This Q&A took a turn for the worst.
Fans at a comedy show in Canada think the United States should take Trudeau off their hands. However, do they really want Donald Trump instead? Perhaps they should keep their prime minister rather than taking on the current US president.

@@cjsherrick3034 nuh uhh... My side's better.
Cj Sherrick Spoiled children. The perfect way to describe it! I feel like we are in just one big middle school!
Great Throw Back to #BillHick's #HisaReader! You the man & Love ya Work. Shout out from Australia #Hotstepper!
You have now toured our version of "southern States" lol All the intelligent ones from there escaped to BC and Ontario lol
I meant to ask you in richmond but was too tired to stick around with the drive back to maryland, but, where do you get your suits?
Yea. That is about how every single political conversation in Alberta goes.
And that's basically the entire depth of the political opposition to Trudeau, at least from the right. "FUCK TRUDEAU I'M RIGHT CAUSE I'M LOUD!!!"
And I say that as someone who goddamn hates Trudeau, but from the other side and therefore for, y'know, legitimate, rational, explainable reasons.
I love how it seemed like the audience was against you about Trudeau, but then you got the audience to stick with you while still totally standing your ground on disagreeing with them. That was something to behold.
I mean the heckler helped, but still.
Steve as a resident of Alberta.. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO.. you have no idea.. thank you for being you and for being utterly fucking hilarious.
"Do you know how voting works?" Steve is the GOAT
Do you? It's not the same in Canada.
@@dostthouevenlogicbrethren1739 Does the person with the least votes win in Canada?
@@dandotvid You politely teught the wise.ss 😂
The anti-trudeau guy was on the same IQ level😂
We need tests before people vote and maybe even tests before people go out in public to watch things like comedy shows.
Do you know how the Canadian FPTP voting system works?
If only, sadly, we have systems that think the average uneducated moron should have a say. Sounds okay on paper but as we see...
@@dostthouevenlogicbrethren1739 Idk what the FPTP thing is, but I know that over 80% of people voting have no fucking clue about what's best for Canada or their own province, what their province needs from the federal government, and what the federal government should focus on first.
That was Alberta personified
Pretty much every province that isn't Ontario or Quebec personified. Liberals and PC supporters in every province!
Totally.
@@tfcrow4838 Not even. Quebec unanimously voted for the Bloc Quebecois party, the former Separtiste Party. And outside of Toronto and Thunder Bay, Ontario was entirely blue and orange. Trudeau won because of Toronto, and nothing more.
The most intense instances of Steve raising his voice is when he's dealing with political idiots
It scares me that this guy is voting on Wednesday.
Wednesday?
@@MercTelmos :hopefully he does vote on Wednesday.
@@MercTelmos Wednesday is election day in Canada. He's referring to the heckler, not to me.
Today, Monday is Election Day
@@davemcintyre3069: election day is Wednesday, but only for the heckler.
As a Progressive living in Central Alberta, it has far more RWNJs than Edmonton, thank you! I wish I had your wit, my way if dealing with these idiots has been to stop socializing, I suck at keeping my mouth shut and would most likely get the shit kicked out of me!
When you said this guy is a reader it made me think of Bill Hicks
Came to see if someone said this
2:51 Weirdly enough, Scheer did get slightly more votes than Trudeau (it was like 34% to 33%) but Trudeau got more seats, so for once the “electoral college” thing (or our Canadian equivalent) actually worked in our favour
Weirder, Scheer had more votes across the nation too. Trudeau won because he took Toronto. Our "elector college thing" here is why so many Canadians are pissed. Don't get me wrong, this guy was being an ass...but there is a reason so many westerners are frustrated. The same reason Quebec unanimously voted for the separtist party, the Bloc Quebecois. Western Canada has had no voice since confederation. The Harper government at least made efforts to give independence to provinces, particularly Quebec. Trudeau trying to nationalize everything again is taking away our independence. Toronto doesn't know what's best for Edmonton, no matter how much they think they do. They shouldn't decide our fate. Period.
Imagine if Vancouver got to determine everything about your governance...and they undermined your economy, your businesses, and shipped your taxes to services there. How would you feel? How would you feel knowing that there was nothing you could do, because none of your votes count anyway?
felicity4711 "worked in our favour"? Whose favour? Not the tax payers that's forsure
You’re always so fast on your feet; as an Aussie I cackled at the quick Pauline Hanson bit. Your heckler clips are always comedy gold, I don’t know why people keep interrupting your shows.
Snowflake
Wooh! Don't piss the man off. lol. You're great, Steve
As someone from edmonton this unfortunately is Alberta in a nutshell
My apologies 44 years of austerity with the cons and lack of education funding
confession. I starting to listening to Failing Forward on Spotify at work 3 days ago. I'm now all caught up, and i head the suicide expert one twice.
I swear your eyes started glowing red at 2:15 😆 That look has “Murder!” written all over it! 😆
Thoroughly entertaining video. Its so weird how 1 Province over from me is a place where theres a notable portion of them that want to be Canadian, but only if its THEIR Canada, and will separate from Canada to be "non-Canada Canada'. I expect it from portions of Quebec, but out here in the West, never thought that I'd see it.
Also, kudos on sticking to your boycott.
That heckler is about 90% of people who troll online
You are seriously amazing and so quick with these comments to hecklers. It's so great and hilarious to watch every single time. Much respect haha.
It's both wonderful and terrifying that everybody has the right to vote.

That was a more intense intro than I was expecting....and my volume was pretty high.....
Wait until you see ''Florida Man Heckler Owned''.
Steve lookin sharp as F in that suit! Get it bro!
looking forward to the Portland clip to be posted!!
You’re the boss! Come to Houston soon, I check the website frequently
I just bought tickets to your Warsaw show :D
Damn wish he came to other cities in Poland
I can’t wait for the Portland clip!! 😂🤣
These things are great to watch great comedian would be awesome to catch a show sometime great stuff steve enjoy the videos I watch them all the time
What a treat to see a bit on Canadian politics.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!
That Pauline Hansen joke did me in (Australian here). Take her. Take her PLEASE.
Steve, you look great in a suit. And I say that with what George Costanza once referred to as a "reputation of staunch heterosexuality..."
Dude you are good 👏👏🤦♂️
Oh man I can't wait to see that Portland clip!
Me too! Coming soon!!
Alberta and BC are scary places, and I’m from Ontario.
As an Aussie, I'd rather trump and trudeau over Pauline! But I'd also still rather neither! Hahaha
This is my go to guy for RUclips comedy, also Andrew Schultz, and Jim Gaffigahn
Check out Theo Von
Yeah Theo he's definitely another great comedian, I obviously didn't name all of my favorite comedians because I would've had to put Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, Ralphy Mae rip and a long list of others that changed the game every time they performed.
@@brentmichael4099 for sure man. there's luckily a ton of quality comics out right now amidst shitty ones
1 minute in and damn!! Go Steve!!! 🤘
Well done. Applause!
For clarity, as a matter of fact, Scheer did get more votes than Trudeau.
And more seats across Canada. Odd how people think that Toronto voting for the Liberals means Canada elected Trudeau....
I was actually curious about his dislike for Harper. Mostly because I was pleasantly surprised that he knew who he was, given that most global media only cared about our election last time because they wanted to talk about Trudeau's looks and not his politics.
I disliked Harper because he was (seemed) emotionless, didn’t really care about the Canadian identity, etc. That being said he was a great prime minister... he led us out of the recession (although Canada was already pretty strong at the point), and kept us going. He was just dry and boring, and didn’t try anything - no innovation. My opinion seems to be similar to most people in my generation (
Put that emdontonian in his place much love from calgary steve !!!
@@OrbisAetherum it was a joke not a dick dont take it so hard
@@OrbisAetherum okay no I didn't realize what I kid I kid meant now I do
As an aussie I love you
i would literally get a plane ticket to edmonton if i had the opportunity to be in this room while this happened. SO good.
It's a funny clip and I enjoyed it. So you know, Canadians never vote for a Prime Minister. What follows is a quick education about Canadian politics. It might be useful to you for future material. Then again, it may be just a boring political read.
Unlike the U.S., the position of Prime Minister is absent from our constitution. Prime Minister is simply a position filled by the leader of the party that wins a majority of the seats in parliament. The leader of the party winning a majority of the seats in parliament is invited to form a government by the Governor General. Technically, that party could choose any member to Prime Minister. It's unlikely any party will win a majority of seats in parliament in the 2019 election. In this case, the Liberals are given an opportunity to form a coalition government because they were the last party to hold a majority of seats.
It's kind of boring, I know, but Canadians never vote for a Prime Minister. We only vote for our local Member of Parliament. The party that forms a government is chosen based on winning a majority of seats in parliament or by being the last party to have held a majority of seats. The leader of the party usually becomes the Prime Minister, but there is no legal requirement for that to happen. Please accept my apology if this turned out to be a boring political read.
Something that needs to be taught to the majority of Canadian voters these days. Seems fewer and fewer understand this.
please man, come to Portugal: I love you!
Just watched this video and saw at the end that you were coming to Glasgow for your tour. Got really excited, checked when you were coming and saw it was 5 fuckin days ago. Devastated because I've been bombed with uni work and I haven't really had a chance to watch your videos lately meaning I never saw you talking about your tour. Hope you come again so I can catch you next time.
a girl behind me at the U of Lethbridge Library is wearing an AIR CANADA "WE DELIVER" Daily Flights to Canada and the USA. Bahahaha Too Funny.
I always love when Steve slaps down hecklers. But he rarely gets back to the point he was trying to make in these clips. It's disappointing. Can't people shut up and let him finish his damn thought!
Some people are afraid of what they don't understand. In this case, thoughts.
Thank you so much for this 🇨🇦 lmao
Trudeau the Klaus Schwab puppet. But won't get into. I still love your videos and your very entertaining to listen to either way🤣👍
"Northern Kansas"
Trudeau deserves no praise
Any chance you will be coming back to Dublin? You are my favorite comic...please come back
I fucking love you for all of this and more 💯👏
I LOVE YOUR WORK!
Even though we differ in politics. Because that's how we grow, debating everything and hearing the other side.
Keep up your work can't wait for you to get back on the road
I'm interested in hearing his opinion on some "leaders" after the big "C". ^^
That guy got decimated.
They always do.
How voting works in Canada:
If you can convince *25%* of eligible voters, properly distributed across the country, to vote for you(r party), you are likely to be rewarded with (nearly) absolute legislative and executive authority.
Thanks, Trudeau! /s
Nope. You are incorrect. How voting works in Canada:
If you convince a majority of people in Toronto to vote for you, the rest of Canada can go fuck themselves, because Ontario holds 35% of the House of Commons seats, with the majority representing the GTA. And that's how Trudeau got elected. Nearly all provinces except the maritimes voted CPC or NDP (Bloc Quebecois in Quebec). Even Ontario was mostly blue...except one dot in the midst of a sea of blue: Toronto.
Timely upload, Steve!
I cannot wait for covid to chill ( get vaccinated people) so I can go see him live and hope someone says something stupid!! He would be amazing live!!
That was funny as hell 😂😂😂
We do need a test. Hell, ask ocasio-Cortez the 3 branches of government. And she's in office
LEMME FUCKIN FINISH!!!
omg pauline hanson tooo fuckin funny lmao
2:07 - you want some popcorn?
Come to St. Louis. I only recently discovered your channel, and you're very funny Steve!
Heads up, my St. Louis tickets are on sale now if you haven’t gotten them yet. Grab tickets at SteveHofstetter.com and see you there!
He said 'you guys', obviously he must mean me and my friends who are currently present! >:v
Gotta love people like that. (#sarcasm)
U say in jest, but I do believe there should be a test proving people know what they are voting for. I've had too many conversations with people who have no idea why they vote the way they do and they are usually the loudest and angriest of the bunch and just as with religion, I enjoy seeing them ramble incoherently just like ur hecklers do.
Ha! Pauline Hanson.
I havent been to Canada since I was three and yet I know the two providences want to secede . Hard they not called back Winfield Scott from his invation of Canada during the War of 1812, Canadians could have had trump as their leader
Trudeau? Intellectual....? Hahahahahahahhahahahahaha
Come to Charleston SC! We aren't all Hicks!
I will never understand why the topic of politics escalates to yelling so quickly. Why can't people just exchange arguments, let the other one finish, think about their point of view and reply in a respectful manner? From my personal experience, yelling at someone or calling him stupid will not change his opinion. But listening, repeating his view, understanding him (which is diferent to "agreeing"!) and then calmly showing his an alternative argument, that he probably hasn't seen before, these things MIGHT change his opinion.
People out here are pissed right now. And rightfully so. Our political system in Canada gives 0 say to the west. We literally have no say in our governance. We elect memebers of parliament to represent us in our ridings. 36% of those ridings are in the province of Ontario alone. Of them, nearly all are the Toronto area. Almost all of Canada voted against Trudeau in this last election, except the maritimes and Toronto.
And understanding how our system affects us is important too. We pay equalization payments to the federal government, who then divvy them up between the provinces. Those who produce a shortfall in government spending, get back more. As Quebec and Ontario spend the most on social services, they take more. We get nothing back from what we give. In other words, our tax dollars are going to pay for services in Ontario and Quebec, so they can fund them....while the federal government uses tax dollars to subsidize their companies to help their economy, and chokes out ours. Trudeau claimed the whole SNC Lavalin scandal was to protect 9000 jobs in Quebec (And even that was a lie. It was to protect the votes. The jobs wouldn't have gone away, they just would have left the company in Trudeau's riding)...yet some 200,000 people are unemployed in Alberta due to his policies. And still we are expected to pay for their services, with no means of standing up for ourselves. If 100% of western Canada voted for the conservatives (which nearly happened, save half of BC and Manitoba), we still would have Trudeau as our PM. The PM can get elected with less than half the votes of the opposition party. That's how flawed our system is, and how much it undermines the majority of the country.
Don't get me wrong, this guy has no right to take out his frustration on a comedian...who probably also shouldn't have taken his out on him. But it's understandable why he is so upset.
Hey Steve - technically, Canadians didn't elect Trudeau. No one in Edmonton, technically, voted for Trudeau. Only people living in the electoral district of Papineau voted for Trudeau. His party just won the most seats, which is how Trudeau ended being appointed as Prime Minister.
*In Edmonton*

@@grantbean2631 That was one of the dumbest trades in the past 20 fuckin' years. 😂
You sure do get heckled a lot.
Niiiice, got'em.
Parliamentary government, do the people even elect the prime minister?
Not really but sort of. The people elect members of parliament and the party that controls parliament chooses the prime minister so essentially if the Liberal Party gets a majority of the vote Trudeau who leads the party will remain prime minister and if the Conservative Party ends up with a majority of the vote then Scheer who is the leader of that party will become prime minister. So they don't directly vote for the prime minister but their votes for parliament do decide who the prime minister will be.
Nope. Not even slightly.
@@Eric_8724 The liberals didn't get the majority of the vote. And it doesn't matter if they get the majority of seats either. If Andrew Scheer had won the most seats, Trudeau still would have been Prime Minister. He has to resign and hand power down to Scheer. You think he would have? After SNC Lavalin, the Mark Norman scandal...the refusal to hold himself to the same standard as other lesser politicians guilty of blackface, and repeat ethics violations?
The only way Scheer would have been able to guarantee removing Trudeau is if the conservatives won the majority of seats to form a majority government. Otherwise, Trudeau would have been able to hold power and oust the elected government. Doubt it would happen? It did twice last year in the provincial elections. BC's premiere was not the one elected with the most seats. He formed a coalition with the other parties to take it from the party elected by the people.
We are not a democracy...and we have not equal representation. No matter how the west votes, our members of parliament cannot form a majority or representation. Ontario alone holds more seats than all of western Canada. 100% of the people in Canada west of Ontario could have voted Conservative, and Trudeau still would retain power over us. Our votes do not count. We have no democracy here.
Damn that drunk. I wanted to hear what he was going to say about Harper.
Ahh yes, Alberta, where every month is truck month.

First rule of politics: He who yells and interrupts is always right.

you forgot quebec they want to split from canada also. lol
That's old news, Quebec seperatism is done. Instead it's just more sovereignty within Canadian federalism.
2:15 if looks could kill Chuck Norris would be ashes
this guy is probably running to the states today lmao!

we dont elect the prime minister, we vote for a party and the leader of that party is the prime minister
You came to Edmonton? Damn I missed it

I mean, i found the test joke funny but like its also somewhat offensive cuz like thats the same shit that the south did to stop poc from voting
i had no idea english speaking provinces of canada were trying to secede.
Yes. The West has been pissed for years. The slogan used to be "We want in", as in we want representation in Ottawa. Since Trudeau has undermined us more, it's changed to "We want out". National unity has never been this low since 1980, when his father was in. And that says a lot, given Quebec took it to a vote to separate in 1994.
@@dostthouevenlogicbrethren1739 what's the big issue?
@@tomitstube Imagine if you had no vote, and your federal government was taking your taxes to pay for other states. How would you feel? 100% of the votes out west do not count in our election.
You're the Giannis Antetokounmpo of comedians.
You got votes mixed up with seats.
This was the funniest shit Ive seen in a while.
I find it questionable that some one in your line of work would support a politician that has been instrumental in the restriction of people's free speech. All it takes is for one joke to offend one person and then you are facing criminal charges. Not exactly what I would call good for comedians, what do you think?
I’m more left than right and I still think Trudeau is kinda been a bad PM. I agree with a lot of his legislation but not most of everything he did.
But I wouldn’t bring that up at a comedy show :/
Just Google these two Phrases "Please explain" and "I don't like it"
Aww, why'd you have to bring Kansas into it? What did we ever do to you?
You had that tornado that opened up a portal into another dimension and things have been going downhill ever since.

Sorry, Kansas, this is all on you.
Well, there was Brownback, but I'm from Florida and our state has pefected voting stupid, so I don't hold shitty representatives that against sane voters. Or at least I try not to.
