfoundland? Newfoundlanders don't sound anything like this.
Not gunna lie, I end most of my sentances with eh lmao. Outside of Toronto here :p
The news caster lovvvvves pausing for applause
Lol no one talks like that in Toronto
Rob Ford is actually a decent mayor.
Especially now
Nah 22 minutes on CBC did the best job on this!!
It’s a must check out!!
And lose the accent! Doesn’t make any sense
My last visit to San Francisco I had an American tell me "You don't sound Canadian, you sound American"
He looks like Rob Ford a lot
HAHAHAHAHAHA I love Mayor Rob Ford.
RIP Rob Ford
All about accents. Not enough about the mayor in the comments. Priorities psh
they sound like they're from newfoundland... inacurate but still funny
this is scary that it’s so true
The Canadian accent is hilarious 😂 as a Canadian I approve
I've only stayed in Toronto and didn't really hear it like this. This sounds more like Minnesota.
The only type of people that can mail a Canadian accent are Canadians mocking Americans trying to do a Canadian accent
American: "Say about!"
Canadian: "About."
American:"haha see... you say aboot!"
Canadian:"...................... maple syrup?"
American:"HAHAHAHAHAHA"
We dont say aboot!
+devin nore haha very funny... You must be from the south
+devin nore HAHA I love it when some people get so serious aboot it . Cheers from Vancouver
Joshua Friesen v.i here
devin nore NO ONE SAYS ABOOT NO ONE
The Rob Ford impersonation was amazing. The Ontario " accent" not even remotely close.
i hope bobby moynahan learns what Farley learnt
Toronto accents aside, I loved this and they need to make fun of Doug too.
Rob Ford...Canada's Donald Trump. Look who's laughin now!
I'm Canadian. Trump is an orange buffoon, no doubt about it. It's our turn to laugh at those to the south. Rob Ford was entertaining but not as entertaining as Trump is.
So, "Canadian" is the third option when you've been presented with "retarded or ignorant?" Think before you answer questions.
nah his brother
LMFAO at the accents. hahahahaa
I would like to point out that we had aTrump before Trump was mainstream.
Have they ever spoken to a real Canadian?
Cierra Fasken pretty sure Taran Killam has talked to his wife on occasion. Lol
Come on now, friend. Imagine then how us former Eastern bloc Europeans should feel when we get collectively stereotyped as vodka-guzzling communists named Vladimir or Boris, even though we have nothing to do with Russia, neither culturally nor geographically.
It's an exaggerated joke, that's all :-D
Yes, there have been many on the show. They sound like everyone else.
2:29 lmao 😂😂😂
We re not from Fargo North Dakota....
6 years later, I still have never heard a single Canadian speak with these accents haha Do Americans think that every single Canadian sounds like this from the west to the east coast?
Oh I'm in Hamilton and I have heard versions of this accent before.
I wish you would add Gaga's monologue from this episode
I keep singing the applause song to this day xD
1:12 H3h3, ethan.great moves, keep it up.
IT'S OK TO SMOKE METH ONCE

So, if you're going to butcher the Canadian accent, which is hilarious to do, please atleast say aboot (I see that he said it the second time). Thanks. And Doug Ford for Premier of Ontario!!!
Holy shite, Rob Ford is Chris Farley.
Ah, I yearn for those pastoral days when a unhinged Mayor of Toronto commanded the attention of the world. (and I'm from Toronto! And we don't say "Eh" after every friggin sentence, eh?)
His brother is now running for Premier of Ontario (same thing as a governor)
If we, Canadians, 'Trump' this one up I don't know what I'll do...
Just curious. What did you end up doing?
S E I mean he is the Premier now and he caused a lot of issues with cutting the funding of schools, but his covid response has been pretty good
Wait till the find out about Doug
I remember seeing Rob Ford in kfc on my way to finch station lol
bobby moynihan kinda reminds me of uncle Lucas from the Adams Family in this clip
Please start making the recent videos available in Canada again. The Tonight Show and Late Night RUclips accounts do it.
That's up to whoever licenses the content in Canada. Probably a huge corporation.
God help us if Doug Ford becomes premier.
Dolphincat613 too late I guess :(
Did he help you?
Wow, those accents are ridiculously thick; and for Torontonians? Hell, that's like if New Yorkers spoke with a southern Georgian accent.
Rip
RIP ROB FORD AND CHRIS FARLEY !!!!
lol, nice.
must be buck a beer lol
toronto is the last place you’ll find that stereotypical accent but ok snl
To all my fellow Canadians who got triggered over this, its just a joke. Calm down
Lol we're not triggered we're just saying that that isn't the accent of Canadians. Basically they got it wrong.
its an exaggerated version for comedic effect
Panda Man We know.
Panda Man merican has this always?

R.I.P rob ford Made mistakes but a cool guy
Missing an exit on a highway, is a mistake. This guy was one giant clusterfuck.
Seems like some of the USA is confused between the Quebecois and Anglophone Canadian accents.
Aboot=Quebecois French pervestion.
No one in Ontario or
As a actually viewer of CBC and a Torontonian this is ridiculous
Why does Rob Ford looks like uncle fester from Addams family.
Whoa! That's a lot of crack!! Lmao
nice
Rip rob Ford

As a Torontonian, I wish to say that Rod for was the best Mayor we had till now, RIP man Big respect
