@spxrklinqkxwis1838 ain't that the truth. Northern Alberta, especially far north around the Ft. McMurray, Athabasca, and Slave Lake areas, winter starts in mid to late October with temperatures averaging about -15, with overnight lows into the -20's. Around mid November, the daytime average is about -27 with overnight lows around -30 to -35. By the time you're into December/January, the day time average is -40 and overnights are -45 or colder, and this is all depending on the weather. Coldest day I say working in the oil patch was -46 and that was 2°C from being to cold to work because the cold steel derrick would become too brittle to pull the rod out of the hole.
Once in the blankets at home. You get ready to go outside. You're freeze, after a minute or two. You feel warm and nice. Once you go back inside. Heat wave washes over you.

exactly.. I see this SO often.. people use nice and polite interchangeably and are unable to differentiate between nice/friendly and polite/mannered. I'm sure there are very nice people in Canada as there are everywhere but somehow this got incorporated into polite.
You know what’s fun for Canadians going in an outdoor hot tub getting too hot then getting out and making snow angles it stings and feels amazing at the same time
I've done that in Canada and it was amazing. The Finnish equivalent is cutting a hole in the lake ice and jumping straight in from sauna. It's a wild feeling
It's weird how the first -10 C of winter seem very cold, but later on when we get -20, we find -10 more tolerable. In the spring, 0 C feels warm during the day. It's the circle of life, Canadian edition.
So true when I was a kid and it would hit like 4°C outside in the spring after a very cold winter I’d be asking my mom if I could wear shorts she’d always say no and I’d get too hot at school during the day
Oh no. This was "real". I was working fire alarm systems testing. We both saw something move across the front of the balcony. We were confused and way up from car headlight shadows.

Roots is a Canadian clothing brand. It was the clothing supplier to the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Every world team had their clothes. They are warm, durable, athletic wear. Love their sweatpants and hoodies.
They also did the 2002 Olympics. I remember taking all my Christmas money at the time and buying one of the Olympic hoodies when they went on sale after the Games were over.
I think nearly all Canadians have grey socks with the white cuff, toe and heal, and red stripe around the white cuff. It's mandatory winter wear, regardless of how well dressed up you are otherwise.
Same with springtime mud-snow melt and fall rotting leaves mud. Just overall it's gross to bring your dog shit and dirt covered shoes into someone's house. A lot of people still have wall to wall carpeting too.
@Shan_Dalamani Aw, I never found him creepy. Maybe it's cuz he's such an old mascot he's got that odd vintage look that can be off putting to young folk
17:00 Kopke is HILARIOUS with his canadian humor. The series he does about the provinces as roommates and the series about the drivers in each province are AMAZING. 10/10 canadian humor
Most Canadian thing ever is when you go to a little town in the middle of a forest on a big beautiful lake in the winter, go Tobogganing down a bunch of hills for fun, trying to get your dog on the sled, while you buy for a dollar some maple taffy from a nice old grandpa who’s wearing a checkered flannel while you dodge deer on the road on your way home. (For those who don’t know: Maple taffy is where they get a barrel and shove a bunch of snow in it (clean snow) and then dump a line of maple syrup. If you wait a minute it becomes the consistency of taffy, you then put a popsicle stick on the end of the line and roll. And boom you get maple taffy on a stick, it’s DELICIOUS.)
Re: Krispy Kreme. We do have Krispy Kreme in select areas, but it also failed in Canada. Around 2002, it came up to Toronto (I'm not sure where else) with a vengeance. Several stores opened, the donuts were at Costco, walmart, every gas station. Kids sports teams were selling them by the side of the road as fundraisers. It was really everywhere. The CEO of Krispy Kreme said that they would put Tim Hortons out of business within a couple years. About 4 years later, they filed for bankruptcy in Canada and closed most of their stores. Their donuts evaporated from stores like Walmart and Costco. There are still one or two stores still open. But if I wanted Krispy Kreme today, I'd have to go out of my way to get it. Where as in the early 2000s, you could build homeless shelters out of the stuff, because it was everywhere. Personally, the donuts are substandard, there is far too much sugar in them, making them too sweet, and have no substance. My guess is that once the novelty wore off, most people realized that they're just not good. Also Tim Hortons was never in any way threatened by a place that makes only Donuts, when Tims makes sandwiches, soups, and other items to eat, and has a solid foot hold in Canadiana.
I think that had something to do with our regulations against "trans fats", and also why they were so sweet. They don't appeal to me, so I never tried them, but that was my impression.
@@g8kpr3000 I was working at a Tim Horton's in Mississauga, when Krispy Kreme came to town. Honestly, we just laughed because we knew this was no threat to Tim's business
Yeah, in New-Brunswick there is no Krispy Kreme stores but kids at schools still sell them for sports teams of just to raise money for the school. I love Tim Horton's donuts and i hate Kispy Kream donuts
There's one here in Québec City. I was a pastry chef in my previous life and I have to disagree with you. I don't find them sweeter than Tim Horton's, but much more refined (in a good way). The dough is magnificent, it looks like it's been made of something finer than flour, it's less "bready". As far as fast food donuts go, I think Krispy Kreme is a superior product than Tim's, in texture, taste, and presentation.
@@basseon I couldn’t agree with you more. I don’t find Tim Horton’s donuts good at all. The dough is made in a central bakery, frozen, then reheated at the individual store. They used to be good back when they were actually made in store, but that was a long time ago. Krispy Kreme donuts are far superior. Too bad there aren’t any stores here in Nova Scotia.
It's spring when the snow melts. So, like +3. And yes we DO go out in shorts, because after -20 anything above freezing feels balmy. This time of year we are cowering in coats when it goes down to +3.
7:30 Canadian here the water stairs are a way to access the beach at low tide. In some areas along the coast line tide can have a difference of 30 feet or more from high to low tide. In some places, ramps on hinges can rise and lower with the tides and have built in ladders so when low tide comes you can climb up them. Also the tide comes in fast and if you’re not careful you can get stuck on the mud flats and when visiting Saint John (not saint Johns, Saint John. They’re two different places) my friend almost lost his phone that way. Also the moss lady is actually a fallen elder god. She used to live in and around BC until she died. No body knows how she got here but she’s dead now so pay respects.
The peacocks here in Victoria may be wild, but they are quite tame if you leave them alone. A few times, some of the peahens (lady peacocks) laid their eggs right outside my livingroom window.
A little off-topic but I looked out my window the other day and found a wild turkey standing on the trunk of my car. And I live in a pretty big city in central Canada.
When I lived in Victoria there was a little patch of overgrown no-mans land between my condo and the apartment next door. It was close to Beacon Hill Park and peahens would nest there.
The Québec song clip (The song was "J'ai vu le loup, le renard, le lièvre" - "I saw the wolf, the fox, the hare") was a clip from a show called "Soirée Canadienne" ("Canadian Evening", but in French, "une soirée" can also mean a reception or party happening at the end of the day). I don't know a single person from my parents' generation (50 y.o.) or older that weren't watching this during Saturday evenings. The concept was to go to small villages, gather the citizens in the local community center and/or church basement and film them perform traditional songs and/or storytelling and/or dances, like "we" used to do in parties before. And, yes, to answer the question, the song "J'ai vu le loup, le renard, le lièvre" also known as "J'ai vu le loup, le renard et la belette (the weasel)" is a traditional French song, with many regional variations. I don't personally know the, quite rude, version this boy was singing, but I do know the song (although, it is rarer for people my age to know trad songs).
Why is ketchup chips strange??? The flavor of regular chips is fries. because they are fried potatoes. So Ketchup chips is just fries and ketchup. What is strange is that hasn't dawned on anyone else it seems.
It's logic that works in Canada, but seems to hit an invisible wall when it gets to the border. Ketchup chips are wonderful, and each brand has a distinct flavor. Speaking of chip flavors, I've been trying the new limited-time ones from Lay's. So far my favorites are Butter Chicken, Chicken & Tomato, and Cucumber (yes, cucumber-flavored potato chips are delicious!).
It's going to be ok. Take one day at a time. Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Tyler, you're always welcome in Canada.. You're practically an ambassador! We love you. I often think there's no way that you're American because you care about Canada. Lol. Seriously though, Thank you.
About "The Old Quebec days" - from 1960 to 1983, there was a show (Soirée Canadienne) that had everyday ppl singing old folklore songs - that kid, went on to be one famous Radio and TV host (Joel Legendre)
I live in Newfoundland, Canada. I woke up the other morning and seen a moose in me yard so I feed him a tuna sandwich. He loved it and went on his way.
I live in Ontario and I've driven through Quebec and the Maritimes several times. I've NEVER seen a moose in the wild. The only moose I've ever seen is at the Toronto Zoo.
Come to sask ,over the last 10 or so years our moose population has explode and it's now very common to see moose ,we had one live in our hometown for a winter
Yeah, just the other day there was a report on CTV about 5 moose-vehicle collisions around Saskatoon, all within a fifteen or so minute window. People are all fine, moose likely are too (lol). Just another day around Saskatoon.
IN Canada because of winter getting snow covered footwear is pretty common, and so it's fairly customary to leave footwear at the door of people's homes so you do not track it all throughout the house, and that can happen in non winter months with rain/mud so the habit sticks through all the seasons. This is likely wear this habit comes from. but yes, most Canadian household out of respect to the resident leave footwear at the door.
I prefer people leave their shoes on in my home (since some people don't wear socks, the last thing I want is them tracking their bare feet all over my floors). All I ask is that they use the doormat for the purpose it was invented, and wipe their shoes on it.
Even at my dentist u take ur shoes off lol they have a mat by the door for ur shoes, usually just in the winter or when it’s messy outside, I’m also guilty for pointing out Canadian actors, did it just last night my bf and I were watching a documentary featuring James Cameron and I said he’s Canadian lol
Newfoundlander here. If someone came into my home and left their shoes on I'd probably be offended lol Never, ever wear shoes in someone else's house! Ever! It's just gross and rude to do that!
As a Canadian girl I can confirm we do pronounce syrup in the way she said it. Also I do own a big pair of winter boots that I wear when there is snow on the ground. I don’t get the sock with a red stripe thing either.
Something we would do as kids for fun was during the winter you’d throw on your swimming stuff, hop in a hot tub and get nice and warm. Then everyone would cheer you on as you run out and roll on the ground covered in snow, it would burn but was fun. Then you’d rush back into the hot tub and everyone would laugh at your pain.
Honestly for me after a long winter of -30c or colder -10c feels warm and as a kid I would usually take off my jacket while out sliding and would just have t-shirt, snow pants, toque and gloves. As long as you're active in -10c the suns up and no wind you really dont need much clothing to stay warm
KISSING THE FISH..Or sometimes (depending on which region..a PUFFINS ARSE).along with taking a shot of newfie screech..and saying a newfie saying..Is part of a ceremony visitors to Newfoundland partake in to become a Honorary Newfoundlander..it's called..Getting SCREECHED IN.
The boy singing is Joël Legendre way back in the days. He is a well known radio host and Québec French translation voice for many American movies/actors.
Krispy Kreme came to Canada years ago. It did well, expanded, and then the expansions did not do well, and now we are back to 1 Krispy Kreme. The original Canadian Location. Got donuts last week from there. So Good. :)
Kissing a Cod is part of a Newfie tradition for mainlanders. My in laws had me do it, you have to take a shot of Skreech (a terrible newfie liquor) and then kiss the cod and i think there was some saying i had to try and say. Its a fun thing
Was it proper screech or bottled screech? Proper screech is the one where you rotate water in a rum cask to soak the alcohol out of the boards. The water eventually becomes screech and could be one of the worst tasting things on earth. It does however get you very drunk.
@@jennifermarlow. No, but I was an Army officer. When I kissed the cod it was frozen solid and out of a freezer. I've made swish with a Newfie buddy quite a few times and I almost always ended up regretting the choice to have a swish party. He was from a fishing village that was so far back in the woods he had to come out to hunt. He rode in his first wheeled vehicle when he was 15. I still find that funny. He would always say that swish is the real screech and not the bottled stuff.
@@guarmiron5557 Yeah, and swish is NOT Screech. So, you've just made your own little story into a fake fact, and propagated it to many Americans. Take a bow. SMDH and FFS
At 4:56 I am from Canada and no we don't drench our poutine in salt that ruins the whole cheese curds and gravy taste we only add little bits of salt and also poutine is one of my favorites here in canada
The vehicles headlights blinded the moose in the first clip. Lucky it wasn't a full grown cow or bull. He would have taken the windsheild out and likely beat the driver up pretty badly with his hoofs. In fact, that's how many who die from hitting a moose on the highway. Their legs are so long, often above the hood of the car and they kick as they're dying or kick to free themselves. Right at head level to the driver. I had a friend years ago who lost her life in northern Alberta just that way.
Hey Tyler just in case you read this not everywhere has bagged milk in Canada. I live in Alberta and we use plastic milk jugs, and paper milk cartons, and I know that BC and Saskatchewan also do the same thing.
I can confirm Yukon and NWT also does not used bagged milk (at least not where I lived/visited). Most likely because it wouldn’t travel well the further north you go (in the trucks, because the roads are bad and/or it gets boated/flown in).
At about 11 minutes... there is a kid singing a folk song... that kid is named Joel Legendre, and has become a radio host, tv presenter and does the french voiceover Leonardo DiCaprio in his french version movies.
It’s a giant Loonie ($1cnd) lol. Krispy Kreme is a favourite here in the west. That’s what I see when I watch curling LOL. ROOTS is a Canadian outdoor fitter company.
They scare the crap out of me, but thats my fault. We always collected the feathers of this one that lived at the local park, but being 6 my stupid child brain thought "it obviously makes more sense to get a fresh one straight from the source, they must just pop out if they fall off all the time" So anyway, I got attacked pretty bad by a peacock when I was 6 and its stuck with me.
Fan Tan Alley is in the oldest china town on the west coast… I live in Victoria there are so many cool places to visit. Its the Garden City with so many crazy gardens. Butchard Gardens is world renouned ❤
That video about the old québec days is a staple. It's a TV show that was called "Soirée Canadiennes" from the 70s. They would go around the province of Québec and hold these events in different cities and villages and the people would sing and dance to show off the Québec culture. Sometimes when I get bored, I find myself watching episodes on RUclips 😂
My husband is from western part of Canada and he hadn’t seen a moose up close until he moved in New Brunswick. He was smoking a cigarette on our balcony one morning and a moose just walked by and went back in the woods. We have special fencing on the side of the highways. They can go back in the woods but can’t walk out unless they came out where they was no fencing. Certain times of the year it’s more dangerous than others. Sometimes it’s a wolf fox or a bear. Lol
There is still a Krispy Kreme in Delta, BC. Their doughnuts are good especially if you get them warm. Target failed because they didn’t have all of the same home goods and clothes that they did in the US and when they did it was too expensive in comparison to the same stuff on the US. I remember Bon Homme from the stories in our French class in school.
The snowman is a special one. The Quebec winter carnival's mascot 'Bonhomme'. Most fast food takeout have Poutine on the menu. More interesting is being able to get Lobster Rolls at McDonald's in Atlantic Canada, when lobster is in season. OH and kissing the Cod if part of Newfoundland's Screeching in Ceremony. The only thing weird about the curling was no one calling out hurry, hurry harder. Ketchup chips are OK, but aside from Salt and Vinger, I like All Dressed. I switch to long pants once there is snow on the ground. I hate getting snow in my boots.
I am from the west coast but went to Newfoundland this summer and took part in a Screeching In Ceremony and am now a certified honorary Newfoundlander, 😀
What kind of animal was curling? Groundhogs? Wouldn't they be hibernating? The writing in the background says "Hiberna Moumoute", which when translated means "Winter Fur Coat."
Poutine is a normal McDonald's menu item in Canada, you can either order it by itself or if you ordered a combo you can always upgrade your fries to a poutine instead since it's just a couple bucks more.
You can get poutine at Wendy's and McDonald's in Canada.. but my fave for the fast food chains in the Canadian Harvey's chain poutine! To me it's the most flavourful!! 🤤😊🍁
I wouldn't technically call the Peacocks "wild" but they aren't domesticated either. I went to Hadley Castle, and they have peacocks that they brought and let loose.
Americans have the same geese as Canada (literally). They're on vacation in the USA, they they return to Canada to nest, which means hormonal, aggressive, territorial and (like any new parents) exhausted and cranky.
I live in Victoria BC. Yes, we have a proliferation of peacocks! Most of them live in Beacon Hill Park. Though several wander into the surrounding neighbourhoods of James Bay and Fairfield. They often block traffic as they slowly cross the street! Also in Beacon Hill Park, the moss lady is a lovely sculpture in the park.
A lot of those "Fever Dream" things, I've never seen. I don't know what Nanalan is. Don't know what that pineapple creature is. The Snowman is Quebec's Bonhomme, well known mascot of it's winter festival. The next one I had to cringe. No one should ever ever ever ever ever buy poutine from McDonalds. That's just straight up insulting to poutine, to Canada, and to the natural order of the universe. Not only is it "McDonalds" with their crappy food, but their fries are completely ill suited for Poutine. Basically McDonalds saw the popularity of Poutine and said "hey, we can throw some cheese things and shitty gravy on our fries and slop it in a container for uneducated idiots on youtube to eat." Please, don't ever order poutine from mcdonalds people, I beg you.
Québec traditionnal music is actually a variant of Celtic music. Most Québeckers descend from Britanny, Scotland and Ireland. Irish and Scottish mingled with French Canadians because they were all Catholics.
@@jennifermarlow. I don't know why you say that no Québécois would never say that, it's a well known fact throughout Québec. We are thought that at school and my History teacher was actually a separatist. Bernard Landry, PQ leader, was actually saying that all the time in hios speaches.
I'm from Edmonton, Alberta. While I can't say we've had a ton of moose in the city (or they don't get in as far as where I live) we do have a lot of coyotes. And they are used to people and have become a problem enough for signs to be put up for how to deal with an encounter with one. Earlier this year, I was outside sitting on my porch at night and three coyotes walked across my front lawn. Within 3 meters of me. The first one ignored me, the second stopped and looked at me, then kept going. The third looked at me but didn't stop walking. Went inside after that. Fast forward a couple months and I came across another coyote on a neighbor's lawn. Looked well fed, didn't care about me and crossed the road and entered an alleyway. That guy I caught on video. When it comes to not wearing appropriate clothing, there's a difference between being tolerant of the weather and being stupid. I've seen high school students walking home in -15 weather. Probably because they want to look cool. But being sick isn't cool. Some girls even had there midriffs uncovered, which is a whole other level of stupid. It can get super cold here. Edmonton is officially getting a Krispy Kreme! My family and I love it and make it a 'tradition' whenever we go to the US. Now we will get it here too. Not sure when it opens but the building is nearing completion last I saw it and had a Now Hiring sign. We used to have a dragon in our West Edmonton Mall movie theatre lobby years ago but they took her down. We will miss you, Excalibur.
I actually have a peacock feather I found on the ground in Victoria. It's pretty cool to see them, they just roam the park and people give them space.☺
Somethings even Canadians don't know about Canada there is only two provinces that have milk in bags Ontario and Quebec. Those people who said that just dumbed us down by five basis points

13:21 the reason we're wearing T-shirts and shorts at -10°C is because after weeks on end of between -25°C and -40°C, -10 feels like springtime
-10°C ain’t even winter at that point 😅

It's likely cuz you developed your brown fat when you exposed yourself to colder temperatures. It helps you deal with colder temperatures.
Yup at 5 C right now it's hoodie and almost coat temperature. When spring comes around 5 C will almost be t-shirt temp.

What’s the worst is when you lose ONE shoe at said party, and it disappears forever. 😂
@@rnny162 soo random but sooo common
And Tyler didn't even notice the shoes were holding the door open - in winter.😂
Also the winter coat on the bed. It's hard to find it sometimes
@@sampic_And sometimes you find someone's cat or kid sleeping in it. 😅
You best take your shoes off when entering my house, unless you're also going to clean my floors. 😊
We learn to take our shoes off because snow sticks to the bottom of the shoes and then melts in the house.
It's so true 😂
And the salt ! Will eat the carpet and floors
Same with springtime mud-snow melt and fall rotting leaves mud. Just overall it's gross to bring your dog shit and dirt covered shoes into someone's house.
A lot of people still have wall to wall carpeting too.
It's a mum's rule. Dirty shoes make dirty floors.
And then in the spring, it's almost always raining, so there's mud everywhere.
It would never occur to me to leave my shoes on at someone’s house, lol, that would be rude.
The big snowman at the beginning is Bonhomme de neige. Mascot of a Quebec winter festival
It's still creepy-looking.
@Shan_Dalamani
Aw, I never found him creepy. Maybe it's cuz he's such an old mascot he's got that odd vintage look that can be off putting to young folk
We always take our shoes off at the door of people's houses

4:39 I don't know if this man's taste buds have been anihilated by salty food but to me McDonald's poutine is very salty...
It's one of the worst poutine
@@deadbluesky Totally agree.
Worst poutine ..you need to eat real poutine at some real poutine house in montreal
You can request the fries in the poutine without salt. They also offer it for their regular fries.
yeah but the gravy is also too salty
Most Canadian thing ever is when you go to a little town in the middle of a forest on a big beautiful lake in the winter, go Tobogganing down a bunch of hills for fun, trying to get your dog on the sled, while you buy for a dollar some maple taffy from a nice old grandpa who’s wearing a checkered flannel while you dodge deer on the road on your way home.
(For those who don’t know: Maple taffy is where they get a barrel and shove a bunch of snow in it (clean snow) and then dump a line of maple syrup. If you wait a minute it becomes the consistency of taffy, you then put a popsicle stick on the end of the line and roll. And boom you get maple taffy on a stick, it’s DELICIOUS.)
Re: Krispy Kreme.
We do have Krispy Kreme in select areas, but it also failed in Canada. Around 2002, it came up to Toronto (I'm not sure where else) with a vengeance. Several stores opened, the donuts were at Costco, walmart, every gas station. Kids sports teams were selling them by the side of the road as fundraisers. It was really everywhere. The CEO of Krispy Kreme said that they would put Tim Hortons out of business within a couple years.
About 4 years later, they filed for bankruptcy in Canada and closed most of their stores. Their donuts evaporated from stores like Walmart and Costco. There are still one or two stores still open. But if I wanted Krispy Kreme today, I'd have to go out of my way to get it. Where as in the early 2000s, you could build homeless shelters out of the stuff, because it was everywhere.
Personally, the donuts are substandard, there is far too much sugar in them, making them too sweet, and have no substance. My guess is that once the novelty wore off, most people realized that they're just not good. Also Tim Hortons was never in any way threatened by a place that makes only Donuts, when Tims makes sandwiches, soups, and other items to eat, and has a solid foot hold in Canadiana.
I think that had something to do with our regulations against "trans fats", and also why they were so sweet. They don't appeal to me, so I never tried them, but that was my impression.
@@g8kpr3000 I was working at a Tim Horton's in Mississauga, when Krispy Kreme came to town. Honestly, we just laughed because we knew this was no threat to Tim's business
Yeah, in New-Brunswick there is no Krispy Kreme stores but kids at schools still sell them for sports teams of just to raise money for the school. I love Tim Horton's donuts and i hate Kispy Kream donuts
There's one here in Québec City. I was a pastry chef in my previous life and I have to disagree with you. I don't find them sweeter than Tim Horton's, but much more refined (in a good way). The dough is magnificent, it looks like it's been made of something finer than flour, it's less "bready". As far as fast food donuts go, I think Krispy Kreme is a superior product than Tim's, in texture, taste, and presentation.
@@basseon I couldn’t agree with you more. I don’t find Tim Horton’s donuts good at all. The dough is made in a central bakery, frozen, then reheated at the individual store. They used to be good back when they were actually made in store, but that was a long time ago. Krispy Kreme donuts are far superior. Too bad there aren’t any stores here in Nova Scotia.
If that's -10c in the _spring_ then that's nothing. Once its been -30c, -10c feels warm

This time of year we are cowering in coats when it goes down to +3.

7:30 Canadian here the water stairs are a way to access the beach at low tide. In some areas along the coast line tide can have a difference of 30 feet or more from high to low tide. In some places, ramps on hinges can rise and lower with the tides and have built in ladders so when low tide comes you can climb up them. Also the tide comes in fast and if you’re not careful you can get stuck on the mud flats and when visiting Saint John (not saint Johns, Saint John. They’re two different places) my friend almost lost his phone that way.
Also the moss lady is actually a fallen elder god. She used to live in and around BC until she died. No body knows how she got here but she’s dead now so pay respects.
Ain’t nothing better than going on a stroll outside when the temperature is a perfect -3 to -5°c.
The peacocks here in Victoria may be wild, but they are quite tame if you leave them alone. A few times, some of the peahens (lady peacocks) laid their eggs right outside my livingroom window.
A little off-topic but I looked out my window the other day and found a wild turkey standing on the trunk of my car. And I live in a pretty big city in central Canada.
When I lived in Victoria there was a little patch of overgrown no-mans land between my condo and the apartment next door. It was close to Beacon Hill Park and peahens would nest there.
feral peacocks in Stanley Park too (Vancouver). Love them.
The Québec song clip (The song was "J'ai vu le loup, le renard, le lièvre" - "I saw the wolf, the fox, the hare") was a clip from a show called "Soirée Canadienne" ("Canadian Evening", but in French, "une soirée" can also mean a reception or party happening at the end of the day).
I don't know a single person from my parents' generation (50 y.o.) or older that weren't watching this during Saturday evenings. The concept was to go to small villages, gather the citizens in the local community center and/or church basement and film them perform traditional songs and/or storytelling and/or dances, like "we" used to do in parties before.
And, yes, to answer the question, the song "J'ai vu le loup, le renard, le lièvre" also known as "J'ai vu le loup, le renard et la belette (the weasel)" is a traditional French song, with many regional variations. I don't personally know the, quite rude, version this boy was singing, but I do know the song (although, it is rarer for people my age to know trad songs).
Why is ketchup chips strange???
The flavor of regular chips is fries. because they are fried potatoes.
So Ketchup chips is just fries and ketchup.
What is strange is that hasn't dawned on anyone else it seems.
It's logic that works in Canada, but seems to hit an invisible wall when it gets to the border. Ketchup chips are wonderful, and each brand has a distinct flavor.
Speaking of chip flavors, I've been trying the new limited-time ones from Lay's. So far my favorites are Butter Chicken, Chicken & Tomato, and Cucumber (yes, cucumber-flavored potato chips are delicious!).
So well put! I always loved ketchup chips.

I live in Ontario and I've driven through Quebec and the Maritimes several times. I've NEVER seen a moose in the wild. The only moose I've ever seen is at the Toronto Zoo.
Moose are herbivores though. He may have loved it at the time but threw it up later.

IN Canada because of winter getting snow covered footwear is pretty common, and so it's fairly customary to leave footwear at the door of people's homes so you do not track it all throughout the house, and that can happen in non winter months with rain/mud so the habit sticks through all the seasons.
This is likely wear this habit comes from. but yes, most Canadian household out of respect to the resident leave footwear at the door.
I prefer people leave their shoes on in my home (since some people don't wear socks, the last thing I want is them tracking their bare feet all over my floors). All I ask is that they use the doormat for the purpose it was invented, and wipe their shoes on it.
Even at my dentist u take ur shoes off lol they have a mat by the door for ur shoes, usually just in the winter or when it’s messy outside, I’m also guilty for pointing out Canadian actors, did it just last night my bf and I were watching a documentary featuring James Cameron and I said he’s Canadian lol
Newfoundlander here. If someone came into my home and left their shoes on I'd probably be offended lol
Never, ever wear shoes in someone else's house! Ever! It's just gross and rude to do that!
As a Canadian girl I can confirm we do pronounce syrup in the way she said it. Also I do own a big pair of winter boots that I wear when there is snow on the ground. I don’t get the sock with a red stripe thing either.
Roots socks.
No like the big lumberjack socks
Something we would do as kids for fun was during the winter you’d throw on your swimming stuff, hop in a hot tub and get nice and warm. Then everyone would cheer you on as you run out and roll on the ground covered in snow, it would burn but was fun. Then you’d rush back into the hot tub and everyone would laugh at your pain.

Honestly for me after a long winter of -30c or colder -10c feels warm and as a kid I would usually take off my jacket while out sliding and would just have t-shirt, snow pants, toque and gloves. As long as you're active in -10c the suns up and no wind you really dont need much clothing to stay warm
KISSING THE FISH..Or sometimes (depending on which region..a PUFFINS ARSE).along with taking a shot of newfie screech..and saying a newfie saying..Is part of a ceremony visitors to Newfoundland partake in to become a Honorary Newfoundlander..it's called..Getting SCREECHED IN.
I love that scene in Come From Away, it’s so much fun
"Is ye a screecher?"
"Deed I is, me old cock, and long may yer big jib draw."
It's warmer when it snows 😅
Exactly.. it's much better than wet cold like fall rains.
The boy singing is Joël Legendre way back in the days. He is a well known radio host and Québec French translation voice for many American movies/actors.
You know what Tyler?? You make me even prouder to be a Canadian! If that’s actually possible …
Thanksgiving is to give thanks for the Harvest. Since we are further north, our harvest happens sooner. Hence ours in October, and yours in November.
We also had crispy cream donuts 🍩 before it was shown the way back to the border. Their donuts were grossly sweet
Grossly lardy
I was so disappointed when I tasted the crispy cream Donut
Krispy Kreme came to Canada years ago. It did well, expanded, and then the expansions did not do well, and now we are back to 1 Krispy Kreme. The original Canadian Location. Got donuts last week from there. So Good. :)
Kissing a Cod is part of a Newfie tradition for mainlanders. My in laws had me do it, you have to take a shot of Skreech (a terrible newfie liquor) and then kiss the cod and i think there was some saying i had to try and say. Its a fun thing
You can find wild peacocks in Miami, FL. They're beautiful.
Was it proper screech or bottled screech?
Proper screech is the one where you rotate water in a rum cask to soak the alcohol out of the boards. The water eventually becomes screech and could be one of the worst tasting things on earth. It does however get you very drunk.
@@guarmiron5557 Yeah, that's called swish Are you a Newfie? Hmm
@@jennifermarlow. No, but I was an Army officer. When I kissed the cod it was frozen solid and out of a freezer.
I've made swish with a Newfie buddy quite a few times and I almost always ended up regretting the choice to have a swish party.
He was from a fishing village that was so far back in the woods he had to come out to hunt. He rode in his first wheeled vehicle when he was 15. I still find that funny. He would always say that swish is the real screech and not the bottled stuff.
@@guarmiron5557 Yeah, and swish is NOT Screech. So, you've just made your own little story into a fake fact, and propagated it to many Americans. Take a bow. SMDH and FFS

I'm still wearing shorts and flip-flops 😂
These videos are great I actually appreciate them so thank you.
The vehicles headlights blinded the moose in the first clip. Lucky it wasn't a full grown cow or bull. He would have taken the windsheild out and likely beat the driver up pretty badly with his hoofs. In fact, that's how many who die from hitting a moose on the highway. Their legs are so long, often above the hood of the car and they kick as they're dying or kick to free themselves. Right at head level to the driver. I had a friend years ago who lost her life in northern Alberta just that way.
in canadian's party , we put off our shoes cuz there are cover all by snow , and nobody wanna get his socks wet or walk on a dirty wet floor.
Hey Tyler just in case you read this not everywhere has bagged milk in Canada. I live in Alberta and we use plastic milk jugs, and paper milk cartons, and I know that BC and Saskatchewan also do the same thing.
And Manitoba!
We did have milk in bags years ago in Alberta.
Was going to say, there are some Canadians who probably don't know of bagged milk also, and would find it strange too.
We had bagged milk in BC, back in the day, but I think it was phased out after a couple of decades.
I can confirm Yukon and NWT also does not used bagged milk (at least not where I lived/visited). Most likely because it wouldn’t travel well the further north you go (in the trucks, because the roads are bad and/or it gets boated/flown in).

I think a couple years back there was a neighbourhood in Surrey, BC that had a peacock problem… it was on the news. I just found it on YT. 😊
They scare the crap out of me, but thats my fault. We always collected the feathers of this one that lived at the local park, but being 6 my stupid child brain thought "it obviously makes more sense to get a fresh one straight from the source, they must just pop out if they fall off all the time"
So anyway, I got attacked pretty bad by a peacock when I was 6 and its stuck with me.

That video about the old québec days is a staple. It's a TV show that was called "Soirée Canadiennes" from the 70s. They would go around the province of Québec and hold these events in different cities and villages and the people would sing and dance to show off the Québec culture. Sometimes when I get bored, I find myself watching episodes on RUclips 😂
My husband is from western part of Canada and he hadn’t seen a moose up close until he moved in New Brunswick. He was smoking a cigarette on our balcony one morning and a moose just walked by and went back in the woods. We have special fencing on the side of the highways. They can go back in the woods but can’t walk out unless they came out where they was no fencing. Certain times of the year it’s more dangerous than others. Sometimes it’s a wolf fox or a bear. Lol
Hahaha yeah We used to have Taget here, Crispy Creame is in large cities at least in Toronto ( and we pronounce it Tor-on-no) 😊
There is still a Krispy Kreme in Delta, BC. Their doughnuts are good especially if you get them warm. Target failed because they didn’t have all of the same home goods and clothes that they did in the US and when they did it was too expensive in comparison to the same stuff on the US. I remember Bon Homme from the stories in our French class in school.
Yess! wild peacocks are all ways running everywhere here! And not just in bc!
The snowman is a special one. The Quebec winter carnival's mascot 'Bonhomme'. Most fast food takeout have Poutine on the menu. More interesting is being able to get Lobster Rolls at McDonald's in Atlantic Canada, when lobster is in season. OH and kissing the Cod if part of Newfoundland's Screeching in Ceremony. The only thing weird about the curling was no one calling out hurry, hurry harder. Ketchup chips are OK, but aside from Salt and Vinger, I like All Dressed. I switch to long pants once there is snow on the ground. I hate getting snow in my boots.
I am from the west coast but went to Newfoundland this summer and took part in a Screeching In Ceremony and am now a certified honorary Newfoundlander, 😀

Poutine is a normal McDonald's menu item in Canada, you can either order it by itself or if you ordered a combo you can always upgrade your fries to a poutine instead since it's just a couple bucks more.

@Shan_Dalamani Facts 💯%
I live in Victoria BC. Yes, we have a proliferation of peacocks! Most of them live in Beacon Hill Park. Though several wander into the surrounding neighbourhoods of James Bay and Fairfield. They often block traffic as they slowly cross the street! Also in Beacon Hill Park, the moss lady is a lovely sculpture in the park.
A lot of those "Fever Dream" things, I've never seen. I don't know what Nanalan is. Don't know what that pineapple creature is. The Snowman is Quebec's Bonhomme, well known mascot of it's winter festival.
The next one I had to cringe. No one should ever ever ever ever ever buy poutine from McDonalds. That's just straight up insulting to poutine, to Canada, and to the natural order of the universe. Not only is it "McDonalds" with their crappy food, but their fries are completely ill suited for Poutine. Basically McDonalds saw the popularity of Poutine and said "hey, we can throw some cheese things and shitty gravy on our fries and slop it in a container for uneducated idiots on youtube to eat."
Please, don't ever order poutine from mcdonalds people, I beg you.
Nanalan was cute and very down to earth

Québec traditionnal music is actually a variant of Celtic music. Most Québeckers descend from Britanny, Scotland and Ireland. Irish and Scottish mingled with French Canadians because they were all Catholics.
That's a bit of real history that no Quebecois would ever say. Thanks, I'm gonna research that.
@@jennifermarlow. I don't know why you say that no Québécois would never say that, it's a well known fact throughout Québec.

Hold on, the first one is Norwegian. I know I've seen it before, but can't remember if it was you who reacted to it.
I was going to say the same thing. Definitely Norway.
I'm from Edmonton, Alberta. While I can't say we've had a ton of moose in the city (or they don't get in as far as where I live) we do have a lot of coyotes. And they are used to people and have become a problem enough for signs to be put up for how to deal with an encounter with one. Earlier this year, I was outside sitting on my porch at night and three coyotes walked across my front lawn. Within 3 meters of me. The first one ignored me, the second stopped and looked at me, then kept going. The third looked at me but didn't stop walking. Went inside after that. Fast forward a couple months and I came across another coyote on a neighbor's lawn. Looked well fed, didn't care about me and crossed the road and entered an alleyway. That guy I caught on video.
When it comes to not wearing appropriate clothing, there's a difference between being tolerant of the weather and being stupid. I've seen high school students walking home in -15 weather. Probably because they want to look cool. But being sick isn't cool. Some girls even had there midriffs uncovered, which is a whole other level of stupid. It can get super cold here.
Edmonton is officially getting a Krispy Kreme! My family and I love it and make it a 'tradition' whenever we go to the US. Now we will get it here too. Not sure when it opens but the building is nearing completion last I saw it and had a Now Hiring sign.
We used to have a dragon in our West Edmonton Mall movie theatre lobby years ago but they took her down. We will miss you, Excalibur.
