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.

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 😢
“Thank you Lord, Mama use to pray for me” and showed up for me .. the level of success that he has achieved despite the obstacles. As a Jamaican, I cannot even begin to describe the odds that were against him.. ❤🙏🏽
I live in Australia. I would love to meet Randy, but not much show of that happening. The Guess Who and BTO were the biggest things in my life musically for so many years, and even now, I obsess with The Guess Who's music. Very weird how that happens, but the most delightful thing.
Randy spoke about putting the violin down after hearing Elvis Pressley, which mirrors me a little in that I started to learn the recorder at age 6 and graduated onto the clarinet, but at the age of 13 I got into pop and rock after years of classical music (which I still love). The beautiful irony is that the song that made my mind up was You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet and partly (along with Pink Floyd in Paris in 1994) made me want to play guitar, which I do to this day. PF are my main listen, but I will always, aways listen to anything Randy is or has been involved in, and would similarly be humbled if I ever got the chance to meet him.
Ms. Nutt is and has been an incredibly busy human. I feel I’m misusing my time just watching this video. Fascinating that we have been brainwashed by the Remembrance Day “never again “ messaging and the industry use of the term “Defence “ industry. We sell and ship “defence “ hardware with the hope we don’t see it being used on the news. Thank you both for the interview.
why free market needs to be backstopped
The Olympic Sports Judging would be interesting to be investigated to see if fair, or the U.S. Supreme Court, to see if they are still fair. So many things are corrupt now, it’s hard to be sure about anything. Very interesting interview. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Excellent interview of one of the most inspiring pianists nowdays.
First time ever for myself and history in the making seeing Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings reunite and perform at Winnipeg Flood Relief concert, that was a magical musical event in Winnipeg.
This criminal needs to go to jail now!
What a beautiful man....❤
Wes Hall blessings to you. This interview was excellent, thank you both.
He is one of a kind. Great person through and through
When is the album written during covid going to be released?
As a Canadian who has lived my life so far in Ontario, I am immensely proud of the statement made by the people of Manitoba. Well done folks very well done. Mr. Kinew I wish you all the success in your job. Someday you can lead this country!
Randy also has the distinction of having Elvis take TCB and using it as his logo on his neck chains, his sun glasses.
Thank you so much for this! It's nice to see one of the world's best pianists getting more attention
I just LOVE and adore this lady! ❤ Such an exceptional pianist! I could listen to her all day! Looking forward to going to her next recital here in the Netherlands!
The disruption to a community of trees when a tornado comes through, makes you think. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
Dr. Hayhoe, please see if you can get on more conservative media shows. People like Megyn Kelly and her audience really need to hear your comments about how this unfairly affects the poor. It's so upsetting how so many Americans are knowingly buying fuel inefficient vehicles and burning gas as if it's a God given right to harm the poor. God helps us all.
I've seen Michael 6 times in person. He isn't just a singer he is an amazing entertainer. I'm thrilled he will be a coach on The Voice next season. I'll start watching again.
Michael is the best!!
Great interview love his music. I've never seen him in person tickets are ways to much. But soon when he comes back to Texas.
It calmed my nervous system to listen to such a wise, coherent, loving human being. One could call her the RBG of Canada but even that doesn’t quite do her justice!
I enjoyed this so much!
This interview is beautifully inspirational, touching and brilliant, as is Dr. Mak. We’re all so fortunate Dr. Mak returned to Canada after just one day.
Tak Mak is a scientific force of nature. Truly an inspired and inspirational biomedical leader who has changed the face of cancer research! Great interview. Tireless, brilliant, passionate. Tak is the 8th Wonder of the World!!!
The 8th wonder of the world? Are you saying Mak is to take the place of the 8th wonder of the world, ahead of scientists such as Einstein and Newton? That's a big call.
Wonderful interview, thank you both. Doctor Mak , thank you for your amazing work. You are a gift.
Randy you can keep my interest
Lovely conversation. The tone was so Canadian!
Great interview, thank you both. Lesson, don’t name things after politicians.
Habitat 67, I was 8 years old when I first saw Habitat 67 at Expo 67, being from a little village in Ontario I could not believe what I was seeing, it was extraordinary and still is. Habitat 67 has stood the test of time, when a unit comes up for sale which is rare I spend imagining how amazing it would be to live there. Mr. Safdie, Thanks for sharing your gift.
Apologies, I didn’t know Ms. Penny, great interview, I’m better for having seen this. Thank you.
Ok Burton says it started in Brampton, Randy says Kitchener...now which one is it?
