      I'll make it real simple for you. Get your own culture and stop stealing from those who actually have one. To me, english Canadians are comparable to parasites.
      You just apparently aren't aware that most of what you call "canadian culture" has been stolen from the francophones, including the name "Canadian". What's really cringe is that all you got is eh, aboot (oh yes, you say abOOt), "chesterfield" (lol wtf), being retarded english royal family groupies and "I'm NOT american 😭", yet somehow you manage to come up with trash like this ad. Really says everything about english canadian "culture".
      Also, constantly generalizing by saying "canadians" this "canadians" that for everything is incredibly hypocritical. Of course you're going to get called out on that bullshit.

Speaking english doesn't make you "english" but "the english" know exactly who they are and why they're called that, which is btw what they used to be called before stealing the name "Canadian" not even a hundred years ago.

    The fridge commercials were clever. They gave you all the feels. There was also an Olympic version where these fridges were in the Olympic village, and they had to unlock the fridge not just with a passport but also had to say 'I am Canadian' in five different languages.

Also, you were talking about hockey in one of your last videos. Many Canadians probably recognize some of the 70s hockey footage from the anthem commercial as the 72 Canada vs Russia series - even those of us who weren’t born until long after it happened.

    Yay thanks so much for finally getting around to this video. The rant is iconic, somebody jokingly said that when you become Canadian that you have to take that pledge. I love the fridge commercials, they're great, there's a bunch of them. I also love the anthem it's a great song and yes shows many clips of Canadian culture. Thanks again for another great video, keep them coming, my name is Lala and I AM CANADIAN!!!

    Canadian viewers who are much older can attest that another Canadian beer company (Carling) had the best commercials on tv. Carling Red Cap Ale had a series of ads in 1960’s with the Red Cap anthem. Every Canadian knew the words and could sing along. Red cap flags flew from campsites and car antennas. These ads are all on RUclips and will blow away Canadians that weren’t around at the time

    • @cathywithac

    Several references to the 1972 Summit Series you may not recognize. It was a Cold War era 8 game hockey challenge - Canada vs Russia. Technically the USSR. It was 4 games in each country. An epic moment in our history where sport merged with political ideals. It was like Democracy playing against Communism to prove systematic superiority.
    It was a very heated battle. At one point in Russia soldiers surround the Canadian bench with firearms. The players had to save the event organizer Alan Eagleson from being abducted. In hindsight we should have handed him over. He was the infamous lawyer that as a player agent stole a huge amount of money from the legendary superstar Bobby Orr.
    After game four in Vancouver, Phil Esposito’s personal rant to the fans was seen as the turning point in the eventual Canadian victory. He basically gave fans shit for booing them.
    The Russian team was literally a team of Russian soldiers. They were great players and it was 1972, the height of steroid misuse, so they were juiced to the max. They prepared for months for the challenge. The Canadian team on the other hand was led to believe it would be a cake walk and showed up in September out of shape after a summer of drinking beer and fishing. They had to dig deep to pull this one out.
    To many of us, taking on the USSR one on one was one of our most defining moments as a nation. I was in sixth grade at the time. The Games in Russia were on midday but they were played live in almost every school classroom in the country.

    You have made my day, Tyler. Joe's Rant is always a delight (actor is Jeff Douglas), there is a version done by William Shatner.
    Have not heard The Anthem in ages. The Canada-Russia hockey series in 1972 was a huge deal for us, the country essentially stopped for each game. The first set was in Canada, the second set was in Russia. Came down to a final goal by Paul Henderson and the country went wild. It began the influx of European players into our game and vice versa.
    The Beer Fridge Ads were a delight and the one where people have to say "I am Canadian" in several languages to get the fridge to open is a favourite.
    Your Budweiser ads with the Clydesdales is the closedt you have and those are pretty great, too.
    As for log burling, that was mostly from log driving in the Eastern forests, a bit different out here in the West

    Look up the Log Drivers' Waltz.
    It is a classic Canadian folk song I believe from the 70s, written by a couple of classic Canadian icons, Kate & Anna McGarrigle.
    (One was married to Loudon Wainwright jr. And their son is Rufus Wainwright.)
    The Log Drivers Waltz was made into a beautiful animated short movie featuring the now-iconic song.
    Much of Canada as it is today was built on logging.

    The Rant was the second of six commercials prepared for the second season of the I Am Canadian campaign. The first one was not bad, but since forgotten, and this aired in around February 2020. The other four disappeared because The Rant touched how Canada wanted to be and feel. It started being played in movie theatres and sports events to boost up the audience. Molson didn’t have to pay for the vast majority of the airings it got as a result.
    Oh, the guy that did The Rant as Joe - he is actually an American.

I was never a beer drinker but loved these commercials overall for the patriotic feelings evoked. Back when these were being aired, Molson Canadian and Labatt's Blue were the 2 most popular beers by the general masses. Most of these commercials were aired during Hockey Night in Canada, a very popular show with a high beer drinking viewer base. 🥰🇨🇦

    Ah, the feels with these! First off, The Rant. Yeah, it's definitely funny in its own right from a comedic aspect but up here in Canada it really does evoke a huge sense of patriotism in all of us who remember this when it first came out. I don't know how to explain it, but it's a thing to have it make you feel an overwhelming amount of Canadian patriotism to the point that it gives you chills. The Anthem, if you were in your bar scene of your life when this came out (which I was, my province has a legal age of 18) then it wasn't unheard of to have this song played at the bar and you couldn't even hear the music because we would all sing along to it so loudly and proudly. It sounds crazy as I write it, but it was a legit thing and I remember those moments so fondly. Holy boats, the nostalgia in watching these is so overwhelming, ha ha.

I think now the is a prohibition on advertising any alcoholic beverages
