For Newfoundland... on 9/11 all the plane were force to land the nearest airport. Gander is a small town but they had to host 33,000 people and there weren't enough hotels to cover all the "tourist". So the residence of the town allowed the "tourists" to stay at their homes until the planes got word they can fly again.
16 years later that story became a Broadway musical... "Come From Away" and that show got robbed of a Tony award.
WELCOME TO THE ROCK!
It was actually 7,000 but for a town of 10,000 it was an amazing accomplishment to feed, cloth, and board all of them. I'll never forget that week. Soo many people. Imagine your towns population almost doubling in 4 hours..
And yes robbed indeed, we got to see that play first at our local Art and Culture center. They used us for rehearsals before Broadway haha.
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one still salty about the 2017 Tony's.
Grahamfield25 I am from Newfoundland and I can confirm.
Haha poor newfies
The Canadian guy needs to brush up on his geographical knowledge of his own country.
He is from Southern Ontario, what do you expect.
Lord Selkirk of Scotland founded what became the City of Selkirk just north of Winnipeg.
Yup Southern Ontario, nearly Toronto, people often have no idea about the rest of Ontario or the rest of Canada.
He's from Ontario so to his credit he's basically American
Well from what I know, with the exception of the maritime provinces, people don't really visit the other provinces. Occasionally people will cross from Ontario to Quebéc but that's it...
Guy from Ontario doesn’t even know his own province.
Yeah.. That was embarrassing, eh!
That would be embarrassing
I'm dead🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cringe. So much cringe. Da pain
Yeah, he's from Hamilton though, so he might just have a general "fuck Toronto" attitude.
The capital of Ontario is … oh, wait 500 other people already commented on this.

@@cente14 ?
one small correction! The capital and largest city of Ontario is Toronto, not Ottawa. However Ottawa is the capital of Canada .
True
Fairly large mistake
how did he not know? hes from Hamilton
Thanks for reminding the rest of Canada and the world..lol I'm born and raised in Ontario and obviously I'm well aware of this but many others may have forget...lol
I came to the comments to mention this lol
I am an Acadian and I don't like how he said that we migrated to Louisiana. That makes it sound like we decided to move there on our own volition.
We were mass deported by the British. The event was called le grand dérangement.
La déportation des Acadiens
I actually think he explained this better in the official Canada video.
deportation (to me anyway) implies that they were sent back where they came from but the did not come from Louisiana. I would call it being expelled. The British didn't send them anywhere, they just wanted the Acadians to leave.
Je sais, ça m'a profondément déçu aussi de ce que qu'il disait au sujet du Québec. Tellement que j'ai arrêté de suivre sa page à cause de ça. Qu'il invite quelqu'un du pays dont il parle c'est super, mais de biaiser l'information comme ils l'ont fait c'est profondément dérangeant.
@@MrWaldorfian Well, you have the wrong definition.
The Acadians did not migrate to Louisiana, they were deported by the English from 1755.
@Allan Tidgwell Pretty much and until 'La Proclamation Royale' they weren't able to come back... Once some of them came back they found there houses and stuff burned and weren't able to owe fields until few years after
The Acadians were deported in the 13 colonies and some of them in France and United Kingdom . Some that were to be deported to the falklands made a mutinery and deturned the ship to Louisiana . And some others got there from the 13 colonies too , by foot , when they were kind of captive there, or after they obtain the right to leave , after the war .
And the Acadians took land from
The first settlers of Canada the First Nations
@@madisonthorne4181 lol the Acadians and Miꞌkmaq Mixed and lived together, today many Acadians have Miꞌkmaq blood and vice versa
Allan Tidgwell migrate generally implies you chose to move no need to be pedantic.
Hehe.... Regina.
Hope you enjoy this filler week episode! Thanks to all you Canadians that helped with it and especially guest star- Aaron!
Update WHOA Sorry got the whole "Tornto/ Ottawa thing wrong! Haha, Ottawa is for all of Canada and Toronto is the capital of Ontario"
There is no brazilian portuguese translation?
YEAHHH
Geography Now please do regions of the Philippines
When you are talking about Native people from Canada, they're called Native Canadians, not Native Americans. And Toronto is the Capital of Ontario. Ottawa is the capital of Canada.
Can you do British territories next as a different filler week episode
Fun fact: Many people learn Standard French instead of Canadian French in school, and thus have major difficulties understanding Québec French speakers.
Fun fact: French teachers in English Canada can't speak French so they teach neither Canadian French nor European French. They just teach rubbish French.
Fun fact: every francophone learnt standard French at school, but none of them actually speaks it because everyone has an accent. ;)
It's the same French as here in France just the accent is different.
@@TAKEmeTOtheMORGUE Fun fact: As far as I'm aware, Francophone universities in Quebec require you to sit an entrance exam that, among other things, measures your proficiency at Standard French, and that aspect is, I'm told, very difficult. =3
@@manhoosnick Written Quebec French is fairly close to Standard French except in vocabulary, but as you progress towards more informal spoken varieties, it diverges both in lexis and in grammar-as I'm well aware informal spoken varieties in, say, France also diverge. Admittedly, a large part of my difficulty with Quebec French, beyond the accent, is having been taught very little _colloquial_ French, of _any_ dialect.
Stop it, I'm having Nunavut.
I have waited all my life waiting for some kind of reason to live your pun sir has given me life. I thank you.

Acadians migrated to Louisiana? Yeah, at the point of a gun.
that was explained in an other of his video
The Acadian were forced out of Nova Scotia and none were deported to Louisiana. They did go there on their own but of course they felt they could not return to Nova Scotia as their lands had been given to other settlers.
@@EdinburghFiveThats not what we are taught in québec... British had taken acadian that were not willing to be a subject of the queen by force and they sent them in louisiana...
Hi @@gaelfortier2668 - Sorry to hear that you were provided with erroneous information at school. Also it was not that the Acadians were unwilling to be subject to the king (no queen reigning in Britain at that time) as in fact they had already provided an oath to the crown on that very point. It was they wanted to remain neutral in any conflict between Britain and France. This neutrality had been achieved but in 1755 the British colonial government at Halifax demanded the Acadians take an unqualified oath which technically would mean the Acadians were no longer neutral. In the build up to the Sevens Years War there had been a few instances that left the British in double as to the Acadian's trustworthiness and then by refusing the unqualified oath it made these Acadian British subjects in the eyes of the British colonial administration potential rebels.
i'm Acadian , it's better than being killed or else I wouldn't be here,:)eh
It seems to me that the word "sorry" is used to indicate respect and humility for the other when you have inconvenienced someone. It's not an admission of wrong doing, it's just an ingrained social grace to smooth things over after an awkward encounter. I'm from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
This usage, is probably why we Canadians have that "polite stereotype" going on...since it's not used in an admission of guilt, it can also be a declaration of empathy to the plight of the subject, even if the speaker doesn't have any connection to the plight itself. Sort of a: "That sucks, I hear and understand you, and am capable of empathizing with your unfortunate situation."
I would venture and further state that the use of "eh?" at the end of a statement or suggestion, is another such linguistic artifact in our speech and generalized macro-culture. Sort of a "I'm stating this as a fact or a suggestion, but the inclusion of a question at the end, means that I am not trying to be forceful or pushy about it, eh?" In some cases "eh?" could be used as a short hand for "what do you think about this?", an open invitation for others to speak their mind and get their own input in, inherent to the speech pattern.
Just a theory though, eh?
do you say "hard" and "heart" like "hah-rd" and "hah-rt"
Minnesota does the same exact thing. But hey!... most people call us Southern Canada anyways.
@@ianlangsev5828 I'm from Alberta, and I say "hey", instead of "Eh" as well. But alot say "Eh" here as well.
I think your right. Sorry to me, is almost a way of just being polite, friendly, especially when talking with people I don't know. I think it could be linguistically interchanged with "Pardon me" in a lot of usages. I find for the most part, I'll say it when bumping through a crowd while shopping on a busy day. And will also use pardon me, but that's in a more jovial, playful tone.
Québécois French is different from France French because Quebec was colonized before the French Revolution. After the Revolution, France made a concerted effort to use the French of the commoners rather than the nobility. Quebec was part of the British Empire at the time and did not follow suit, leading to a bisection of the language.
Fun fact: Quebec French is used more in the realm of international relations than France French. This is because France French is more modern and is based off the Parisian dialect during the French Revolution. Most former French colonies have an easier time understanding Quebec French than France French.
@@mattbenz99 This is not true at all. Former French colonies in Africa, in the Pacific Ocean, in the Carribean learn the France version of French. Even those close to Canada like St Pierre and Miquelon have an easier time with the French dialect.
I'd say the only ones who have an easier time understanding Quebec French would be the Acadians and the Cajuns.
mattbenz99 [Canadian Gambit] that’s right! The former French colonies speak a formal academic french. But some you need to know guys, Quebec has brought to the the French language more than any other French speaking country including France. All the female job names where created by Quebec. In France the title of Doctor is given to both male and female whereas in Quebec There are Doctor and Doctoresse
mattbenz99 [Canadian Gambit] there is no difference between the Quebec French and France French when it comes to education! The difference is in the spoken French
Most of the Québécois people originally came from northern France so the French in Normandy and Rouen speak a closer accent. Also Acadian French is also different from Quebec French.

1:21 Canadian territories *do* have their own governments and are not directly administered by the federal government as Aaron erroneously claims. The biggest differences between provinces and territories is that provinces receive their legislative authority from the Constitution whereas territories receive legislative authority from the federal government through devolution, similar to Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

As a person from Saskatchewan, the bottom half is flat lands but the north is all trees. As for some things about us: we like camping and fishing, farming is a big industry here, we have the highest crime rates, like Manitoba we have a high Native American population, strip clubs are illegal because of archaic rules, drinking age is 19, we were the province that started free healthcare. Manitoba's quote "I was born here what's your excuse" fits us very well.
Edit: How the hell did I forget Corner Gas, thank you Logi
very beautiful in northern Sask. one of the few old growth forests i've been to, it made quite the impression.
...Also, you would not actually want to run away from the law here...they can track you by the naked eye for miles XD
Sorry, had to get the "flattest province" jokes in there.
REGINAAAAA (sorry)
Thanks! yep. Saskatoonian here. I hear the hippies are gearing up for another logging fight. Seems the industries are trying to clearcut some very valued chunks of boreal forest. Keep your ear tuned!
As a person from Manitoba who has lived in Calgary for almost 16 years, I still hate the Roughriders with a passion... Blue and Gold for life :)
People in Quebec actually speak a dialect of French that is older than what is commonly spoken in France now. One French king (I believe it was Louis XIV or XVI) changed the way people in France spoke by decree. This was after Quebec was mostly settled, so the people from there speak French a little differently than you would hear in France.
As someone from PEI your info about us in 1800's clothes running through fields is 100% correct
Gabe Carter-Caseley right? we all wear suspenders and dresses and we’re all farmers
I blame that Megan Fellowes woman ! It's all her fault!
Do the buildings of the Vatican! Hahahahh
The Territories (Nunavut, the Northwest Territories, and the Yukon) do have their own governments. They just have less autonomy than the provincial governments, but they do create their own policies and legislation, have their own education systems, and have a consensus government called a Legislative Assembly (at least in the NWT).
Guys, I don't want to be mean here, but a simple google search would have cleared this up for you. I know you have a disclaimer, but just because someone is from Canada, doesn't guarantee they understand how the country works.
Also, one of the main differences between Provinces and Territories is that unlike Provinces, where there's a Lieutenant Governor as the Queen's representative in each Province, each Canadian Territory has a Commissioner, who represents the federal government and not the Queen (Territories do not have a Queen's representative).
A Portuguese in Canada They do in the form of the Governor General as regardless of limited devolved powers they still fall under federal jurisdiction...
7:17 I personally find that quite amazing.

"I like how you pronounce 'Bilingual'" "We enunciate better" -> Immediately get an ad for Grammarly.

Territories have their own governments. They just leave more responsibility to the federal government than the provinces.

Territories in Canada do have their own governments and they are called territorial governments

You don't really show where the provinces are when you present them. Just a suggestion to fix that next time
yeah, was hoping for more map action :)
A correction on your initial comment RE: Canada's territories:
They do have their own governments, but they are not independently sovereign, like the provinces are (ie: the provinces get their authority from the Canadian [originally British] Crown [which is why the provinces each have their own Lieutenant Governor], while the territories get their sovereignty from the Federal Government).
Or put another way, the territories are creatures of the Federal Government like how municipalities are creatures of the provincial governments.
Pronunciation:
Charlottetown = Charlotte-Town
I'm Canadian I just pronounce it "Charlotte town" as in a literal Town {7:30}
Town? City? ... There's no consensus defining a difference between them, but I agree, a town is, by popular definition, smaller than a city. A city/prefecture/region is also called a metropolis when its population has surpassed 5 million inhabitants. And is called a megacity after 20 million (if I remember correctly the #).
My personal qualifiers: A town has less than 1 million.. a city has more than 1 million ... Some people would disagree though, i.e. Seattle < 1 M, but they label themselves a city...
Bobbius Shadow There is no international consensus. I live in The Netherlands and our biggest town/city is Amsterdam, about 800.000 inhabitants. There is an historical definition. Towns got city right from the regional ruler (count, king etc). In our country there are cities with only 1400 inhabitants, like Bredevoort who got city rights in 1388, or Stavoren with about 900 inhabitants who got city rights in 1061. City rights meant that they got their own monetary right, judicial system and tax system. And they needed to fortify their town with city walls with a gate, or canals with a drawbridge. Nowadays we call buildup areas with about 50-100k inhabitants cities if they have their own board or administrative body (municipal) and enough services, like hospital, schools, shops, theaters, sometimes university etc.
@@RealConstructor That's interesting, I like it, thx for your input

@@crashiecorbashie same lol
There is some things that may have been left out that I want to put out.
1. Canada first got its roots for the Confederacy in Charlottetown, PEI. All Starting with Sir. John A. MacDonald and Sir George Etienne Cartier.
2. The very first province that was settled by Europeans was Newfoundland by the Nordic People. They only stayed temporarily cause they were fought out of the area by the Native People.
3. Nova Scotia is the first actual landing site of French, British, Irish, and Scottish people, and is also one of the provinces with the most descendants of the Loyalists. During the American Revolution.
4. Annapolis Royal or during its time, Port Royal was once the Capital of Canada when it was still a colony. That is why when you pass by on the Highway 101, it says "Cradle of our Nation."
5. Canada also shares military personnel between provinces during the summer for the Cadet Organization. Sending Cadets aged 12-18 to different training centres for their experiences and new ways of approaching problems and solving them, as well as receiving their specific training for Air, land and sea.
6. Canada still has people of L'Acadie descent in the Maritime provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. They speak with a slightly different accent, and some words mean different than Québécois french and France.
7. Tim Hortons is one of our most popular places to get coffee (STILL IS) but it was beaten by the McCafe brand of coffee by McDonalds. McDonalds kept the original blend, making it taste slightly better than the current 100% Arabica Coffee.
That's pretty much all I got. Hope this helps out in the end. Hello from Annapolis, Nova Scotia!
Just on #3 here, the loyalists did go to both New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, but their main landing site was in Parr Town and Carlton on May 18th 1783 with over 2000 loyalists arriving. Parr Town and Carlton amalgamated to form Saint John in 1785 and making Saint John the first incorporated city in Canada. Saint John is sometimes referred to as the "city of loyalists". Cheers from Saint John, New Brunswick.
@@weav0303 Also, those people are the ones who deported over 20 000 acadians over Lousiana, France, Maine, North New-Brunswick, Cape-Breton island etc. Nicely done by you two !

r/iamverysmart
I would not say that the viking settling site in Newfoundland was a " province " .
Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but worth noting that Nova Scotia also has a sizeable French-speaking population, especially in Cape Breton!
I enjoy your videos, you are among the few that are able to explain a nation's history and culture accurately and with proper context in a short amount of time.

There are way too many provinces(22) in China, not even including the autonomous regions(5), the municipalities(4) and the special administrative regions(2). As the difference within the provinces could be huge, it might be challenging to provide a general introduction like this one. BTW, the contents could be very controversial (for they Chinese apparently) when introducing Tibet and East Turkestan(AKA Xinjiang). But would be alright if they are not his subscribers, LOL

No, France got 18 regions (12 in mainland Europe). These regions are subdivided into states.

I think Manitoba is so unknown by people from other provinces because hardly anyone lives there. There also isn't really any noteworthy attractions to bring people, aside from Churchill, or hunting and fishing if you're an American. If you remove the Winnipeg greater area from the population, the rest of the province only has about 560,000 people. Realistically, Saskatchewan is more densely populated, and has many more larger centers (smaller cities) than Manitoba.
Having traveled extensively throughout MB and SK, MB is BY FAR the flatter province! The Red River Valley is actually one of the flattest areas in North America. Even up north, Manitoba is insanely flat. You can drive from Emerson to Thompson (860km) with only driving over a few rolling hills near Grand Rapids and closer to Thompson. Saskatchewan as a whole is quite hilly, just not mountainous. MB is essentially a toilet bowl, with water from Alberta, Saskatchewan, North Dakota, and a bit of Ontario and Minnesota drain through Manitoba and into the Hudson Bay.
Manitoba does have a lot of amazing places, but they are very spread out. You have to drive for hours to visit most of them. Some of the most amazing places in the province are fairly unknown and fairly undeveloped for public access. As someone who grew up in rural MB, the thing about MB that annoys me the most is how EVERYTHING is centered around Winnipeg. So much so, that it is helping kill off the rural areas, as services are being removed and people are expected to travel to the city for everything. Without those services, it becomes undesirable to live there, so business and people leave. Also, the people who have lived in Winnipeg all their lives often suffer from Perimeteritis, and can't imagine the province outside of the Perimeter Highway around the city. This gets very dangerous when politicians have this... Rural and Northern MB suffer badly.
As a whole, I would say Manitobans are usually pretty humble people. I'm proud to be from Manitoba, but I really would like to move to Yukon, NWT, NW Ontario, BC, or yes, even SK! Too bad all of my family lives here....
Lots of people would like to move to BC, but the cost of living there is too high.
The territories are the lest populated and actually the coldest no many options for jobs compared to most places in Canada good place to go if you want to rough it out or see the northern lights as they part of the northern lights oval
Where in Manitoba are you from?
Take a look at material on "primate cities" or "primacy". It will expand on what you have described. Primate cities are at least twice as large as the next largest city in the region (country, for example) in which they exist. As a consequence of primacy, they usurp the resources of the area in which are located. There is an extensive geographical literature on the topic or look at Wikipedia.
You could move to North BC or Yukon, is becoming quite develop

the real challenge is learning how to swear properly in Quebecois (and not Montrealais, which has been bastardized LOL)
Dude, for an American your faux-Quebecois pronunciation of "poutine" is actually pretty spot-on! Also, I had no idea that "sorry" was a Canadian-American shibboleth (as is the name of my beloved hometown, "Montreal," incidentally). Cool!
Provinces of Iran could be awesome. Very diverse and very cool.
I was waiting till you’d do canada, next you should do the UK, Germany or the Netherlands
Fiery Gaming those counties aren’t big enough
Fiery Gaming the provinces and states in this series are many times the size of those whole countries
U.K. counties are SMALL
Fiery Gaming he could do boroughs of London
Ricky I i mean the countries of the UK: Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland
Great video, guys
Hooray for this!!!
I am a Manitoban, born and bred (although I spent a few years in Montreal in my 20s), and they're sorta right, we are generally outdoors-y types. Lots of people own or rent cottages on one of the roughly 100,000 lakes we have here, and hiking, camping, snowmobiling, hunting and fishing are all really popular activities (I know a few people who hunt, but I don't think it's as common as the others on that list). It gets really cold here in the winter, and fairly hot in the summer - we are actually one of the places that has the greatest temperature extremes in the world. There are 90 degrees Celsius between our coldest extreme temperature (-47.8 C) and our hottest (42.2 C) - only a couple places in Siberia can top that. Normally in a winter we'll hit -38 C at least once, but we rarely get colder than that these days (climate change!)...the coldest temperature I have personally witnessed here was -42 C (wind chill was -57 or something crazy). In the summer, we've been hitting 37-38 C at least once as well, sometimes a bit hotter.
As for Winnipeg being the "murder capital" of Canada, we have held that title 20 times out of the 37 years I've been alive. It's calculated on a per capita basis, so where you said 6 murders, I believe the stat is actually 6 murders *PER 100,000 PEOPLE.* Incidentally, that number is basically an all-time high (and was set several years ago) - currently, we sit at just 3.5 homicides per 100,000 people. If Winnipeg was an American city, we would currently sit 66th in per capita murders for cities over 250,000 people (between Santa Ana, California and Mesa, Arizona)*.
*Those stats are from the last US Census, so things have almost certainly changed in the interim; if you want to compare apples to apples and judge Winnipeg's rate at the time of the last US census, there would be about 50 US cities with higher murder rates.
Also, I'm fairly certain that the "we were born here, what's your excuse?" phrase was just something ripped from The Simpsons. I've personally never heard anybody use that phrase outside of referring to the TV show.
I went to Flin Flon for fishing once
@@evankrosney6759 Ya, it was on a road sign in Manitoba when they visited Winnipeg. I've heard quite a few people use it, including myself, but only after that episode aired. Its such a true statement. I can see someone not understanding it if they have "perimeteritis"
Manitoba has the cool tourist spot where you can explore to see polar bears and have a taste of the Arctic nature. Suddenly, I am from Ontario and I have never went anywhere outside of Ontario.
Volcanoman damn didn’t have to write an essay about Manitoba not much to love here
Do a Italian regions explained video please!!
Yes! Would love to know more about them, especially Sicily and Sardegna. Ciao da Malta 🇮🇹🇲🇹
theres quite a bit I didn't know about my own country. Thanks for the upload, it was fun to watch.
Another great video guys! Keep it up.
You could visually tell this guy was from Ontario lol. This guy loves his pumpkin spiced lattes

@@FlamesOfTyphon they could get a German, that would probably help a lot. Either way, Germany should be in the spotlight again. They finally conquered Europe, this time through trade, diplomacy, and peace.

The cajuns “migrated” to Louisiana is a way to explain it, definitely not gonna mention that they were brutally forced by the British to go there (and other places) and that a giant percentage of the population died on the way there due to infection/starvation ect. 🙃
Thanks guys! I learnt a lot from ya
Most politicians are not bilingual. Only party leaders "need" to be bilingual.
There is no law requiring it, but it is expected.
@@Fitzsimmons. yeah even then only for party leaders
This is correct. Only Federal Government workers of a certain level, and people who want to be Prime Minister (or party leaders) I'm not sure if the current Premier of Ontario in bilingual, but the previous one, and leader of the other party is. New Brunswick's premier absolutely has to be. Quebec's does as well, but to a lesser extent.
There’s no law mandating bilingualism, but in practice if you only know one language a lot of the higher jobs in the government are locked to you.
@@xXPyrophorusXx Ford doesn't speak French and isn't interested in learning. His government actively avoids including any French in public addresses. His Francophone affairs minister (Caroline Mulroney) is fluent (her dad was from the north shore of Quebec after all) but she doesn't use it since Ford won the leadership.
Nova Scotia was not a colonization attempt by Scotland, that was Belize. The large Scottish population was largely the result of fleeing persecution by the English after the Jacobite rebellion
As well as the highland clearances
It was technically a Scottish colony for a very short time though, according to google at least.
Hey Barby, just some random observation: I noticed at the Canadian map in 0:13 that the color shades of Yukon Territory (yellow), Northwest Territories (blue) and British Columbia (red) happen to have the same arrangement of colors as the Philippine flag's (although the Philippine flag is a white triangle but with yellow sun and 3 stars inside it, but yeah, you know what I mean).It's also interesting that the Yukon Territory is shaped like a triangle and the latter two provinces I mentioned looked like the flag's bands.
"I thought it would be a good Idea to have a Canadian" brings out someone from Ontario, every video, made by Americans trying to explain Canada, ever
Ontario makes up over a third of the county’s population so it makes sense
This seems like a dumb hyping to be mad about. I’m not Californian but if a YT vid explaining America used a Californian as an example I would be like “yeh that makes sense”.
@@Trethan3266 well, as you can see, he get a lot of information wrong about Canada
I thought he also brought him along because they were roommates. He probably thought it was easier to bring in a Canadian he knew than a random Canadian.

Also, as a Manitoban, I pronounce Charlottetown as Charlotte-town... no 'ton'. So that's interesting!
As someone who lives there, it's pronounced Charlotte-town. No 'ton' indeed.
I'm an Ontarian and I use -town as well.
Fun Fact: Labrador wanted to join Quebec
The way Paul pronounced poutine gave me goosebumps
in a good way or bad way?

Yeah and even more spaced out now since Marijuana has been made totally legal in Canada.
..i am surprised B.C. bud wasn't mentioned..
Only uptight, left-leaning, law abiding suburban people & casual users buy legal weed. Dispensaries charge double the street price. And it’s dry as hell - no need to cut or grind, just squeeze it w your fingers..even the stems crumble. The rest of us with brain power still hit up the weird dealers

As an Albertan, whose parents are farmers, I will admit, we love our rodeos out here. Saying that we’re the “Texas of Canada” is definitely not wrong.
Good video!
The territories do have their own governments and can make their own laws. The difference is how their powers were delegated to them by the British North America Act, and later the Constitution Act. Also, The capital of Ontario is Toronto, while the Capital of Canada is Ottawa.
Please do mexico next. I want to know whats up with sinaloa after watching narcos

Thanks for giving us some valuable screen time! Also just to clarify, Canada’s native people are collectively referred to as the First Peoples, which include the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. There’s hundreds of sub-groups and languages within these.
Newfoundland is one word btw. Also, a good way to remember how to pronounce it is that it rhymes with 'understand'.
IE: The thing no one outside of Newfoundland and Labrador can actually do, when a person from St. Johns is talking at full speed... XD
I would also point out two things that were should've been mentioned in the video: Newfoundland is known for producing a looooot of strong Comedic talent (with a reputation for the Satirical...Mercer, Walsh, etc), but Montreal is known for it's Comedy festivals (Just for Laughs, etc)....and also for getting randomly involved in elaborate pranks in the streets.
The Labrador part of Newfoundland is on mainland Canada. Newfoundland is an island by the Atlantic Ocean.
Clarke Road Trojans I didn't say anything about Labrador, I was pointing out how "Newfoundland" was spelt as "New Foundland" in the video. I know Labrador is part of the province, I'm from Newfoundland.
I'm an Albertan and love Newfies as we all playfully call them. Such good, humble hard working people. And they got a great sense of haha. Worked with hundreds of them, and many good friends.
Yeah, the emphasis is also drawn on the 'a' sound in 'land', not in 'new'.
Also how can you do a video on Canada and not even spell all of the provinces right. He even had a Canadian there and wasn't corrected!
Awesome:) I was looking for the pronunciation of the territories, but this video was so attractive and made me watch it all:)
From Alaska with love❤️⛄️🐻
Fun Fact: Alaska's population is more than quadruple that of Nunavut, Northwest Territories, Yukon and Greenland combined!
It helps that Alaska has some legitimately habitable areas in the south-central part of the state and in the panhandle
The territories do have their own governments. The main difference is that territorial governments get their powers from the federal government, whereas the provinces get their powers from the Constitution.
Saskatchewan is a nice place. My cousin and her wife live there.
Many Saskatchewan Canadians have Ukrainian roots. They fled from the economic and political turmoil of their homeland in the 1890's to build a better life. A second immigration wave occurred following the First World War and a third wave came following the Second World War.
teto85 u mean you’re cousin and his wife?

Thank you for mentioning the Navajo connection. 800 years ago a migration of dene went south. My late wifes family speaks dene wich is still close enough to Navajo that they can understand each other so i hear from a first hand source.
