Definitely agree, one time saw a car catch fire outside a tim's because they got an oil change at crappy tire and forgot to put the new oil in the engine 0/10
the prices of tires there are also horrible, literally every other place i went to gave me a better price for better tires with a longer better warranty
@@XanMan_05 But on the other hand, I saw a proper ute in a parking lot in Winnipeg and I had to photograph it because I'm never seeing one of them again.
Man, everyone loves Canada tbh. I'm French-American and even I popped when he mentioned poutine. So many drunken college nights taking an Uber to the border and getting Frenchy's at 1am... beautiful country
As a Canadian, I KNOW WHERE YOU WERE! Toy Traders is an amazing store, and I am saddened that I was within 30 minutes of most of the places you showed in that video. Thanks for visiting wonderful scenic Canada! Do come again to review the Hudson's Bay next time!
My favourite Crappy Tire (oops, I mean Canadian Tire) story is where my Bro-in-law said he was going CT to get new tires for their car. She seriously asked him: "They sell tires there?" I had the same reaction when I went to Oz. I loved all the different vehicles. Especially the Ute's (Holden, etc) Way more practical than full size pick ups.
As a Canadian, I am here to formally welcome DankPods to Canada. Canadian Tire is a rite of passage for every single Canadian. Also, I had some Australian family who came over and were completely mystified by snow, so you’re not alone edit: Since a lot of Canadians are viewing and commenting on this, I would like to know how much Canadian Tire Cash you guys have in total, rotting in nooks and crannies around your house. Personally, I have 45 cents of precious precious Canadian Tire Dough.
To me as a German it is mind boggling hearing someone saying that he has never seen snow. Wow. I know there are many regions in the world were it´s never cold but still... wow
Canadian here that has watched quit a few immigrants experience snow for the first time. A snowball fight with Nigerian neighbours is one of my finest memories. Taught the kids snowangels and did the whole "let's make a snowman but really we will just roll up a huge snow boulder then break it up and throw it at each other" thing. Then we made a snowman. Tobogganing the next week. Good times.
@@hhiippiittyy Lol had some relatives move here a few years back. Snow was definitely different lmfao. Uncle had a small economy grocery getter before he moved, but then instantly bought an SUV after experiencing 2022's winter here in Vancouver. Shit was like the apocalypse lol. Busses slid off everywhere. The guy wouldv been stuck at the bus stop untill 2am if our car didnt have some snow mode
Glad you enjoyed Canada! Just remember never to ask those idiots at Canadian Tire to fix your car. It's like bringing your laptop to a vet to get it fixed.
I can vouch for this when I was in high school back in 99 I worked there as an installer doing tire and oil changes, I never had a drivers license and they would toss me peoples keys and send me out to drive customers cars in...... needless to say I backed one through the garage door lol.. It was during a cold Canadian winter and i just finished putting winter tires on a car and I opened the door in my bay to back out and I hopped in the car and a mechanic was walking by and thought I just pulled in and was cold so he dropped the door and I backed right into it.
@@some_tiny_dragon7411Nah it’s more like: « There’s like 10 people on my street that have this exact F-150 in their driveway » and « I’ve never seen someone so focussed on snow » lmao
I've visited Australia back in 2018. After my 16 hour flight to Hong Kong in 2017, I've learned that I can comfortably handle long airplane trips, so my 14 hours to Australia via Qantas went very well. The trip to Australia was a bit of a disappointment. None of your animals tried to kill me! 😁
As a Canadian, some info: the Tim Horton's coffee you drank wasn't the real Tim Horton's coffee. They switched bean distributors after being bought out by Burger King. The Tim Horton's coffee I know and love is now found at Canadian McDonald's restaurants because they signed a contract with Timmy's old bean distributors lmao
Yeah, plus if you want some good coffee you have to buy the sweet stuff, they don’t have good real coffee like espresso and stuff but they have some pretty good Frappuccino’s and stuff
@@DollyBoy_1923 no its as bad as before but takes triple the time to get your order but i think its a generation issue genxers and their kids is the worst ever, probably not bk fault
One thing you're gonna learn here Wade, is that Canadians REALLY love when people talk about Canada. Like the younger brother who doesn't get as much attention
As a canadian, you should never expect timmies coffee to be anything more than "tolerable" Heck half of us for breakfast had a dart and a large double double
As a Canadian I never thought much about this until recently, but I’ve come to conclude that Canadian tire is more like Canada’s garage or shed… anything you might find there is generally related to something you might store in your garage or shed.. a mini fridge? Yep that’s for beer, canoes, bikes, big old storage bins, gardening tools, regular tools, spare lightbulbs, stuff for house repair, paint, cleaning products, buckets, camping shit, hockey shit… you name it. If it goes in the shed or garage than you can find it at Canadian tire. Also most people tell you not to bring your car to their garage but if you’re in a small town then the opposite might be true! It depends on the crappy tire.
I’m an American and I had to design a conveyor system for Canadian Tire once. I was so confused when they mentioned all the stuff other than tires they were looking to convey. It all makes sense now…
Especially southeast asia and latam countries, with those weirdly proportioned MPVs which are slightly raised for both rough dirt roads and smooth pavement
Like I visit Mexico sometimes for my family, and when we go to the city, I see very small almost kei car sized cars, I remember one of them was called the hyundai aris, and they had a bunch of ford ka's, and a bunch of renault mini ute's lol, I loved it
Thank you for uploading man, my dad has recently vanished from their home with no explanation. I've been up the entire time and you made me chuckle for the first time in a stress filled environment. I appreciate you so much man
@@chinmin1942 in alberta it is very dry and goes to the low 30s sometimes (not like texas heat where you get heatstroke by thinking about going outside but still pretty hot)
Pikachu man on a motorcycle is now famous. Canadian icon on par with a gas station attached to a Café in the middle of Saskatchewan. And that actually isn't a joke, Corner Gas was a comedy show that literally had 2 *_sitting Prime Ministers_* make cameos making fun of themselves.
Same here lol As soon as I saw the Willow video store i lost it lol I cant believe he came here out of all the other cities. If only I knew he was coming here I would've called off work to meet him
Exact same story here man. I recognized that street by Willow Video instantly, love going there. Would have been amazing to meet him in person but having privacy is cool too so can't say I blame him.
I am Canadian and this video is hilarious, I'm going to watch it whenever i need cheering up, my favourite part is the implication that you flew 14 hours just to visit Canadian Tire 😂
As a canadian, its so cool to see people talking about my country and seeing everything i see everyday. Its like looking at your home on google maps, its just cool.
That’s such a great way to put it. For Father’s Day I just go to cr4ppy tire and pull random stuff off the shelves that I think is neat. I get a winner every time.
I met the Owners Dad in Charleston Massachusetts! Very nice guy. He told me go to any Canadian tire if I'm in Canada and need tires and tell em (Papa) Sent you and they'll give you a free pair! What a guy
Here's a FUN FACT about Canadian Tire: They have their own special supply chain. I worked at a Canadian Tire before and through covid and the trucks never stopped for a second. Every other business was having problems getting stock but not Canadian Tire. And that lead to record sales and zero wage increases (of course). Every Canadian Tire you go to will be over stuffed with stock.
I never hear anything about Australian coffee, yet I hear lots of Aussies complain about other countries’ coffee. It’s quite funny and a bit confusing! 🙃
@@omjeeowhich is sad in an ironic way, because when it was good, they were never making it themselves. Now if you want classic Tim's coffee, you go to McDicks.
@@Dawn_Hannah it's less abt the actual growing of coffee, more about the preparation. most suburbs have at least 1 barista-style coffee shop with a decent brew (including small towns), starbucks is confined to the CBDs and tourist traps, and the drip style coffee can only be found in gas stations and convienience stores
Well as a full blown Canadian since birth, and I’m 60 now, I’ve had Poutine maybe 4 times. Was pretty good. We don’t actually consume Maple syrup, we export it, or sell it to tourists. Our ski towns ,like Whistler, have more Aussies, than Canadians. I swear if your born there now, you’d grow with an Aussie accent. Canadian Tire is like a big box store, Kind like, Home Depot, Sears, Garden Depot, Lowe’s, Walmart,etc, with a Large Automotive Dept.
I went to a Canadian Tire in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and in the way back of the store was FULL to the brim with buckets, from the top to the bottom it was just buckets. What a spectacle it was.
I worked at that exact same Canadian tire in Langley, BC. Believe me, its the worst Canadian tire in BC. I was in the back and i have so many stories of the shenanigans that went on there. I just missed you by a month as i quit in June! Would’ve loved to meet you and i love the videos man, always brings a smile to my face!
Bro its wild seeing someone else from BC here. Were practically in the same neighbhorhood LOL Aint Langley getting a skytrain soon or sumn? Thats gonna be sick.
@@honkhonk8009 *soon*... There are apparently going to be three stops; one where the WhiteSpot is at Willowbrook, one across the street from where Gabby's is, and the last location is unknown.
@@honkhonk8009 give it 10 years maybe and by that time plans will be probably be changed. Would be nice for people that need to go into surrey or vancouver. I avoid Vancouver now.
Canadian tire 101: 1: if an item is not "in sale" , you will pay way more than anywhere else 2: If an item is "on sale" its usually in sale somewhere else for less 3: "special buy" is not a special price, its the regular price but made to look like a bargain 4: if you can avoid shopping at CT , you avoid. Thoses are the most important rules to remember about Canadian Tire
Dankpods is literally the only youtuber who actually sounds different when they're sick. Like, you'll have every other youtuber go "Oooooouuuuugghhhh sorry about my different voice, guys, I'm really sick right now" and they sound exactly the same as they always were
current controversies aside, Linus did sound different when he was getting over whatever it was he was getting over. He sounded deeper and not as shrill as he usually does. this was during the pandemic too so yeah.
Welcome to our country wade. Glad you went through the rite of passage and visited a crappy tire. Also, I'm sorry about Tim Horton's. They've been downhill for a while now.
I'm Canadian. Seeing people, especially my favorite TH-camr, get a total culture shock towards something that's totally normal to me is fantastic. Welcome back Dank 👍
As a Canadian and a Canadian Tire employee, the tires are all in the back mate, like rows and rows of tires, like floors black and squeaky from all the rubber kind of tires. They just dont put them in the floor cause tires ugly. Also the FRANK brand is the best each product had a cheeky pun on it its hilarious
I love listening to people talk about the place you live in like it’s an unexplored territory, which I guess it is for them. I agree with the traffic thing completely, every time I’ve gone away to somewhere that isn’t the states I stare a traffic in awe. I wanna visit Australia!
Dude, so happy you came to Canada! It was great to see someone experience it for the very first time. If you haven't seen snow before, come experience it during the winter months, it's terrible hahaha
He should at least experience it somewhere where the snow is actually snow and not just dirty ice crystals that freeze and thaw every day for about a week or two 😅
I never in my entire life thought I'd watch a DankPods video where I've been to all the same places you visit... what a legend, I hope you enjoyed my old stomping grounds and all the nonsense found within.
As a Canadian, I can confirm that we feel the same way about Tim hortons. It’s for when you only have a toonie and want a snack so you get a doughnut. Not much else
@@thekingoffailure9967 i honestly wouldnt be surprised if he got his own kiosk and a table with a green ipad as a placemat just to shout at tech he finds there
It warms my fragile but old heart to see a DankPod video on subscriber list to watch and enjoy. You're like a favourite hearty homemade soup with a crusty baguette on the side to sooth out the stresses of the day after grueling shift that you thought would never end, and thankful when it does. For those 8 minutes and 52 seconds, I feel completely relaxed. I've missed you more than the desert misses the rain, Wade.
He missed out on Southern Ontario.....where every city practically merges into the next. Some 30 plus cities packed into 100,000 square kilometers. Where 1/3 of Canadians live. Mountains are great but perhaps next time you'll come visit Niagara Falls! If you drive in Southern Ontario don't forget the speed limit is suggestive, feel free to do 20 to 30km/hr over or people will lose their minds on you!
Thanks for coming to Canada man! The best boss I’ve ever had was from Australia, and would always say “stress less mate” even in the most mundane of situations lol. Glad you enjoyed poutine and hope you get better soon!
Canada drives on the correct side of the road. Plus there are huge trucks everywhere. They’re way bigger than the regular Hiluxes and rangers of Australia. But still I would love it if Utes were available in the states/Canada.
We need them back. The sightlines of these massive trucks keep getting higher and narrower. I'd rather the people who need a smaller truck for light work aren't stuck between dealer-marked Mavericks and Rangers, and overweight monstrosities. It's so stupid.
those trucks are all fine and dandy (until you try to move anything) (or get in a crash) (or try to transport more than five people) the perfect family car.
As a Canadian, I will formally welcome you to Canada. I'm from Quebec, and there aren't any Canadian Tires near where I live, but I went a few years ago, and I had the same reaction to Canadian Tires, which is, "Where the heck are the tires?"
As an American, it was amazing watching an Australian visit Canada. It’s like two sides of the same waterproof dollar.
the parents and the foster parents of waterproof money
The only difference is one is hot and the other is cold
lol is called a loonie here
And it’s not like Canadian bank notes are made in aus
@@andrewduong2740Nah. One is hot, and the other is either hot or cold with no in between. It also has waterproof dollars with maple syrup smelly stickers.
As a Canadian, never actually take your car to the Canadian Tire auto shop. You can buy anything there but don’t give them your car.
Learned this rule of thumb growing up. If you're getting Corrosion Free sprayed this winter, you can go literally anywhere else.
Seconded. It's a pain anyway because they won't let you make an appointment.
Yup! Great place to buy small kitchen appliances and paint thought !
Its trueeeeeee
Definitely agree, one time saw a car catch fire outside a tim's because they got an oil change at crappy tire and forgot to put the new oil in the engine 0/10

“How does this aid in the forward momentum of an automobile” has to be one of my most favorite DankPods quotes so far.
as a fellow leaf, seeing an aussie be amazed at the lack of tires at canadian tire is a great experience
When I go to canadian tire, they never have what I look for. I end up driving to Napa auto parts
I can smell the video, Canadian Tire has a smell that i can never forget
@@69KB ong. Every canadian tire has the same smell

I met the Owners Dad in Charleston Massachusetts! Very nice guy. He told me go to any Canadian tire if I'm in Canada and need tires and tell em (Papa) Sent you and they'll give you a free pair!
What a guy
Here's a FUN FACT about Canadian Tire: They have their own special supply chain. I worked at a Canadian Tire before and through covid and the trucks never stopped for a second. Every other business was having problems getting stock but not Canadian Tire. And that lead to record sales and zero wage increases (of course). Every Canadian Tire you go to will be over stuffed with stock.
God, I love culture shock so much. It never stops being fun to see foreigners surprised by very normal things
Even though I've lived in Canada all of my life, I'm always amazed by how much stuff Canadian Tires sells. They have EVERYTHING. Even a friend
nooo don’t lie, Jean-Coutu is the place to find a friend
My bad you're right
i like how he didn’t notice “THE STICKER” i hope it stays unnoticed by wade for as long as possible
Canadian Tire does so well in Canada because there are so many small towns with minimal shopping. One stop shop is perfect for these places.
Wade's sick voice legit would be insane for voice acting. I just formed 5 characters in my head that would fit this voice so much
Wade would be legit so good at voice acting, when you see how many voices he can make in his past videos
Great to see Wade to continue the proud Aussie tradition of going overseas to compain about the quality of coffee
I never hear anything about Australian coffee, yet I hear lots of Aussies complain about other countries’ coffee. It’s quite funny and a bit confusing! 🙃
lol but as a Canadian, Tim Horton's coffee is genuinely terrible.
@@omjeeowhich is sad in an ironic way, because when it was good, they were never making it themselves. Now if you want classic Tim's coffee, you go to McDicks.
@@omjeeo I never drink tim's coffee. I rather pay 5$ at a real coffee place, not fast food coffee
@@Dawn_Hannah it's less abt the actual growing of coffee, more about the preparation. most suburbs have at least 1 barista-style coffee shop with a decent brew (including small towns), starbucks is confined to the CBDs and tourist traps, and the drip style coffee can only be found in gas stations and convienience stores
Well as a full blown Canadian since birth, and I’m 60 now, I’ve had Poutine maybe 4 times. Was pretty good.
We don’t actually consume Maple syrup, we export it, or sell it to tourists.
Our ski towns ,like Whistler, have more Aussies, than Canadians. I swear if your born there now, you’d grow with an Aussie accent.
Canadian Tire is like a big box store, Kind like, Home Depot, Sears, Garden Depot, Lowe’s, Walmart,etc, with a Large Automotive Dept.
what about the big maple syrup heist? when someone stole 3000 tons of syrup from the international strategic reserve.
7:59 Frank: If I were even 5 times larger, I'd eat you!
As A Canadian, It’s Funny To See An Australian Dude Yell About Canadian Tire Not Having Many Tires 😂
yea im also canadian and this shit is funny
Why is every single word in this comment capitalized?
My only question after seeing this comment is wondering why you’re Typing Like This
I went to a Canadian Tire in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and in the way back of the store was FULL to the brim with buckets, from the top to the bottom it was just buckets. What a spectacle it was.
Tribute to Stanley, perhaps? Who knows. :)
@@devilselbow we really do need Canadian Bucket.
NO WAY LMFAO, IVE BEEN TO THAT ONE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN
Canadian Tire's whole thing is buy up everything that can possibly be bought.
props to you for always flipping these videos for the rest of the world
The duck: 1. The greasy nugget known as dankpods: 0
I worked at that exact same Canadian tire in Langley, BC. Believe me, its the worst Canadian tire in BC. I was in the back and i have so many stories of the shenanigans that went on there. I just missed you by a month as i quit in June! Would’ve loved to meet you and i love the videos man, always brings a smile to my face!
As a Langley person after years of suffering at that location I now go to the one in Maple Ridge. Way better.
HELLOOOOOOOO! Still here 😉😁
Bro its wild seeing someone else from BC here. Were practically in the same neighbhorhood LOL
Aint Langley getting a skytrain soon or sumn? Thats gonna be sick.
@@honkhonk8009 *soon*... There are apparently going to be three stops; one where the WhiteSpot is at Willowbrook, one across the street from where Gabby's is, and the last location is unknown.
@@honkhonk8009 give it 10 years maybe and by that time plans will be probably be changed. Would be nice for people that need to go into surrey or vancouver. I avoid Vancouver now.
As a Canadian watching you reacting to Canadian tire, yes its that confusing, most people don't go to canadian tire for tires
Canada just looks like a colder and cleaner America. With less gun violence.
Canadian tire 101:
1: if an item is not "in sale" , you will pay way more than anywhere else
2: If an item is "on sale" its usually in sale somewhere else for less
3: "special buy" is not a special price, its the regular price but made to look like a bargain
4: if you can avoid shopping at CT , you avoid.
Thoses are the most important rules to remember about Canadian Tire
Dankpods is literally the only youtuber who actually sounds different when they're sick. Like, you'll have every other youtuber go "Oooooouuuuugghhhh sorry about my different voice, guys, I'm really sick right now" and they sound exactly the same as they always were
And he still manages to be just as, if not more, hilarious
current controversies aside, Linus did sound different when he was getting over whatever it was he was getting over. He sounded deeper and not as shrill as he usually does. this was during the pandemic too so yeah.
Welcome to our country wade. Glad you went through the rite of passage and visited a crappy tire. Also, I'm sorry about Tim Horton's. They've been downhill for a while now.
HEY! as a timmie's worker ...
...
yeah
The US Tims aren't better
@@slayerfan2 made that mistake on my way through. My god, I didn't think it could get that bad.
McDonalds has better coffee than Timmies now :(
@@ElegantJames hate to agree. But I have to agree.
As a Canadian, I am very interested to watch this
Glad you enjoyed your visit, mr pods 😆
As a canadian, this was the most entertaining video you have made so far.😁
As an American, I will smugly reiterate SO FAR, then go "USA! USA! We're #1 We're #1!" lol
But Canada has free health care.
When the world needed him most, he has returned. Welcome back DankPods!!!
Glad you got to experience our country, I hope you enjoyed your stay 😊

I'm Canadian. Seeing people, especially my favorite TH-camr, get a total culture shock towards something that's totally normal to me is fantastic. Welcome back Dank 👍
As a Canadian and a Canadian Tire employee, the tires are all in the back mate, like rows and rows of tires, like floors black and squeaky from all the rubber kind of tires. They just dont put them in the floor cause tires ugly. Also the FRANK brand is the best each product had a cheeky pun on it its hilarious
as a New Zealander, I agree, I don't know how the managed to film LOTR in the constant darkness we live in
I love listening to people talk about the place you live in like it’s an unexplored territory, which I guess it is for them. I agree with the traffic thing completely, every time I’ve gone away to somewhere that isn’t the states I stare a traffic in awe. I wanna visit Australia!
Canadian traffic is the same as America, but our buying habits are slightly different. Pickup trucks are everywhere, but we also buy more small cars.
@@andrewduong2740 there is certainly more of the bigger cars from the brands we buy smaller stuff from in the US vs Canada
The man, the myth, the Ozzie legend. He has returned and is the right way up this time

Dude, so happy you came to Canada! It was great to see someone experience it for the very first time. If you haven't seen snow before, come experience it during the winter months, it's terrible hahaha
He should at least experience it somewhere where the snow is actually snow and not just dirty ice crystals that freeze and thaw every day for about a week or two 😅
Looks like he was in the lower mainland BC so there would hardly be snow during winter unless you go to the mountains.
@@DevynCairnsWorse. He should experience snow where salt isn’t sprayed on the street and where it isn’t turned into Slush Puppie asphalt poo flavour
@@justindesrosiers3145 like Vancouver snow haha
@@DevynCairns YA’LL ARE SPARED FROM THE CURSED SHUSH?! Aight I’m moving out
wade laughing hysterically at the sticker brings me life and joy
As a Canadian, its funny hearing things we're totally used to. Glad you're feeling a little better too. Wish I could have made it to LTX.
Honestly was pretty weird to watch a Dankpods video and be able to say “Hey, I’ve been there before!” Glad you enjoyed Canada.
You earned my Canadian approval.
It's so fun seeing a non Canadian get surprised over normal things for me
I never in my entire life thought I'd watch a DankPods video where I've been to all the same places you visit... what a legend, I hope you enjoyed my old stomping grounds and all the nonsense found within.
As a Canadian, I can confirm that we feel the same way about Tim hortons. It’s for when you only have a toonie and want a snack so you get a doughnut. Not much else
The only reason I go is for the ice caps. No one can make them the same.
I stopped going to Tim Hortons about 7 years ago, they always got my order wrong.👎
@@GManWrites maybe go to a better tim hortons?
@@GManWrites don't come to alberta doesn't matter where you go every one gets it wrong at least once.
@@xaviermarican4557 Yeah I'll drive 8 kilometers for a coffee and doughnut, makes sense at nearly $2 a liter for gas. 🤔
it's been a long time mate and
WELCOME BACK
7:04 NO WAY
I like how he talk about all the big cars and how people just use them as family vehicles. There’s a lot of them and it’s a problem.
What I would give to bring Utes back
1:30 I guess no one's going to talk about Pikachu riding a motorcycle?
I'm glad that you found the truly important takeaway points about North America: trucks are awesome.
It's important to note that every Canadian tire also looks the same, give or take a few plastic sheds in the front parking lot haha
I was completely blown away when I saw Wade at LTX, crazy that I got a selfie with him, that alone basically paid the LTX tickets off.
That is so cool, nice
How did you know it was him? Could you hear him shouting halfway across the complex?
oh that would explain Langley and not Vancouver
@@thekingoffailure9967 i honestly wouldnt be surprised if he got his own kiosk and a table with a green ipad as a placemat just to shout at tech he finds there
@@thekingoffailure9967 probably been stalking him for days
I love how Wade didn't even throw away the 'James Channel is the best' note, he just covered it with pkcells.
6:21 Im not even playing with it... but even just looking at that rhythmic squishing is tickling my brain in ways its never been tickled
The sarcasm in this video has got to be the cutest thing he has ever made on TH-cam
It warms my fragile but old heart to see a DankPod video on subscriber list to watch and enjoy. You're like a favourite hearty homemade soup with a crusty baguette on the side to sooth out the stresses of the day after grueling shift that you thought would never end, and thankful when it does. For those 8 minutes and 52 seconds, I feel completely relaxed. I've missed you more than the desert misses the rain, Wade.
Man im heartwarmed this is poetry especially that last phrase ❤️🤍❤️
I love when people are excited to see mountains for the first time. They get so excited
I take them for granted
The best/worst part was as someone who lives in the mountains, I wasn't sure if he was being serious or not.
He missed out on Southern Ontario.....where every city practically merges into the next. Some 30 plus cities packed into 100,000 square kilometers. Where 1/3 of Canadians live. Mountains are great but perhaps next time you'll come visit Niagara Falls! If you drive in Southern Ontario don't forget the speed limit is suggestive, feel free to do 20 to 30km/hr over or people will lose their minds on you!
Welcome to Canada! Hope you enjoyed your “crappy tire” experience. Good news! Every Canadian tire is the same.
Some are bigger than others.
Thanks for coming to Canada man! The best boss I’ve ever had was from Australia, and would always say “stress less mate” even in the most mundane of situations lol. Glad you enjoyed poutine and hope you get better soon!
Canada drives on the correct side of the road. Plus there are huge trucks everywhere. They’re way bigger than the regular Hiluxes and rangers of Australia. But still I would love it if Utes were available in the states/Canada.
We need them back. The sightlines of these massive trucks keep getting higher and narrower. I'd rather the people who need a smaller truck for light work aren't stuck between dealer-marked Mavericks and Rangers, and overweight monstrosities. It's so stupid.
Canadian tire is just like Tractor supply in the states. Like, I got deja vu watching you walk through the aisles.
those trucks are all fine and dandy (until you try to move anything) (or get in a crash) (or try to transport more than five people) the perfect family car.
As a Canadian, I will formally welcome you to Canada. I'm from Quebec, and there aren't any Canadian Tires near where I live, but I went a few years ago, and I had the same reaction to Canadian Tires, which is, "Where the heck are the tires?"
If you're from Quebec, you can't formally welcome people to Canada. - an Ontarion
i'm from quebec and there's a canadian tire (and like three tim hortons) in my town
@@tgmwright Pffttt, you kept that right when you guys illegally rigged referendum.
