So many Canadians have made, and are making, their mark on the world stage in every sector of daily life. And while their names may be known to millions, their Canadian heritage may not. It's time for Canadians, Americans, and the world to understand what makes successful Canadians the people they've become, and what their success means to all of us. Canada Files is a weekly, half-hour interview program hosted by veteran Toronto broadcaster Jim Deeks.

M. Chretien, there is an opening for PM now. Canada needs you! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Best Prime Minister of Canada.
Viva Canada
Your records stand,sorry& My condolences on the passing of Your good Wife & Companion for Life Aline. …David DOZOIS MtL
He was a good PM. Paul Martin and he were a good team and they could see that fiscal prudence would be good for Canada....and sadly those following threw it all away and here we are.
Well said.
A great Canadian PM, wish he could train and guide our next PM!
The official host of "Rick Mercer Report" on CBC. : )
It’s criminal that neither Randy as a solo artist or with BTO or the Guess Who isn’t in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. And then you have tripe like Nirvana that is. Shameful!
За америкен вуман Ренди надо поставить памятник
Randy looks GREAT.
You’re so amazing and you’re really can sing anything. You got a great voice. If you could sing all the songs of Dean Martin you will be amazing and you will on top of the whole world Michael . Give its ago please trust me you will be so happy and another people going to be over the moon 😮❤
It was a great interview.. i love his songs wishing my family could watch his concert❤
Awesome!!!!❤❤
The only Canadian thing is his roots. What was the title of the last Canadian movie directed by Cameron nad when was it released?
Great interview, also all the (old) photos. Angela is an amazing pianist but also a very nice and social person, she always meets her audience after a concert, signs CDs and so on, very sweet.
All the Best from your Good Friend Mark From Maple 🍁 Grove Mn USA ❤
I am always so thrilled when another book in the series comes out. It’s like coming home. Thank you Louise for each of the books i. This series.
I could listen to James talk all day. Pretty fascinating man and quite the inspiration
Ted is a gem. Whatever, he probably drives a German car. Thanks for posting. 🇨🇦
The "fringe" simpletons want to get rid of facts.
💕🪷💕 always #1
Watch a late in life film of him performing, at the end of any song while the crowd applauds you can see his eyes well up with tears! Incredible human.
Haven't seen her in decades. I was at the North American premiere of Howard's LotR Symphony in 2004 at Place-des-Arts. LotR is his Magnum Opus.
Thank you both for this very fine interview. I have been following Wab's career, from his 8th Fire days. I've felt, since a young age, that we cannot move forward as a country until we grapple with the deep injustice embedded in our foundation. But we can, and we do, move forward, and with leaders like Wab Kinew we will continue on this path together. While our current political scene fills me with despair and I honestly feel I have no-one to vote for anymore (I'm not in Manitoba!), Wab inspires me and gives me hope. We need leaders who truly do love our country, with all its faults and gifts, and have a vision for our future together.
Lefty Clowns video.
Yes, it sounds like Gordon was a childhood musical prodigy. He was born and driven to do what he did. He never moved from Canada because he realized how important family was to him…what an endearing man.
I was really impressed with Randy when I learned he didnt take drugs when I was a teen ager.
Randy Bachman deserves all the attention and admiration he deserves. He really is the John Lennon of Canada. Keep rocking my friend. I grew old along side you listening to your music. Canadians need to get behind their great rockers, especially the greats like Randy Bachman.
Please interview the Astronomer Jayanne English recently retired from the U of Manitoba. She was the first astronomer to hold a Fine Art Degree and Astrophysics Phd and was part of the pioneering Hubble Telescope Imaging Team at Nasa. She's Canadian and received the Order of Canada last year.
James Cameron delivered his own children during his wife’s child birth. What can’t this man do?
MARK CARNEY IS EDUCATED WITH IMPECCABLE QUALIFICATIONS. IN TIMES LIKE THESE WE NEED PEOPLE WHO CAN THINK AND SOLVE THE PROBLEMS OF TODAY. THE CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE THAT ANGER AND HATRED IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO IN CANADA. THESE PROBLEMS ARE GOING ON EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD. FRANKLY I AM SICK AND TIRED OF ALL THE ANGER AND HATRED BY THE CONSERVATIVES. WHERE ARE YOUR SOLUTIONS ? WHAT ARE YOUR ANSWERS ? MARK CARNEY IS JUST WHAT CANADA NEEDS TODAY. HE WILL DO A GREAT JOB.
Randy diffintly belong in the Hall of fame
I have to thank my older neighbor Walter who was playing Not Fragile in his parents basement on a killer stereo, I was 15 and have been hooked ever since! Thanks Randy!(And Walter)
What an inspirational journey. I was so fortunate that my sister in law, who is more a sister loving friend, introduced me to Louise Penny’s Gamache mystery magnifique in 2018. At that time I had many treasures to read. My favorite way to experience is through audible. This in turn provided a safe community for me. So ever grateful to my sister loving friend and these books, and Louise Penny and her monthly newsletter 🎉❤🎉 I also loved the first movie and the tv series. They didn’t take away from her rich storytelling.
Randy..you lucky old soul. Heh. Viet Nam "War" back in 1968 got me and another member out of tune. Things were falling together too with band ,S.O.S. ,in Indiana. What an amazing life you have had. I am 75. Peace and Thanks for the lifetime of rockers!
Michael💙🎵 Su voz, musica, ..... Un regalo de Dios que nos da la vida. Muuuua 💙💙💙
Not being in the rock and roll hall of fame is criminal for either band. I live in SC. I’m going to Savannah GA to see his guitar collection. I love Canada. I’ve been there a dozen or more times. I don’t like Trudeau.
22:50 ''Not in Rock n' Roll Hall of fame'', who needs it, certainly not Randy, he's way above all that. They would have to throw out dozens of 'who cares' artists to make room for Randy's talents and accomplishments, and contributions to classic rock.
Taking care of business,what a story. Randy is just so many stories as a fantastic musician. 👍
Good evening my friend I every seen this on the TV to
Michael💙🎵 Just amazing. Love you 💙🎵💙
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How can one man be so based?
He needs to not slam Alberta and our resources.
Very interesting, on lots of levels. Sharing with my daughter-in-law (first nations), several relatives, and a couple neighbors. Looking forward to the day when we have Truth and Reconciliation Commissions in the USA. A big Thank You to the producers, and to our local PBS station who broadcast this show!
Awesome interview - inspiring!
Great Man Jean Chretien.. thanks for the interview. I wish that you had asked him what he think of Canada NOW and some of the radical changes taking place culturally.. i suspect he might be a bit disturbed by that.
Mr. Chrétien, Canadian legend, thank you for everything you’ve done for the rest of us. Great interview, wishing you good health and happiness.
Being Canadian means we are an example to the world .. but we need to fight to maintain that .. 🙏🏽❤️
I cried with George Floyd.. because I was facing silent racism at the time while working in healthcare downtown, and I just felt defeated ..
Ohh the polite racism gets you… the insincerity and surface relationships just wears you done .. it’s already hard enough to navigate as an immigrant.. you work hard and you constantly face these barriers 😢
