You know he's Canadian when he throws in a newfie joke
Omg yes lol
I was about to say the same thing, even throse.out "eh" at the end
I hate prejudice people - but mostly Newfies!
Kamm 17 it’s funny because almost everyone over here is fat
Anyone can sling a newfie joke.....geez, i wish you had more spirit
As a Canadian I didn’t think 3/4 of these things were slangs
Super Cam fr tho it’s daily English for us 😂
Hahaha, actually tho I just never realized hahahaha
Pretty common in these Vanity Fair things. VF staff don't seem to distinguish between words that differ between dialects and actual slang words (that differ between dialects).
As a Canadian it really is weird hearing him say all these words I use on a daily basis and thinking ti myself "do other countries really not say/ have that"
I've never actually heard anyone say hoser before, lol
You can tell he’s Canadian because he knows how to land his “eh” naturally. Americans make me cringe when they say “eh” trying to sound Canadian.
Thank you for respecting our prescious word. It's only when I come south do people make me realize how many times I say eh
No dout a bout it eh! It's ok we suck at the y'all's.
Ikr? What part of canada do people actually talk like that, cause now im curious?
@@Dragoriax3 Ontario
Americans don’t seem to understand that we use “Eh” in place of the word “Right”. For example, The Weather Sure Is Cold Eh?
You have no idea how many high school hockey boys talk like this. Seriously.
Totally. I've never felt more Canadian than when I was playing hockey
Oh boy, the hockey slang goes way beyond this.
its worse in the maratimes
I can’t even understand people over there alone with the frucking hockey boy talk they’re basically speaking another language
Dude, when i was in high school, my friends and me had to teach the American student how to speak like us. A week later, you couldn’t tell he was American
Will Arnett sounds like Seth rogen’s laugh just got a voice of its own
YES!! OMGG
*_yes_*
Zohaib Bukhari wooooow
WTF SO TRUE
LMAOOOO FRRRR
The Canadian accent is also unique because it seems to get stronger the drunker you get.
My Wisconsin accent is like that lol
EVERY accent gets stronger the drunker the speaker gets.
Except the Canadian accent is only Eastern, mostly Newfoundland (gaelic ancestry), everyone else is faking.
Oblithian wrong my friend it's everywhere in Canada... except for in the cities like Toronto, Vancouver, and such. Oh and and all of the froggy lands
You sir/madam have never met a newfie.
The Canadian accent comes into full effect when your hammered. Trust me
Good thing I'm not a stinking Alcoholic like most sack of sh*t Canucks.
@@matguimond92 holllllay easyyyy eeee 😜
@@matguimond92 I'm sorry your yellow snow clears throat I mean Budweiser isn't to your taste. Crack a cold Molson you'll feel better, if not I can show you what the back 40 looks like.
Oh my god you couldn't be more true. I hate watching videos after a crazy night and hearing myself
@@pappi8338 hahaha
Also “bud” is a Canadian slang and he lands it perfectly xD
@Tristan Ellis Gaming turns out yer canadian bud
Toque is a slang? I'm Canadian and I just thought it was a normal word.
Edit: that's... a lot of likes. Never had this many before. Thanks!
I thought "Toque" would be written like "Touque" (a real Canadian word) but I guess I was wrong.
Me two
Same I did too when I heard him say it I was like wait what... I have been lied too
@@siggizippan8076 people spell it differently. I spell it touque.
@@siggizippan8076 In french it's Tuque.
We also refer to the U.S.A. as “the states”, never “America”. “Went to the states on the weekend, just given’er, turned out to be a total gong show.
Michelle Webster hahaaaa best comment...so true too. And that guy in charge....total hoser. He should take off eh!
This one bothers me. The Americas are are a large place, and the US is only one country a part of it. They have a centre of the universe complex type a thing.
Elizabeth Hudson perhaps that’s why Canadians say “the States” and not “America.
Pretty sure even americans call it the states when theyre abroad. Could be wrong but i saw an american comedian judah friedlander discussing american culture, this was a major topic of the show he did
Speak for yourself, Michelle. Everyone I know uses "The States" and "The U.S." and "America" interchangeably.
Just to clarify, a mickey doesn't only refer to crown royal. A mickey is just any 375ml bottle of liquor
When I was in the States my ex used to get "half pints" .. and I was just like. "Isnt that a Micky??" He had no idea what I was talking about lol.
Now I understand the joke of a texas mickey being massive.
Also a two four isn’t a case of beer it’s a flat
Angela Dyrland we don’t call it a flat in Montreal. We also don’t say 6 beer. We say 6 beers.
So a tad bigger than a can of pop, which is 355.
I really enjoy that he casually said “Shinny” in a sentence without thinking and that one wasn’t on the definition list.
For anyone wondering, it’s casual or pick up hockey.
Shinny is hockey but with a lot more then 12 players on the ice at once .........usually played on a actual pond
@@randytessman6750 well yes thats probably the true definition of it, but i have also heard pickup being called shinny. In this context of a rink rat it is assumed that its basically just pick up at the rink.
The way he said, "Oh give'r" was so genuine, I felt obligated to go do something productive.
Depending on who says it, it'll do that sometimes lol
😂
his "sweet ipad eh" was spot on
SAME 😂
I'm pretty sure I've heard it said before some very unproductive things 😂
It was actually refreshing to see a Canadian star be in touch with Canadian culture. Seems like most of them are Canadian by Birth Certificate only lol
preach!
Yes!!!! Yes!!!! Speak the truth
You can say justin bieber and drake
Chris Dallaire Canadian culture? 😂 There is no such thing. Canadians don’t have their own culture.
@@kbs1212 take off eh
If you don’t know half of these you’re an urban Canadian if you know them all you’re a rural Canadian
Chloe MacKinnon if you don’t know any you’re a fawkin Newfie
Rural Canadian here. Know most of the terms but don’t use them. Although sometimes I say giver when I’m being silly. Some of these words are used in some places and not others.
And I don’t like Tim Horton’s .
True story.
It goes by province - we don't say most of these and definitely don't talk like that
Opposite for me I know like half (maybe a bit more than half) and I live in a town of 300 people
What are you on?
Hoser: Back in the day before there were zambonis the losing team had to hose down the ice. They were called hosers....
Thank you, I’ve always wondered! 🤯
alex irons yeah. Some say it’s a combination of the word hose and loser others say it’s just what it is...hoser because you’re hosing down the ice. Heard it a while ago but I found this article that has other meanings for it... www.mentalfloss.com/article/51399/where-does-word-hoser-come
no way!! for real/ That's so cool!!!
Aaron Antone heard it more than 20 years ago. That’s why I provided a link in one of my other replies on this thread
answering the real questions over here
My favourite part of this is the use of "bud". That's the most legit rural Canadian slang.
As a Canadian, "bud" is the most used slang I use. lol
R . E and there are a lot of Canadians including Canadian vigilantes who do often use the “bud“ term.
This is the truest comment I've seen so far.
Like how he ends his sample sentences with "bud" as short for buddy? I didn't even realize that counted as a slang :O do Americans not say this? :O
Oh big time
i’ve never realized how canadian his voice sounded until right now
He's hamming it up for effect.
@@BigMikeMcBastard You would think so, but I saw a video of him at a party, and slightly intoxicated him speaks like this.
He sounds like a normal person imo
Jude Sweeney I was like. LEGO Batman is Canadian!?!?
@@DimensionDr4gon what? So we're all like special needs or something? I don't get it lol
Never realized how much Canadian slang i used, like literally almost all of these words i use daily lol.
Are you Canadian?
@@andrewndify Yeeeeep
@@Undross Fuckin eh bud
Most of these aren't considered slang...
I’d also like to add; yeah, no. Means “I understand what you’re saying and agree that’s bull. (No)“ And no, yeah! Means “I understand what you’re saying, and I agree that that’s awesome! (Yes)”
I love this one cause if I'm in a conversation I'm really passionate about or I'm in a hurry, the "yeah, no" or "no, yeah" turns into "yeahyeahyeahnoyeahno" 😂😂
In Australia it is “yeah, nahhhhhh” for no, and “no, yeah” for yes. City people probably never hear it.
No for sure! = I agree 😂
I've always been of the opinion that canadians and Australians are kindred spirits 😂
Huh i have not yet heard "and no, yeah" but the first one I say all the time an hear alot, didnt know it was just canadians who say this
Absence Of Light Hmmm. If i were to say that here in America, i will get looked at the wrong way. That’s all sarcasm phrases for us.
I didn't know that kerfuffle was uniquely Canadian. That makes me happy, somehow.
LOL me too! Cuz I say it all the time!
brits say it too!
And gong show too, like wth
Nah Americans use it too. Same with gong show
Australians use it too.
Honestly, as a Canadian, I thought Will Arnett was going to be yet another Canadian Hollywood actor who is out of touch with current Canadian culture... but he nailed it!
Totes. I would say he could have elaborated a bit more on 'out for a rip' though. He didn't mention boating, skiing/boarding, snowmobiling or ATV'ing, which is REALLY what it implies.
Nothing too current about any of these except maybe the six.
except he got the very first one, "hoser" incorrect...
he messed up hoser and out for a rip. a rip is a cruise. and Rink Rats(Puck Bunnies)
Honestly, I've never heard Hoser used unironically.
Bro as a Canadian, looking through the comments is pure gold--Americans will never know how beautiful these are
Amen!
Pure gold mining guy
well, let's sit back and watch this with a bag of ketchup potato chips.
im getting my dill picklers bud
I’m eating Lays ketchup chips right now 🤣
Those are the best
Or some fries with a cup of mayo for dipping. LOL
@@kreggbarnhart4734 Pretty sure that’s more of an American thing lol
As a Canadian, half of them I’m like “what” and the other half I’m like “Americans don’t say that???”
American here. Lol. I said kerfuffle in a sentence to my husband/myself a couple days ago. I had to explain it to him and was told (again) that I use old words. Lol!
Degenerate channel name
You said you were a canadian, but the lack of knowledge in the words used here determined that to be a lie!
WHAT? this is the first time I've recognized ALL the slang... Perhaps this is pure Ontario slang. I've heard it all ( plus lots more of their own invention in Letterkenny which fans would know is based on Listowel Ontario ie small town farming country) Pitter patter...
but...they were all correct in what he said.
My eyes: Will Arnett
My ears: BoJack Horseman
Aiden Morgan same
Omg me too!!!
Weird hearing that voice come out of a face that's more man than a horse.
my heart: Lego Batman
"Two eggs side-by-each on a pair of toast" 💯Canadian
That is one i haven't heard
I've also heard sunny-side down.
@@3shayll I think that one is more East Coast.
100% French Canadian.
@@GodRock369 - Yes, it's French-Canadian and has variations. It is often, "Two eggs side-by-each, with their faces to the sun, meaning eggs over easy.
As an American I like Will Arnett more now that I know he's not American
as a canadian, me too :P
Weird flex but ok
Djobo Kuwali As a Canadian, I always thought he was American.
I didn't even know some of these were exclusively Canadian wtf
me too! i thought most were universal in NA
I’ve only heard like 7 of these and I’ve NEVER heard anyone ever say any of this other garbage
Kerfuffle is used in the UK as well :D I didn't know it wasn't just a general English language word so that was cool to lean xD
Pop is British.
I swore Double-Double was used elsewhere
this is the only accurate canadian slang video i've seen
yes!
You're absolutely right, I thought the same thing.
Wabbit -tan it really is. In Atlantic Canada everyone talks like that.
Everyone in BC told me going out for a rip meant a drive though
Agreed!
0:27 YO WINNIPEG TO PORTAGE!! It’s so cool seeing someone talk about our little city on such a big platform!!
& 2:52 !! the peg
sameeeee
As soon as I heard hoser and 2-4 I immediately thought of the McKenzie brothers.
Time to play the Beer Hunter.
koooo roooo koo koo koo koo koo koooo!
He said "That's a Newfie joke eh" and the "Eh" just seemed so natural and not forced. So precious.
Well stop using them! Douchebag! It's all we got!
Sorry didn't realize it was a female.
I noticed that as well.
This is the most accurate Canadian slang video I’ve ever and will ever see
At least he uses "eh" correctly. I always cringe when Americans try to do a Canadian accent, and they put "eh" in places we'd never use it.
he even threw in a newfie joke in there for good measure
I didn’t know that gong show was uniquely Canadian. I thought everyone said that lol.
As an American I can tell you I'd never heard the term gong show until this video
@@nba_fan7214 okay. Thanks for replying!
I had no idea either!!
@@autumnbailey1176 Right? The rest I knew but gong show I thought everyone knew that one. The more you know.
The Gong Show was a crazy American talent show in the 1970s. It featured a mix of real talent and absurd crappy acts. When the act was really bad the judges could strike the huge gong with a large mallet and that would dismiss the act. It was at times ridiculous which is why you might say a party or event is a gong show (i.e. ridiculously crazy). Although it was broadcast in the states many Canadians received American TV signals and created the term. Unfortunately Americans do not use the term, I gather.
Moment he said giver, my beer magically opened
Haha I love how it’s all related to drinking, smoking, fighting, hockey, and Tim hortons. That’s the prairies in a nutshell.
*the whole country in a nutshell!
@@lucrativelyrics8131 Except for B.C., BC is the land of hippies.
LardmanAttack Nope. That’s just Vancouver. Where I live I know all of the slang Will Arnett said.
Alberta represent
Eric Schick also boonie bouncing! Ripping up the Sticks! Lol
He throws in a newfie joke... WOW
What's the Maritimes number 1 export?
*Population*
Good thing that Newfoundland and Labrador isn't a Maritime province.
And yeah, it's sad. I thought the joke would be prefaced by some of our slang. But no, he just HAD to make a Newfie joke.
Mackenzie Kurzynski ya...he's a dickweed. I honestly had to Google who he is lmao
LMFAO I Googled him...don't like any of the movies he's in 😄
Kind of offensive though, eh
Hoser is slang for loser. After a hockey match the losers have to hose down the ice.
“Watch me spill a Double Double on my $3000 suit, eh? COME ON!!!”
Bud what're you doing rippin over to timmies in an expensive suit like that in the first place 😂
I didn't even know we had our slang. Then I realized I actually know all of these.
Me too lol
This was the best explanation of Canadian slang ever. Also his accent is on point. 👌
my favourite is that you can tell he's really toned it down for his acting, bc how he's speaking at the beginning of the vid, to how he sounds at the end is so completely different! 😂 you can take the boy out of Canada, but you can't take the "Eh!" out of the boy!
What accent? Sounds like a pegger
We don't have accents, eh.... ;)
Keith Lightminder lu
come over the maritimes if you want some good slang
Love the accent and tone he throws in with his examples 😂 nails it
I love how his accent comes out more and more as this goes on.
"do you guys not have that word down here?" SAME.
I'm a Canadian in my 50's and I have never heard anyone use the term "hoser", except on SCTV
Stop hosin' everyone, eh?
It's a hockey term.
I haven't heard it used in western Canada, but in the mid 60's we moved to Ottawa, and every guy in middle school used it all the time.
I heard it a lot in the early ‘80s during my late elementary and throughout junior high school years.
I heard it a lot in Winnipeg, 90s and early 2000s
This reminds me of the good old days living in the prairies. City folk don’t really use most of these terms.
Qwerty and Azerty yeah it’s true. I grew up rural Ontario and went to Toronto when I turned 18. After 27 years in Toronto you couldn’t find very many who spoke canadianease. I call my best friend in Toronto a loser not a hoser sadly. I should really call him a hoser.
Last time I was in the big smoke (I am old, that is what we used to call TO - never hogtown) I could not find anyone that spoke English let alone Canadian. I lived in the US for 12 years. Man did they ever make fun of me.
As a Canadian, when someone says Bud after a sentence i just wanna laugh especially after a serious talk
It’s pretty surreal eh, hearing a celebrity mention Portage La Prairie in a Vanity Fair interview, don’t ya think bud?
Fuckin rights bud
It's nowhere near 150 kliks between Portage La Prairie and The Wicked Peg, goldurnit!
Yeah actually. Some random as town in manitoba. Kinda cool
Fuckin a’ man
People know the name Portage better for an Avenue than a town😂
Oh thank god this wasn’t a Toronto slang video
Right. Toronto's such an insignificant place. Only 2.5 million people. Blink and you'll miss it.
I totally agree
@@davidbroughall3782 Toronto ruuuuuuulllllleeeeesss
Ahlie fham
@@davidbroughall3782 I know, eh? 6 million people if we count the entire GTA area.
“That’s a Newfie joke eh” holy I was so shocked he knew that!!!!
A rink rat is a person that works at the arena.
I've never heard goal suck. I would use cherry picker instead.
Brian Z cherry picker is an american term not canadian.
ye i always used cherry picker
As a Canadian I had no idea that half the stuff on this list was slang xD
lmmaooo ikrrr
same
ya this video was kinda really bad lol
My favourite is “May 2-4” which means the long weekend in May no matter what date Victoria Day falls on.
Everett Harper I've never heard that... We always say " May Long"
Might be a GTA thing.
Fun fact, May 24th is Queen Victoria's actual birthdate.
@@trevorashman2258 I came here to say that exact thing.
@@thetruth1024 Nope, I hear May 2-4 quite often in Eastern Ontario as well.
The touque was something that was SO said in my life in my American household with a Québeois mother.
She LOVED hockey! She never cared about who won, just if they drew blood! We were a NYR unit, but would watched everything. My uncle, Guy, was a coach in the Detroit system. The signed sticks are priceless family heirlooms gone through the generations.
I knew O Canada! before The Star Bangled Banner before kindergarten. I am middle aged and still get goosebumps singing O Canada! at our local AHL team.
Hockey night in Canada with Don Cherry was our church.
💕 Aw! That’s amazing. Thank you for sharing!
Toque is a French, specifically French Canadian word so it makes sense your mother would say it.
@@sabrina.natalie You're welcome.
I can't unsee BoJack every time he talks
I've lived in Canada for 25 years (since birth). The only times ive ever heard someone say Hoser is usually an american trying to make a canadian joke. I have never in my life heard a canadian say Hoser.
Agreed
Take off, eh!
Yeah, take off, eh? Yer just to young to remember sctv... I say hoser all the time!
Mostly died off before SCTV brought it back.
Same. I've only ever heard it on TV
To me, a winter hat is a toque and a hat with a propeller on top is a beanie.
winter hat is a toque but a beanie is the same thing except its shaped like a peanut, also known as a skully.
Weird, in Wisconsin we call a "toque" a toboggan, or a hat that's worn while tobogganing. We call toboggans, sleds... shrug. 'Course we also have a ton of Yiddish slang as well... love Yiddish... it's just fun words to pronounce!
Omg YAAAAAAAS
I never heard of toque until recently. But beanie to me is a hat w a propeller. I just call it a hat
As a Wisconite, I have never called a hat a toboggan. A toboggan is a wooden sled /sleigh
"My pogey came today so I'm off to the government store to buy a 2-4 and a micky then I'm off to the boys house to watch the game."
To get your booze you would have to go to the "LC" and the "Vendor".
Are the knuckle heads playing the habs?! Lol
I feel like I’m hearing Bojack Horseman just talk about Canadian slang 😂
Same mate
Another important one is that Canadians never say the second T in Toronto, it’s Torono eh bud.
or the second a in Calgary. Gunna go fer a rip to Calgry.
I usually hear people say it like Trawna
As a person who lived there, I would agree, though I found people outside of Alberta pronounce it CalAgry rather than Calgry
wayy too many syllables you noob! T'ronna all day you fuckin hosers.
that was a little harsh, sorry buds.
I COMPLETELY agree, I hate the word beanie
Mister Sweetness you're cringy.
A beanie is the thing Jughead wears with the whirligig on top.
The most accurate one of these I've ever seen.
I've spent a decent amount of time in some mountain towns in western US and have heard most of these but I did not know some of them were Canadian phrases...always cool to learn more about that sort of thing.
Oh, Will, you slide into that Canadian accent hard when you wanna, eh? Sounds good on you, bud.
He's not your bud, pal.
Michael Cameron everyone’s a bud to a Canadian
Michael Cameron he's not your pal buddy
Mamataco Paco He;s not your buddy, friend
I read that in the accent
As a Canadian didn't realize the rest of the world didn't use some of these words
"evestroughing"
Hoser wasn’t used since 1979... when Bob and Doug McKenzie made an album.
I spent most of my 20's not realizing they didn't use the term "pencil crayons" anywhere else.
what the heck are they called elsewhere??
@@RabidChasebot "Colored pencils" in the States.
@@stapler942 oh. i guess that actually kinda makes more sense tbh lol
HE KNOWS THAT PORTAGE LA PRAIRIE IS A PLACE?! Bless you Will ❤️ I’m a Manitoban and have never been more impressed
Me too! I was born in Hamiota, Manitoba down near Brandon. Only stayed there for two years though.
except its not 150 clicks
but about 6 beers sounds right
I feel sorry that you had to grow up there.
If you spent any time listening to CBC anywhere in the country, at some point you're gonna hear a weather forecast for Portage La Prairie.
"Hey you hosers, pass me a serviette, eh - I just spilled my poutine on the Chesterfield"
That's pure gold! You made this canuck chuckle! Now take off eh!
Brilliant!!
This might be the most Canadian sentence of all time!
No way, eh!? I think he missed "serviette" in his list there too though, eh? Hoser!
Funny
Should have had Jared Kesso do it.
"You're doing a video with Vanity" To Be Fairrrrr" the other dayyyy".
I’m British and we definitely use kerfuffle as well - I thought everyone used it!
Never heard the term 'goal sucker' .... We actually call it a 'cherry picker' ... lol.
Ya thats used in womens hockey ;)
@@unknownpirate3290 Then there's "seagull" - someone who hangs out at the far blue line waiting for a pass.
It's cherry picker here in SK
I just knew "seagull"....
It’s cherry picker in quebec too.
Thank you! When Yanks say "beanie", I think of one of those little rainbow hats with a propeller on top!
Reviewy McReviewface "Yanks"
No
Beany and Cecil -- Beany wore a beanie and it looked *nothing* like a toque!
That's because the term beanie applies to both kinds of hats. Nobody wears propeller hats anymore.
Reviewy McReviewface exactly!!
One of the best in the series. The guys is at ease with the topic.
I loved this.. laughed my butt off! Some I haven't heard for years.. thanks for posting this!
I always spelled it "Klicks" with a K because its based on Kilometers.
Travis Lee yeah me too
Its also not really canadian. Its more a military thing.
Yeah well thats like..the tuque. They spelled it with an "o" as "Toque" but it isnt with an O, it's with an "U"
Out for a rip means going for a drive and doing nothing in particular
Yessir. "I'm just going for a rip to pick up some smokes."
Just out for a rip are-ya bud?
Nah out for a rip means goin out n given-r
Or going for a pleasure cruise - "we went out for a rip in Terry's dad's boat"
You got stuck in the mud? Giv'er!
As an Albertan I seriously don’t think he has an accent, I understand everything he is saying
That just means you also have the accent.
He does lol you also have an accent. We can't hear it because we have one
LOVE Will’s Newfie joke!!!!😂😂😂
His voice sounds like he constantly needs to clear his throat lol
he killed a few too many darts in his youth
yeah, i thought he was sick or something.... that's not his normal voice
like he just woke up
That's why he plays a horse
Bobbius Shadow pretty sure it is
This is one of the most accurate Canadian slang videos I've seen so far.
"Put on your bunnyhug in the cold and bring me a Vi-Co before you go, my dear..."
Just crusin' the grid roads are ya?? Watch out for the farmers, those fuckers dont signal
Thank you for this, it was all good!!
"Hoser" always reminds me of The Adventures of Bob & Doug McKenzie: Strange Brew.
Take off eh!
A Classic!!!
"I'd kiss you if I didn't have puke breath"
Love those guys.
I seriously can't find a good copy of that movie. Found one online but stops at 40 minutes. I wanna see what those hosers were up to.

Y'know, I don't know Eda and Bro _suuuuuuuuuuuper_ well, but I _do_ how precious and _rare_ it is to find that one missing puzzle piece who completes you. And when you know, you _know,_ y'know? So congrats to the happy couple for knowing!
Eda Akb Would a ring pop suffice?..just for the time being love
The Sneezing Picture Thank you for your kind words, we really appreciate it, you've been nothing but nice in this short time we've known you, so we'd like to extend an invitation, if you'd like to come.
I had been to Toronto and Winnipeg recently and had seen this video before that.
Was so happy hearing most of these words! Especially the eh , bud , timmies, loonies and toonies…..loved it ❤
Fantastic! Thank you so much.
I can’t believe I didn’t know he was Canadian. I’ve heard most of these, it’s funny that the states doesn’t have most of these words.
thats why they are called Canadian slang.
Quix as a canadian, he doesn't sound very canadian to me....until he breaks out hockey talk
I’m Canadian. I’ve heard most of these but I didn’t realize a few of them are only Canadian.
The States don't have any of them, except in some 'pop'.
Not a few, nearly all of them are exclusively Canadian, other than pop.
The Canadian tradition of measuring distance by "beer"...I love my country
Many, many Canadians don't use the term "Clicks" to indicate distance; they use the term hours or minutes. Time is easier to grasp than linear distance.
If you are referring to clicks, it is the numbers turning on the speedometer, to show mileage.
@@aloisius4188 Klicks is a military term and I think the US also says it. Most Canadians just say Kilometres.
I don't know how I can be so entertained by just Will Arnett explaining Canadian Slang
Will is gold in anything he does
Huh, I wasn't aware kerfuffle was considered a Canadian thing. It's not used very frequently, but people in the states do use the word.
It's British origin so any English speaking country will have it in their lexicon.
We certainly use it in Australia
I used to say Chesterfield as a child, and my father still calls it that.
gpan62 common in the states to hear “Davenport” for a sofa
Yes, I find the term a bit dated. Couch and sofa more common now.
@@kenkur27 "Die couch" and "das sofa" are common in Germany.
Chesterfield is even bigger in Newfoundland. :p
It's an OLD term and not very much in common use any more.
I adore that as the video went on his accent was more and more evident; like he was relaxing a bit.
He does this so well.
Born and raised in canada but i still expected not to know most of them. Instead i found my self surprised at how many of these things are apparently Canadian and just not said in America. Like yall really dont call them two-fours?
_ SassySaucyxx _ nope just call them a six pack
Farrakhan Wolcott but a two four isnt a six back. Two four got 24 beers
_ SassySaucyxx _ oh well that's is called a case of beer. I wasn't sure if the two four ment 2 plus 4 or 2 times four. Thanks for clarifying. If you don't mind can you explain the Newfie joke
Farrakhan Wolcott so in Canada we have these candies that are shaped like gold coins, have gold foil wrappers and are chocolate on the inside (they might not just be a Canadian thing, I don't know). The joke is that when the loonies were introduced in Canada newfies were so dumb they thought that they were chocolate treats so they were all breaking their teeth trying to eat them. Newfies are people who live in Newfoundland, and are stereotypical hosers.
Valerie Craig thanks
Use all of these in Manitoba! Still never heard someone seriously use the word hoser though
This video would be VERY different if it were done by an east-coaster. The maritimes still has so many of the OLD slang words in their vocab since this side of the country isn't americanizing or growing as fast as the other side.
"The Six" actually refers to the six different boroughs that make up Toronto, not the area code lol. Originally it was Etobicoke, Scarborough, North York, East York, Toronto, and York.
