I think I’ve started to make Jason understand Canadians a bit more! Well, at least me.I know I missed A LOT of shows. Like a lot. So if we ever do a part 2, what else do I need to show him??
I grew up in Northern Minnesota on the border with Ontario. We watched Canadian tv all the time. I remember the Beachcombers, Danger Bay, The Fifth Estate, Tommy Hunter, Mr Dressup, and several where I can picture the characters but can't remember the series. We probably watched just as much or more Canadian tv than American.
I imagine it's relatable. Canada and Australia have a lot in common. Both are geographically large countries with low populations, overall, so we have a lot of small and remote communities; both have histories of oppressing their indigenous populations; we share a queen; both have a reputation for rugged wilderness and dangerous animals (Canada's are mostly of the "large with sharp teeth/claws or huge antlers" variety); we've got "funny" accents that Americans tend to imitate poorly, etc.
I don't know if it's the greatest commercial in all of history. They still at Taco Bell one " I'm full of beyond my wildest dreams and you can be too" and the most interesting man alive. But I am Canadian good too I guess.
"Corner Gas" kicks ass ! As an arrogant American I can declare that it is Canada's "Seinfeld". A show about nothing that is filled with intelligent /subtle/dry humor, mixed in with slapstick and the occasional absurd. One is a regional show set in the city and the other is a regional show set in the country. Both were incredible and created a connection with anyone that watched a few episodes.
What no "Schitt's Creek"? Probably the most popular Canadian show in the States. Everyone to whom I showed this show, loves it. Too bad they ended it. Soon Netflix will release the final season. Greetings from Rochester NY (also with plenty of Tim Hortons).
I think the idea is shows and commercials not aired over US networks, streaming services. So that would cancel out Schitts Creek, Kims Convenience etc.

Agreed I'm from the same town as Brent Butt (Tisdale Saskatchewan) I find it funny because it was like watching the people literally around me and the scene a little far fetched but not uncommon) I agree watch it more then a clip and I think you find it as funny as Letterkenny lol
I went to a week long sports camp as a teen, and we had a few (like 4) Americans come up to Canada for it. One night they cancelled evening practice so that we could watch the Survivor Finale, and basically the entire camp all cramped together into one (huge) room to watch it. The I Am Canadian ad played, and EVERYONE yelled out along with the ad. The Americans were SO confused.
My son and I (lived our whole lives in Kansas and Texas) have noticed that some of the best sci fi over the past 20-25 years had come from Canada! So, thank you, Canada!
oh man. Yeah, I didn't even think about the NFB cartoons. Though if he got CBC he's probably seen a good chunk of the big ones like Log Driver's Waltz, The Big Snit, Black Flies, The Cat Came Back, Eureka, and the Hockey Sweater.
@@derekspencer9975 the Log Driver's Waltz and the Black Fly songs are brilliant and loved by both Canadians and Americans who were exposed to NFB cartoon films
I’m a man. I can change. If I have to. I guess. Keep your stick on the ice. And remember if the women don’t find you handsome they should at least find you handy
I always wondered how many people didn't notice the sound of chainsaws every time they were outdoors. There seem to be lots of places in Canada where that's just normal background noise.
Actually it was a parody of the Red Fisher Show. It was about fishing trips. But he did miss some major Canadian shows like Little Mosque on the Prairie and Murdoch Mysteries
sploofmonkey Alex Trebek hosted Reach For The Top on the CBC and Pitfall on Global TV. Pitfall lasted one whole season and went bankrupt. To this day Alex has the bounced cheque framed in his home office.
When the typist turns over, and they all run over to watch her head. I do not know why I found that so funny. Maybe it’s a Canadian thing. Our humour has a lot of sarcasm init.
@@TheFunkymohawk I tried to watch it. I was disappointed. It's like it wanted to be the next Corner Gas but they shoved woke shit in there for no reason at all.
Yeah, the USE of peanuts dates back to the Aztecs and Incas. But modern peanut butter was invented and patented by a Canadian. Basketball was also invented by a Canadian.
@@Buckykatt gtfo outta here. Corner Gas is an endlessly quotable masterpiece. Letterkenny is a fake wannabe that feels like it's made by Americans who THINK this is how Canadians act. Trailer Park Boys is okay but it's no Corner Gas.
I grew up in Quebec and I’ve never heard of these shows. I really love this channel for the american vs. Canadian but also because I always learn more about the English-canadian culture that is so different from what I know! ❤️
I grew up in Newfoundland, here we have, or at least had, cafeteria service all throughout the school system. And the “I Am Canadian “ commercial is iconic!!
I grew up in the county just above the Bronx (NYC) in New York State and in elementary school we didn’t have a cafeteria. We eat lunch in our classroom. You brought your lunch in a lunchbox (& later a brown bag as it was cooler when you’re older). We would sit on the grass outside when nice out. Our school district never served lunch even in middle school and high school.
I live in Florida and years ago they showed Corner Gas late at night...I loved it! They also would show I think it was called Davinci? It was a police show
I grew up in the states and went to University in Manitoba so watched a lot of Canadian TV back in the day. Even ended up marrying a Canadian wife Right Choice by the way. There are the classics that I think still hold up today like SCTV and Kids in the hall and the movie The Great White North classic Canadian TV. We ended up buying all the DVDs for Corner Gas for all the seasons. Showed it to some of our city friends and they did not like it at all but showed it to some friends who grew up in the Prairies and the Plains and they totally got it. I think that those from the city just have a hard time understanding Prairie humor
callak _ yep, it can be. Now look at the overwhelming amount of American tv shows and comedy movies that have flooded the north. Now look at the success of Canadian comedians in the states such as John Candy, Martin Short who by the way is not funny, Rick Moranis just for a few examples. So it really is not a whole lot of difference. But I do see your point, cheers‼️🍻🇨🇦🇺🇸
Also, does he know that Shark Tank is just a spinoff from Dragon's Den in Canada. Both shows have Kevin O'Leary on them (although he's now left the Dragon's Den).
Taryn Wilson yes I knew it was, or is aired in the States what network shows it? I’ve also seen Highway Thru Hell on American tv. I think it was on the weather channel/network, or what ever the all weather station is called. Glad you like Corner Gas.
There was a short-lived CBC show called 'Hatching, Matching and Dispatching' with Mary Walsh an Shaun Majumder. It was a about a small town Newfoundland family and it was sheer brilliance. Circa 2005
@@8XxXShEiKXxX8 My teenage son is such a fan of Murdoch Mysteries. Actually, the show airs in the US on some obscure channel; it’s also in a lot of places around the world.
In the "old days" (pre-1980s?), elementary school kids where I grew up went home for lunch which was a short walk and then went back to school. Most kids used to walk to and from school by themselves.
Paul Y: here too. We didn't even have a lunchroom. I lived a mile from my elementary school, so it took me about 30 minutes to walk home. Thankfully we had 90 minutes for lunch. Noon, get out for lunch. 12:30, home in time for lunch and The Flintstones. 1:00, head back to school. Yes, through two feet of snow, uphill both ways. 😉
Yeah, I went home for lunch in the 90s, or, you could sit at your desk and eat. No place to buy food on school grounds (not even vending machines) until Jr High. I imagine it was their way of ensuring small children only ever ate what their parents provided and approved of.
Almost every single USA TV show or movie inserts the flag in there, especially at the beginning. And they talk about the USA a lot on USA shows, they just don't realize it.
In the 1970s the Canadian government wanted to promote bilingualism across Canada. They expanded the French network to Western Canada. A lot of men would stay up late to watch movies on the French network. It was not because they wanted to learn French but because the French network would show movies from France that had naked women in it. I learned that there was a movie produced in 1914 and released in 1915 that was called The Birth of a Nation. It was the most racist movie ever produced. It was a movie that glorified the Klu Klux Klan. Blacks in the USA rightfully hated that movie. I was told that no TV station in North America would show that movie. The French network showed it twice. It is one thing to show movies from France that had naked women in it but showing The Birth of a Nation was going too far.
You should have used the opening scene to the first episode of Corner Gas. I think nothing exemplifies what the show is about better than that cold open.
Corner Gas might be the thing that makes me most proud about living in Saskatchewan, it was filmed in Roleau and is actually still a pretty relevant representation of Saskatchewan from what I’ve seen. Letterkenny is awesome from what I’ve seen, but I can only relate to it with my travels to Ontario (and the chips, vinegar, and peanut butter, of course!)
I LOVE that special. Watched it the day it aired in Windsor. It was as a family after Sunday dinner with my Detroit born Grandma. She was so mad because she is a well educated & travelled woman. She actually cussed out at the Harvard professor. Hilarious!!!
I watched an interview where someone from Molsons said "The rant" which is the I AM CANADIAN commercial was created after he heard someone from the US saying Canadians have no Canadian pride. He said it was never meant to be a money-making ad in beer sales for the company but more to show Canadians have a great deal of pride in being Canadian. That's why you only ever see the Name Molson or see beer right at the end and is the only time Molson is mentioned. It became at the time (not sure about now) the most profitable ad in sales in their history.
Yeah, they really tapped into some common experiences there. I'm Canadian and you grow up hearing how we have little identity, etc. but that's just from a bunch of dummies imo. Spend any amount of time overseas and you see the distinctions right away, & that only grows with time. I went on exchange to Australia years ago, and was picked up by some university employees (along with a few other students arriving that day), and it was hilarious - one driver asked me if I was American, and the other snapped back and said "you've been doing this job for this long and you *still* can't tell the difference? She's obviously Canadian" and they both looked at me to see how I'd answer and I was like, "Yeah, I'm Canadian" haha. Then she schooled him on all the differences, it was pretty funny. & I'm from Alberta, so one of the places that's supposed to be less obviously Canadian in terms of accent and stuff. Now that I've lived in Australia for like 4 years, I can pick out American vs Canadian actors with a pretty good amount of accuracy. We share so much media and business ties with the US, but a lot of people (on both sides, I'd wager) don't realize that beyond that, there are a lot of small distinctions that add up. At this point, I'd genuinely say that Australia is culturally more similar to us than the US is, even though we get jokes about being America Jr. all the time.
@@aerialpunk I can absolutely believe that, lol; I'm pretty sure the country Canada is the closest to culturally is New Zealand (from what I can tell from here in Canada, never having visited NZ--yet!). Mind you, all three are Commonwealth countries, so we do have that strong connection that we don't have with America.
@@KryssLaBryn Yes that's true, I think the Commonwealth thing is part of it. There's a more obvious British influence here in Australia than there is in Canada, but it does bring some common ground to the countries for sure. I haven't been to NZ either and have only known one person from there (who thought Canada was more laidback than NZ). I'm sure being the less influential country next to a bigger one would bring some commonality there :P But I think with Australia, part of the similarities also come from history (broadly similar ways of forming their own country, broadly similar history with Indigenous people), and a similar geographic makeup (huge country with a lot of empty space & most people concentrated in a thin strip). Both countries have things like music, shows that everyone within the country knows but fewer people outside of it are aware of it. And Australia is a little more socialistic, in similar ways to Canada, & that brings some common ground too (like with regard to politics and social stuff I think they're more similar to each other than the US, both are a little more moderate).
Of all the scenes and clips of Corner Gas, you use that one? Also, Corner Gas is on amazon or hulu in the US (and for us is still on the air in animated form - just won an award too). Also - commercials - doncha put it in your mouth, house hippo. Other shows: trailer park boys, Raccoons, Anne.
Jason needs to see The Beachcombers, The Littlest Hobo, King of Kensington, The Friendly Giant, Mr.Dressup, The House Hippo commercial, NFB cartoon shorts, Heritage minutes...
It's funny how just inside Canada there is a culture shock. Being french canadian I only learned about those show later in life with youtube and facebook. Just I.E., Thanksgiving. I had an Ontario friend asking me what I was doing for thanksgiving and I was like : "Isn't that an American thing?". We don't celebrate that here, just an other day like any other.
Drove through it a few years back. Like, the Prairies are pretty flat (well, more rolling), especially to me, having grown up on the northwest coast of BC; but Rouleau is just *ridiculously* flat. Just crazy. Flat to the horizon in all directions. Completely boggled my mind.
You should have shown him The Frantics “Boot to the Head”, “Mr Canoehead”, “The Log-driver’s Waltz” and the first Molson Canadian Beer Fridge commercial.
I didn't watch it, but I think The Polka-Dot Door is another classic Canadian kids' show. And what about Circle Square? Harriet's Magic Hats? Smith & Smith?
CTV still plays Corner Gas all the time. I recently cancelled my cable (finally) and only get a few channels now with a digital antenna. I always knew of Corner Gas back when new episodes were still being made, but never really watched it until very recently. It's quite funny and all characters are likable.
My elementary school (in Ontario) didn't have a cafeteria either, but most people lived close enough to walk home for lunch. Some people stayed at school, and they had a few classrooms designated as "lunch rooms" for the people who were staying at school to eat lunch.
I've been trying to find the skit for "The New adventures of the Littlest Hobo" when Colin Mochrie was on. It was hilarious, but it seems like it's been scrubbed from the internet. "Through the magic of taxidermy, we've reunited the original cast!"
I am America but grew up on Canadian tv from Today’s Special , Forever Knight and Degrassi and love the newer stuff like Shitt’s Creek or Kim’s Convenience and the secretly Canadian Sci-fi that like Warehouse 13 that claims to be American till you notice they are clearly at Casa Loma.
I grew up on the west coast ( BC/Alberta) almost every house had a garbage disposal. But they were called garborators. Alberta central air conditioning is fairly standard in every house. But not in BC.
Back in the day, though, BC didn't need A/C, because we have (had) a decently stable climate in the Lower Mainland; no summer too hot, no winter too cold... We didn't have a garburator (Damn, it's been a while since I heard/used that term!), but my cousins did. I was born in Alberta, but grew-up and live in southern BC.
If you repeat this with movies, might I suggest Bon Cop, Bad Cop? Great flick that laughs at our linguistic and cultural gaps with affection for both. Genuinely bilingual films are pretty rare, even here.
I love this series a lot! I first watched it because I wanted to know what America does and how different it is from us, but now I just watch it for fun
My husband and his best buddy loved Trailer Park Boys during its run and nicknamed my son J-rock when he was little because of it. Now my 17 yr old son loves it.
actually they are a subsidiary of Restaurant Brand international, who's owned in majority by the Brazilain investement Firm 3G Capital. And yeah coffee is horrible now.
I grew up in Victoria British Columbia, our city is on an island and jolts below the 49th parallel, in the 1960s with Attenas we would get mostly Seattle and a Tv station from Bellingham Washington, As a child I thought I was an American, Then we got more stations from Vancouver bc and went to school and was corrected
Our tv is dominated by U.S. shows so we know lots of them. I just binge-watched a HandMaid's Tale and I got a charge out of recognizing all the locations because it was filmed around here. It was written by a Canadian so it makes sense to film it in Canada.
The only homes I saw with garburators were in Willowdale and the Beaches. My school introduced a lunch room when I was in grade 5. Back then only a handful of kids stayed at school at lunch time, we had a cafeteria in jr and high school. Canadian TV shows - Street Legal, Murdoch Mysteries, Kim's Convenience, Transplant, Due South, Degrassi, Vikings, Red Green Show, Little Mosque On The Prairie, Da Vinci's Inquest, Reboot, Kids In The Hall, Night Heat, SCTV, Good Rockin' Tonight, King of Kensington, The Natue of Things, Schitt's Creek. My sister-in-law & her daughter were on the kids game show Just Like Mom.
When I was in elementary school, we ate packed lunches from home in the gym. They would set up these long, folding tables. You had to sit with your class at designated tables. Then in middle school, (different building) there was a cafeteria but no food was served. Still packed lunches from home. In high school, we had a cafeteria that did serve food. But I still got sent with a packed lunch.
In the NYC suburbs, we were allowed to go home from middle school and high school. You could also go to a local pizzeria or deli (we didn’t have any fast food chains in our village).
Cafaterias are very common all across canada in schools. We had them in Newfoundland, parents would prepay for meals each week from a menu given to us to take home each thursday, pick out meals for each day of the week on the list, then sent us back with the envelope friday morning to hand in to the teachers, that way the school knew what to cook for you monday to friday the following week. edit... its costed an average of $25 a week for a kid to eat from the school cafteria, lunch program was partially funded by the government, kept the price low for parents and of course removes the hassle of meal prep for their kids everyday.
Johnny Harris was also in the TV Period Drama series Murdoch Mysteries, his character was Constable George Crabtree. The series takes place in Toronto starting in 1895, they celebrated the first female Medical Examiner during that time period in Canada by having one for the series. I really enjoy the series... Its on it's 14th season.
A few years ago, we had "19-2", a police drama made in Québec. On the second season's first episode, there was a scene with a school shooting shot in ONE continuous take 12 minutes long. ruclips.net/video/m-pz-P4KpRM/видео.html
YES - my best friend from Virginia watched Degrassi and loved it, she also loved the show with Todd Talbot and Ryan Reynolds (Hillside High in Canada/Fifteen in the USA)
What about Little Mosque on the prairie! Love your channel, keep up the good work! I live in Nova Scotia and last summer a lady in Virginia USA asked if I knew her friend from Edmonton! I had to tell her that it was about 4,000 miles away. Duh! 🇨🇦😎
In elementary school we never ate in class rooms, in Quebec. We use to have lunch at home and for kids who couldn’t go home during lunch time we had a room with tables. Food wasn’t served, you had to bring your lunch. We also had free lunch for kids who were poor.

I grew up in Northern Minnesota on the border with Ontario. We watched Canadian tv all the time.

One night they cancelled evening practice so that we could watch the Survivor Finale, and basically the entire camp all cramped together into one (huge) room to watch it. The I Am Canadian ad played, and EVERYONE yelled out along with the ad.
The Americans were SO confused.
My son and I (lived our whole lives in Kansas and Texas) have noticed that some of the best sci fi over the past 20-25 years had come from Canada!
So, thank you, Canada!
We found our identity through a beer commercial. Appropriate.
That ad was really just playing off how Canadians express their identity as "not American."
@@fortunatejeremy
Nope.
Jason needs to more classic commercials - the Canadian house hippo, the history vignettes "I smell burnt toast!" And the log driver's waltz. LOL
oh man. Yeah, I didn't even think about the NFB cartoons. Though if he got CBC he's probably seen a good chunk of the big ones like Log Driver's Waltz, The Big Snit, Black Flies, The Cat Came Back, Eureka, and the Hockey Sweater.
I still ask people if I'm the only one who can smell burnt toast if I do lol 😁
"Don't You Put It In Your Mouth!"
The Log Driver’s Waltz! You can’t watch that and not immediately feel happier 💕
@@derekspencer9975 the Log Driver's Waltz and the Black Fly songs are brilliant and loved by both Canadians and Americans who were exposed to NFB cartoon films
Show him The Red Green Show (Canada's version of Tim The Tool Man Taylor)
I’m a man. I can change. If I have to. I guess.
Keep your stick on the ice. And remember if the women don’t find you handsome they should at least find you handy
I always wondered how many people didn't notice the sound of chainsaws every time they were outdoors. There seem to be lots of places in Canada where that's just normal background noise.
Actually it was a parody of the Red Fisher Show. It was about fishing trips. But he did miss some major Canadian shows like Little Mosque on the Prairie and Murdoch Mysteries
Quondo omni flunkus moritati.
sploofmonkey Alex Trebek hosted Reach For The Top on the CBC and Pitfall on Global TV. Pitfall lasted one whole season and went bankrupt. To this day Alex has the bounced cheque framed in his home office.
"I'm crushing your head" 🤏 - Kids in the hall
I still do that to people when they get on my nerves.
When the typist turns over, and they all run over to watch her head. I do not know why I found that so funny. Maybe it’s a Canadian thing. Our humour has a lot of sarcasm init.
These are the Dave's I know .....
Enjoyed that. You should have shown him, "Kim's Convenience" great show! 🍁
Absolutely! It's been a hit with my husband and my in-laws over here in Australia (I'm Canadian, husband is Aussie).
Ewwww. Terrible show can’t get through an episode
How about the Smiths from Rosedale. Oops, sorry that's not a show. Not diverse enough.
@@TheFunkymohawk I tried to watch it. I was disappointed. It's like it wanted to be the next Corner Gas but they shoved woke shit in there for no reason at all.
when you were about to show the commercial, I was thinking of the house hippo.
Yeah no house hippo this guy messed big time
Peanut Butter is a Canadian (Montreal) invention. Kraft manufactures Peanut Butter in its Montreal facility.
Peanut butter is much older than this. In all probability is goes back to (at least) the Aztecs. But Canadians did invent Hawaiian pizza!
@@cyberpleb2472 Modern peanut butter is deffo a Canadian thing and it was patented.
Yeah, the USE of peanuts dates back to the Aztecs and Incas. But modern peanut butter was invented and patented by a Canadian. Basketball was also invented by a Canadian.
I did not know that
Huh. I thought African American George Washington Carver invented peanut butter. Don’t know.
Corner Gas is an epic show. One small clip cannot do it justice, and yes, ive gotten many American friends addicted to it too.
Trailer Park Boys or Letterkenny is hands down a much better show than Corner Gas. Corner Gas is an okay show i guess
@@Buckykatt gtfo outta here. Corner Gas is an endlessly quotable masterpiece. Letterkenny is a fake wannabe that feels like it's made by Americans who THINK this is how Canadians act. Trailer Park Boys is okay but it's no Corner Gas.
I like corner gas animated more
I grew up in Quebec and I’ve never heard of these shows. I really love this channel for the american vs. Canadian but also because I always learn more about the English-canadian culture that is so different from what I know! ❤️
Maybe, need a RUclips channel for Ontario vs Quebec theme. I'd watch that.
I’m montrealer and I know every show here
I grew up in Newfoundland, here we have, or at least had, cafeteria service all throughout the school system. And the “I Am Canadian “ commercial is iconic!!
I grew up in the county just above the Bronx (NYC) in New York State and in elementary school we didn’t have a cafeteria. We eat lunch in our classroom. You brought your lunch in a lunchbox (& later a brown bag as it was cooler when you’re older). We would sit on the grass outside when nice out. Our school district never served lunch even in middle school and high school.
Who here remembers You Can’t Do That On Television? It’s actually where Nickelodeon got the slime in there logo from.
And Alanis Morissette on it!
Made at CJOH-TV in Ottawa with all local performers, including Alanis.
Sure do. Always wondered who was going to get slimed.
I had a crush on Moose (Christine) when I was a teen.
I don't know.
I live in Florida and years ago they showed Corner Gas late at night...I loved it! They also would show I think it was called Davinci? It was a police show
@QueenB The series was called Da Vinci's Inquest.
Take care, and all the best.
Yes - loved both. We might’ve been watching the same channel - that’s about when I found Republic of Doyle too.
What was the sequel to DaVinci's Inquest, where he became mayor, called?
@@viddork Da Vinci’s City Hall.
@@thealbanianlorg6542
Makes sense. Thanks.
You need to show him Heritage Minutes. I don't see anything like that on US TV. Also the old Participaction commercials.
Not to forget body break
beachcombers! And that racoons cartoon!
THIS!
Totally agree!
House Hippo falls into this category too.
Beachcombers, Mr. Dress Up, The Friendly Giant? Awesome video. Loved it.
Anyone else remember You Can’t Do That On Television? The dangers of saying ‘water’ and ‘I don’t know.’
I grew up in the states and went to University in Manitoba so watched a lot of Canadian TV back in the day. Even ended up marrying a Canadian wife Right Choice by the way. There are the classics that I think still hold up today like SCTV and Kids in the hall and the movie The Great White North classic Canadian TV. We ended up buying all the DVDs for Corner Gas for all the seasons. Showed it to some of our city friends and they did not like it at all but showed it to some friends who grew up in the Prairies and the Plains and they totally got it. I think that those from the city just have a hard time understanding Prairie humor
SCTV was the funniest tv show ever
Funny I’m from Ontario, in Canada I’ve never been west of Thunder Bay and that was over 30 years ago. I got Corner Gas humour right from the 1st show.
@@TripReviews Canadian humour is far, far different than American, that's why.
callak _ yep, it can be. Now look at the overwhelming amount of American tv shows and comedy movies that have flooded the north. Now look at the success of Canadian comedians in the states such as John Candy, Martin Short who by the way is not funny, Rick Moranis just for a few examples. So it really is not a whole lot of difference. But I do see your point, cheers‼️🍻🇨🇦🇺🇸
I’m glad you enjoyed Winnipeg enough to stick around :)
Also, does he know that Shark Tank is just a spinoff from Dragon's Den in Canada. Both shows have Kevin O'Leary on them (although he's now left the Dragon's Den).
I believe all are a copy of a british series though!
@@ES1982-l1v it begans in Japan i think
Originally a Japanese show.
I am an american and I love Corner Gas!!!! One of my favorites.
Taryn Wilson yes I knew it was, or is aired in the States what network shows it? I’ve also seen Highway Thru Hell on American tv. I think it was on the weather channel/network, or what ever the all weather station is called. Glad you like Corner Gas.
Hilarious!! I'm Canadian 🇨🇦 and love it!
There was a short-lived CBC show called 'Hatching, Matching and Dispatching' with Mary Walsh an Shaun Majumder. It was a about a small town Newfoundland family and it was sheer brilliance. Circa 2005
I'd like to know what Jason thinks of Murdoch Mysteries. It's VERY Canadian. A character Crabtree is played by the guy who hosts Still Standing.
Kim - I personally don’t appreciate it, but to each their own.
Murdoch mysteries is life. You just have to be careful on the fact to fiction in the show if you dont know your history
@@8XxXShEiKXxX8 My teenage son is such a fan of Murdoch Mysteries. Actually, the show airs in the US on some obscure channel; it’s also in a lot of places around the world.
In the "old days" (pre-1980s?), elementary school kids where I grew up went home for lunch which was a short walk and then went back to school. Most kids used to walk to and from school by themselves.
Paul Y: here too. We didn't even have a lunchroom. I lived a mile from my elementary school, so it took me about 30 minutes to walk home. Thankfully we had 90 minutes for lunch. Noon, get out for lunch. 12:30, home in time for lunch and The Flintstones. 1:00, head back to school. Yes, through two feet of snow, uphill both ways. 😉
Yeah, I went home for lunch in the 90s, or, you could sit at your desk and eat. No place to buy food on school grounds (not even vending machines) until Jr High. I imagine it was their way of ensuring small children only ever ate what their parents provided and approved of.
That was me. Love from Calgary
the P.O.P was the best! especially wiping the dust off his briefcase haha!
They should’ve chose a clip from the littlest Yarbo which is a episode from corner gas where hank and Oscar have an encounter and it is hilarious
Murdoch Mysteries. Street Legal. Little Mosque on the Prairie. Kim’s Convenience. Orphan Black. Those are my five favorite Canadian shows.
Hey Joseph, interesting fact, food disposals are called garbarators here. Loved your commercial btw. It was too funny!
Here in BC they are not unusual.
I really gotta learn to read comments before I post my own. :P
Garbage disposals (garburators) are very common in Canada. I was a plumber for 15 years and installed them all of the time.
Almost every single USA TV show or movie inserts the flag in there, especially at the beginning. And they talk about the USA a lot on USA shows, they just don't realize it.
Most Canadians are very passionate about everything Canadian. That’s just who we are! We’re mostly polite about it,but we’re still passionate.😃
We got a lot of your Canadian shows... since most of Hollywood films up there. Also, Kids in the Hall.
Heartland is the longest running Canadian series, their 14th season starts on Monday. I love this show as much today as the first season.
I really feel like you could have found a better clip of Corner Gas. I also feel that the clip should have included Emma and Oscar.
I immediately thought of the "biggest hoe" scene
Yes show a clip witn them and then show some of Street Legal with the same actor who played Oscar
Best of Oscar Leroy / Corner Gas Season 1: ruclips.net/video/5Eb62Y8xTsM/видео.html
The fact this guy misses Kids in the Hall AND Kenny vs Spenny is highly suspicious.
Well, this show could have been several hours long. I showed him more than what you see, things were edited out for various reasons. Sorry about that.
My Parents, who live in Tennessee, love Corner Gas. It’s one of my Dads favorite shows.
In the 1970s the Canadian government wanted to promote bilingualism across Canada. They expanded the French network to Western Canada. A lot of men would stay up late to watch movies on the French network. It was not because they wanted to learn French but because the French network would show movies from France that had naked women in it. I learned that there was a movie produced in 1914 and released in 1915 that was called The Birth of a Nation. It was the most racist movie ever produced. It was a movie that glorified the Klu Klux Klan. Blacks in the USA rightfully hated that movie. I was told that no TV station in North America would show that movie. The French network showed it twice. It is one thing to show movies from France that had naked women in it but showing The Birth of a Nation was going too far.
You should have used the opening scene to the first episode of Corner Gas. I think nothing exemplifies what the show is about better than that cold open.
Corner Gas might be the thing that makes me most proud about living in Saskatchewan, it was filmed in Roleau and is actually still a pretty relevant representation of Saskatchewan from what I’ve seen. Letterkenny is awesome from what I’ve seen, but I can only relate to it with my travels to Ontario (and the chips, vinegar, and peanut butter, of course!)
Trailer park boys of course, and the movie FUBAR
Joseph, your daughter is so adorable! And you guys always give me a laugh. Another great video. Love seeing the USA vs. Canadian differences.
I'm new to your channel, enjoyed this. Have you discussed Rick Mercer's segment "Talking to Americans"?
I LOVE that special. Watched it the day it aired in Windsor. It was as a family after Sunday dinner with my Detroit born Grandma. She was so mad because she is a well educated & travelled woman. She actually cussed out at the Harvard professor. Hilarious!!!
Ohhhhh I wonder how he'd react to that :P I've never known an American who's seen it...
It was amazing, 17 Million viewers for it in 2002. Amazing
Oh yes, forgot about Rick Mercer. Good one
I watched an interview where someone from Molsons said "The rant" which is the I AM CANADIAN commercial was created after he heard someone from the US saying Canadians have no Canadian pride. He said it was never meant to be a money-making ad in beer sales for the company but more to show Canadians have a great deal of pride in being Canadian. That's why you only ever see the Name Molson or see beer right at the end and is the only time Molson is mentioned. It became at the time (not sure about now) the most profitable ad in sales in their history.
We have lots of pride but we just don't see the need to yell it. That's the Canadian way. I like it.
Yeah, they really tapped into some common experiences there. I'm Canadian and you grow up hearing how we have little identity, etc. but that's just from a bunch of dummies imo. Spend any amount of time overseas and you see the distinctions right away, & that only grows with time.
I went on exchange to Australia years ago, and was picked up by some university employees (along with a few other students arriving that day), and it was hilarious - one driver asked me if I was American, and the other snapped back and said "you've been doing this job for this long and you *still* can't tell the difference? She's obviously Canadian" and they both looked at me to see how I'd answer and I was like, "Yeah, I'm Canadian" haha. Then she schooled him on all the differences, it was pretty funny. & I'm from Alberta, so one of the places that's supposed to be less obviously Canadian in terms of accent and stuff. Now that I've lived in Australia for like 4 years, I can pick out American vs Canadian actors with a pretty good amount of accuracy. We share so much media and business ties with the US, but a lot of people (on both sides, I'd wager) don't realize that beyond that, there are a lot of small distinctions that add up. At this point, I'd genuinely say that Australia is culturally more similar to us than the US is, even though we get jokes about being America Jr. all the time.
@@aerialpunk I can absolutely believe that, lol; I'm pretty sure the country Canada is the closest to culturally is New Zealand (from what I can tell from here in Canada, never having visited NZ--yet!). Mind you, all three are Commonwealth countries, so we do have that strong connection that we don't have with America.
@@KryssLaBryn Yes that's true, I think the Commonwealth thing is part of it. There's a more obvious British influence here in Australia than there is in Canada, but it does bring some common ground to the countries for sure.
I haven't been to NZ either and have only known one person from there (who thought Canada was more laidback than NZ). I'm sure being the less influential country next to a bigger one would bring some commonality there :P But I think with Australia, part of the similarities also come from history (broadly similar ways of forming their own country, broadly similar history with Indigenous people), and a similar geographic makeup (huge country with a lot of empty space & most people concentrated in a thin strip). Both countries have things like music, shows that everyone within the country knows but fewer people outside of it are aware of it. And Australia is a little more socialistic, in similar ways to Canada, & that brings some common ground too (like with regard to politics and social stuff I think they're more similar to each other than the US, both are a little more moderate).
Best sitcom recently in Canada "Schitts Creek" :)
I love Corner Gas.
It’s so funny
It takes a few episodes to appreciate the genius
Hilarious House of Frightenstein - watched in in the 70's - broadcasted from Hamilton's CHCH TV - a lot of the characters were done by Billy Van!!
I'm a Hamiltonian...we're quite proud of that show. 😀😀

1000000%
Of all the scenes and clips of Corner Gas, you use that one? Also, Corner Gas is on amazon or hulu in the US (and for us is still on the air in animated form - just won an award too).
Also - commercials - doncha put it in your mouth, house hippo. Other shows: trailer park boys, Raccoons, Anne.
Met Johnny Harris when he passed through my small town, he is a genuinely nice guy! And funny!
Jason needs to see The Beachcombers, The Littlest Hobo, King of Kensington, The Friendly Giant, Mr.Dressup, The House Hippo commercial, NFB cartoon shorts, Heritage minutes...
It's funny how just inside Canada there is a culture shock. Being french canadian I only learned about those show later in life with youtube and facebook. Just I.E., Thanksgiving. I had an Ontario friend asking me what I was doing for thanksgiving and I was like : "Isn't that an American thing?". We don't celebrate that here, just an other day like any other.
When the video started I though he was going to show him the House Hippo commercial😞
I was disappointed too

We push our brand because we are flooded with the US brand.
Required by the CRTC, isn't it? A certain percentage of all content on tv or radio must be Canadian produced, or something like that.
Corner Gas is actually filmed right outside of Regina in Rouleau, its the first town to the south. Very small place, maybe a few hundred people.
Drove through it a few years back. Like, the Prairies are pretty flat (well, more rolling), especially to me, having grown up on the northwest coast of BC; but Rouleau is just *ridiculously* flat. Just crazy. Flat to the horizon in all directions. Completely boggled my mind.
You should have shown him The Frantics “Boot to the Head”, “Mr Canoehead”, “The Log-driver’s Waltz” and the first Molson Canadian Beer Fridge commercial.
Littlest hobo? Was that Canadian? Loved it as a kid. Or Danger bay. A series based from the Vancouver Aquarium. A dr. Robert's and his 2 kids.
The Littlest Hobo was definitely Canadian. Danger Bay was a childhood staple.
Yes to both! 🇨🇦
The Forest Rangers, Razzle Dazzle, the Friendly Giant, Mr. Dressup, Chez Helene. I could go on.
@@stevenleonard7219 I'm not the only Canuck who watched The Forest Rangers, after all!
Bonus-points for mentioning TFG!
I didn't watch it, but I think The Polka-Dot Door is another classic Canadian kids' show. And what about Circle Square? Harriet's Magic Hats? Smith & Smith?
CTV still plays Corner Gas all the time. I recently cancelled my cable (finally) and only get a few channels now with a digital antenna. I always knew of Corner Gas back when new episodes were still being made, but never really watched it until very recently. It's quite funny and all characters are likable.
My elementary school (in Ontario) didn't have a cafeteria either, but most people lived close enough to walk home for lunch. Some people stayed at school, and they had a few classrooms designated as "lunch rooms" for the people who were staying at school to eat lunch.
This Hour has 22 Min, some amazing skits over the years.
You gotta show this guy "Talking to Americans"
I've been trying to find the skit for "The New adventures of the Littlest Hobo" when Colin Mochrie was on. It was hilarious, but it seems like it's been scrubbed from the internet.
"Through the magic of taxidermy, we've reunited the original cast!"
I am America but grew up on Canadian tv from Today’s Special , Forever Knight and Degrassi and love the newer stuff like Shitt’s Creek or Kim’s Convenience and the secretly Canadian Sci-fi that like Warehouse 13 that claims to be American till you notice they are clearly at Casa Loma.
I grew up on the west coast ( BC/Alberta) almost every house had a garbage disposal. But they were called garborators.
Alberta central air conditioning is fairly standard in every house. But not in BC.
Back in the day, though, BC didn't need A/C, because we have (had) a decently stable climate in the Lower Mainland; no summer too hot, no winter too cold...
We didn't have a garburator (Damn, it's been a while since I heard/used that term!), but my cousins did.
I was born in Alberta, but grew-up and live in southern BC.
Oh, come on man! Corner Gas is my favrourite comedy show of all time. I love it.
Maybe show him our versions of investigative tv like W5 or The Fifth Estate
Market Place, Street Cents
Exhibit A, with Graham Greene, for the win.
The best
If you repeat this with movies, might I suggest Bon Cop, Bad Cop? Great flick that laughs at our linguistic and cultural gaps with affection for both. Genuinely bilingual films are pretty rare, even here.
That is my favourite Letterkenny clip! 😂😂 So glad they played it.
I love this series a lot! I first watched it because I wanted to know what America does and how different it is from us, but now I just watch it for fun
you two are wholesomely hilarious. Love it.
I love watching Kim's convenience 🇨🇦
Really. I will check it out on Netflix. Hi from America.
It’s a really funny show. I love it as well. 🇨🇦
Ohhh Kim's Convenients is bomb! 🥰👍
Terrible show.
Holymakinaw no sense of humor need not apply.
This American has a more Canadian accent than most Canadians I know.
You should have told him about just for laughs, and just for laughs gags. That show is Canadian, and it is well known across Canada.
Ha your wrong we American's LOOOOOOOVE trailer park boys!!!
Worst. Show. Ever.
Sorry anyone under 30 likes that show I'm not gonna try and relate to peoplw that aren't even close to my age or demographic lol srry
My husband and his best buddy loved Trailer Park Boys during its run and nicknamed my son J-rock when he was little because of it. Now my 17 yr old son loves it.
I'm 38, I love that show, and quote random "ricky-isms" daily
Tim's is owned by Americans now...and it sucks! Their business model is destroying the chain.

Not the same taste anymore
actually they are a subsidiary of Restaurant Brand international, who's owned in majority by the Brazilain investement Firm 3G Capital. And yeah coffee is horrible now.
Actually no, On paper Tims bought Burger king, but in reality the US guys are calling the shots
onwed by a brazlian hedge fund I think
Good video. Needed more House Hippo and "The Littlest Hobo" though.
Yes, house hippo!! I still want one of them 😂
I have a small plush hippo toy I move around my house everyone I clean. He migrates. I always wanted a house hippo as a kid.
Melissa Blais - So do I! 😭
I forgot the Littlest Hobo, that was a great show! I liked Friday the 13th, too.
I grew up in Victoria British Columbia, our city is on an island and jolts below the 49th parallel, in the 1960s with Attenas we would get mostly Seattle and a Tv station from Bellingham Washington, As a child I thought I was an American, Then we got more stations from Vancouver bc and went to school and was corrected
Our tv is dominated by U.S. shows so we know lots of them. I just binge-watched a HandMaid's Tale and I got a charge out of recognizing all the locations because it was filmed around here. It was written by a Canadian so it makes sense to film it in Canada.
The only homes I saw with garburators were in Willowdale and the Beaches.
My school introduced a lunch room when I was in grade 5. Back then only a handful of kids stayed at school at lunch time, we had a cafeteria in jr and high school.
Canadian TV shows - Street Legal, Murdoch Mysteries, Kim's Convenience, Transplant, Due South, Degrassi, Vikings, Red Green Show, Little Mosque On The Prairie, Da Vinci's Inquest, Reboot, Kids In The Hall, Night Heat, SCTV, Good Rockin' Tonight, King of Kensington, The Natue of Things, Schitt's Creek. My sister-in-law & her daughter were on the kids game show Just Like Mom.
When I was in elementary school, we ate packed lunches from home in the gym. They would set up these long, folding tables. You had to sit with your class at designated tables. Then in middle school, (different building) there was a cafeteria but no food was served. Still packed lunches from home. In high school, we had a cafeteria that did serve food. But I still got sent with a packed lunch.
We have garbage disposals in Canada lol I've had one in my condo and now my house.
Growing up in Ontario, in elementary we went home for lunch
In the NYC suburbs, we were allowed to go home from middle school and high school. You could also go to a local pizzeria or deli (we didn’t have any fast food chains in our village).
I grew up in Ontario too but didn't go home for lunch in school home was too far away I was in the country from grade 3 to 12
Cafaterias are very common all across canada in schools. We had them in Newfoundland, parents would prepay for meals each week from a menu given to us to take home each thursday, pick out meals for each day of the week on the list, then sent us back with the envelope friday morning to hand in to the teachers, that way the school knew what to cook for you monday to friday the following week. edit... its costed an average of $25 a week for a kid to eat from the school cafteria, lunch program was partially funded by the government, kept the price low for parents and of course removes the hassle of meal prep for their kids everyday.
What about Heartland? It’s been around at least 13 seasons. And an awesome show!
Corner gas! Love that show but you have to watch it more than once to get into 😂
I also think that people that grew up on the Prairie or the planes get it much faster and find it much funnier than those that grew up in the city
Yeah that wasn't the best clip he could have shown IMO
Em Daily, I thought it was brilliant, very intelligently written.
LetterKenny is great at times. Then at times it can be silly, but I recommend it. Pitter-patter
Johnny Harris was also in the TV Period Drama series Murdoch Mysteries, his character was Constable George Crabtree. The series takes place in Toronto starting in 1895, they celebrated the first female Medical Examiner during that time period in Canada by having one for the series. I really enjoy the series... Its on it's 14th season.
Plenty of homes in Canada have a garburator. My mom would throw chicken bones down to clean out the sludge.
A few years ago, we had "19-2", a police drama made in Québec. On the second season's first episode, there was a scene with a school shooting shot in ONE continuous take 12 minutes long.
ruclips.net/video/m-pz-P4KpRM/видео.html

19-2 was such a good show. Great cop drama, as was Flashpoint.

Degrassi junior high ❤

What about Little Mosque on the prairie! Love your channel, keep up the good work! I live in Nova Scotia and last summer a lady in Virginia USA asked if I knew her friend from Edmonton! I had to tell her that it was about 4,000 miles away. Duh! 🇨🇦😎
Should've asked her if she knew your friend who lives in San Jose and insist they're neighbors...
Little Mosque was a great show, and I think it might be a surprise for some Americans.
Sees a 2 second clip. Rates the entire show and speaks for everyone in America.
In elementary school we never ate in class rooms, in Quebec. We use to have lunch at home and for kids who couldn’t go home during lunch time we had a room with tables. Food wasn’t served, you had to bring your lunch. We also had free lunch for kids who were poor.
