We Are Canadian and Funny

I don't do the Friday Funnies meme, but this is Friday, and these are funny . . . although also serious in a way. Note: if you are tired of political trauma, these are pretty well just fun although it is a bit of a message, especially in the second video. It's not hard to take, however.

More than a decade ago, there was a fun I Am Canadian commercial for Molson Canadian beer. It was carried off in the form of a rant, and was greatly loved. It's just over  minute long.

In these troubled times, the guy, Jack, is back with with a We Are Canadian rant. This time it is not a commercial, and there is a message, but it is mostly fun. (length 1' 42")

I am posting the auto generated transcript below. I looked for the original script but couldn't find a copy.

hey I I know it's in our nature to uh

cut a guy some slack give him the

benefit of the doubt like maybe he was

confused or just joking or just maybe

really needed a double

double but this isn't that guy these

aren't those people and those are not

the Rockies they make a lot of mistakes

they mistake our modesty for meekness

our kindness for consent our nation for

another star on their flag and our love

of a hot cheesy poutine with their love

of a hot cheesy Putin they think they

can bully us threaten us and push us

around but they do not know us that

artificially drawn line they keep

talking about not artificial and it's

not on a map it's right here this is the

land that ter ran the land the gourd

sang about this is the birthplace of

peanut butter and ketchup chips and yoga

pants it is the land of Universal Health

Care and the bench clearing brawl of

innovation and optimism and getting her

done this is the land of the Peacekeeper

and the shawinigan handshake are we

perfect no but we are not the 51st

anything we are the first to unite in

the crisis the first to build Bridges

not walls and the first to stand on

guard for the my name is Jeff and we are

Canadian thank you
