Honestly, as a Canadian, beggars can’t be choosers. Americans know so little about us, it’s impressive they made a skit about anything other than maple syrup. And the fact that one of them actually did a quebecois accent is pretty impressive, was expecting all of them to be Parisian lol. And it’s honestly hilarious that he said Tabarnak on live tv
Well... Bowen's mastery of the language makes it quite obvious that he did spend some time in Montréal, but I wouldn't "guess" that it makes him an expert. His "tabarnake!" reminded me of Dan Akroyd in a 70s hockey skit who shouted it with the same assuredness. I enjoyed them both equally!
I think it was pretty funny but they could have done so much more with it. Kate's accent was French not Quebecois and in Montreal they'd be more likely to have Celine Watch than Drake Watch.... It would have also been more accurate if one host had been missing because he drowned in a pot hole....

Didn’t know Bowen lived in Montreal for a little bit growing up. He does a good accent. He actually sounds Quebecois vs. French from France. As a Montrealer, I need and want more sketches making fun of us.
As a Montrealer I loved this! People really need to lighten up, this was pretty funny. They need to do an entire segment on les potholes next! Now I'm craving a big weird bagel ;)
The whole french speaking in Canada gimmick is that most French people from France don't understand us. Dude was speaking with a french accent, occasionally saying a swear word. Half of the jokes were Ontario based jokes for a Montreal based show? I'm sorry but what?
As a french canadian I had a couple of laugh, but it frankly misses the mark in term of accuracy. Smoking is french from France, the accent is french from France and no one cares about Drake here. Still kinda funny even If I can't recognize Montreal in it.
Especially when they show that "drake watch girl" at the CN tower, I was like WTF??? It would of been funny if that girl was presenting the meteo in front of the olympic stadium because it would of been from montreal and be much more accurate as it is a black women who presents meteo on Salut, Bonjour, they could of joked about how freezing it is or whatever. the whole bit just didn't work for me...

I think that Americans really see us as French people living in North America, but in reality, our lifestyle (our food, our sports, our stores, our cars, etc.) is a lot more American than French. Overall, the average Québécois is more at home in the USA than in France, even if we speak French.

@Rob MelroseHe's not that bad but it's old age. Have you seen The Revenant and that episode in Brooklyn Nine-Nine where they go the the Drummondville airport? They all have a european french accent.
Here in Montréal, we don't smoke cigarettes everywhere and all the time like Parisians... we don't speak like em (thank god) and for us Drake is just another Torontonian we don't care nor talk about. They missed the mark big time.. !

@@Adam-rj9wz There are many countries speaking french and there are more french speakers outside of France than inside it. No accent is more legit than another.

@@heyricksander I see, but Quebecers have little common with the people of France. France abandoned Quebec centuries ago. Quebec then evolved its own culture as French speakers in a sea of English speakers. The slogan on the licence plates is from a poem.

@@antonboludo8886 Yeah for sure. Just living here, it's a very, very strange place - Im sure it inspired at least 2 episodes of star trek where some culture from earth was isolated on another planet and evolved in its own weird way. Quebec also has a real stranglehold over the rest of Canada and is weirdly insecure and racist about everyone. I have a lot of French friends here who tell me not to bother learning french because the quebecois pretend not to understand their Native french - the language is used as a barrier. THe people here are wildly insecure and hold on to all sorts of centuries old ideas about being oppressed by the english - which they project onto everyone here today. And the city streets are filled with garbage, literally. I love visiting and working in Paris - here not so much. :)
Their french accent sounds way more like european french than canadian french, wich makes this whole skit fail miserably in my opinion, unfortunately for them.

What do call a person that speaks three languages: trilingual A person that speaks two languages: bilingual... A person that speaks one language: American
My mom has 3 brothers, 2 of which have Jean in their name: Jean-Luc, and Rejean. Haha! I enjoy it when SNL pokes fun at our Country too. The accents are hilarious and it is funny to see how Americans see us 🙂
I'm from Montreal and found this sketch mostly funny. The Drake watch thing was so-so. Her French accent was too fake. Bowen Yang was great and I've always liked Kate M. I hope they do another "Bonjour, Hi" sketch at some point.
Probably would've been funny in the 1970's ... outdated burlesque performance that just doesn't hit the mark, perhaps cause it's so inaccurate in the caricature.
I loved this! As a Montrealer born and raised, it was actually not that bad. It's satire, it's supposed to be exaggerated. The only thing that could have made it better is if Kate worked on her Quebec accent, she was using a Parisian accent, and it probably could've done without the whole Drake segment, not sure many of us care what Drake is up to in Toronto lol
I loved this both as a Montrealer and as a Torontonian--unlike that deadly unfunny Simpson's episode about Canada. I laughed at that balcony scene from the CN tower, with its rickety rail topped by those dinky gold finials. I also thought it was tragically funny that Bowen Yang had the best Quebecois accent.
I don’t see why this is such a “bad skit”... it’s SNL, do you think it’s supposed to be accurate? The inaccuracy is what made it funny. As a francophone I found this hilarious.
As some1 from montreal that was absolutly terrible. Their using France stereotypes. Also we don't give a shit about drake in montreal. This was 0% accurate about montreal. Even the traffic joke made no sense they coulda easily said something about our thousands of cones everywhere
The funniest part of this? As a Canadian, we don’t even remake your American news because it’s already such a freaking stupid show!! And by the way, it’s funny
So the cast of that Bonjour Hi show are... French immigrants in Quebec? SNL should definitely get accent coaches... or at least ones who aren't convinced that the Québécois and French sound alike when they speak French or English.
This was pretty cringy. No one drives Pugeots, no one smokes indoors, most French Canadians don't give a fook about Drake (Montreal v. Toronto rivalry), bagels don't look that bad, the accents are off... I don't know why Americans think French Canadians are just France French people in Canada, they've been living on this contient since 1534, so much like Americans, Mexicans etc. they developed their own culture and identity way different from their European ancestors. Wouldn't say I'm offended, but definatley eye-rolled. But the Tabarnak part was funny.
Hahaha clearly they had a writer who asked what a few expressions were. That's where the research ended. But I still giggled when he screamed "Ta Gueule!!!"
Ok French Montrealer too and I Love SNL and did not see this one so thi sis teh first time i see it did hear some comention when it got out but must say its very funy Tabarnauqe love i love the part whne he say Brossard , Sorel lol yeah its very Drole :) You gota have a sens of Humour I love it

I laughed at that balcony scene from the CN tower, with its rickety rail topped by those dinky gold finials. I also thought it was tragically funny that Bowen Yang had the best Quebecois accent.
Comme Montréalaise j'ai trouvé ça nul. On n'écoute pas les mêmes nouvelles et on ne parle pas à la française.
I think about this particular skit a lot
the SCREAM I let out when the ended with “That’s the Way It Is”
Being from Montreal, I don't think I know any Quebecois who care about Drake
Ont sen calisss de Drake, Marie-mai all the way.
@@mathieu100 en plein ça ahah
I don’t see why this is such a “bad skit”... it’s SNL, do you think it’s supposed to be accurate? The inaccuracy is what made it funny. As a francophone I found this hilarious.
Ce n'était pas trop mal...Montréal big weird bagels lol...et maintenant je veux un bagel St Viateur!
Oui en plus nos bagels sont bien meilleurs que les leurs.
@@scotchette
Nonsense
Yang has been comedy gold since he joined SNL. Keep it up!
Cringeworthy.
As some1 from montreal that was absolutly terrible. Their using France stereotypes. Also we don't give a shit about drake in montreal. This was 0% accurate about montreal. Even the traffic joke made no sense they coulda easily said something about our thousands of cones everywhere
Y'all comment like there are no French people who immigrated to Montreal
Bowen’s accent is actually really good
The dialogue at 1:30 is the most accurate thing I've ever heard. Idk why but every other conversation I've had in French sounded like this.
Petition to have this replace Weekend Update.
NO TYE WEEK-END UPDATES ARE THE BEST PARTS
Btw there is no more French car maker dealership in Quebec for decencies...
The CN tour is in Toronto... Drake is from Toronto. Their accent is pretty bad.
They went to their correspondent in Toronto. And it’s the CN Tower.
@@solitairedoll Why a correspondent in Toronto? And who the F*ck is Drake?
@@enzopalumbo2164 🙄🙄🙄
This made no sense. It sounded more like they were making fun of Paris rather then montreal.
Very bad job on this 1
Born and raised Montrealer....this was awful.
The funniest part of this? As a Canadian, we don’t even remake your American news because it’s already such a freaking stupid show!!
And by the way, it’s funny
this is the best snl sketch in the last five years and they took it off snl's channel :(
Love it!! More plz... tabernak!
Is it Montreal where they are kicking out non French speaking people.
They really dont know what they re talking about...
So the cast of that Bonjour Hi show are... French immigrants in Quebec?
SNL should definitely get accent coaches... or at least ones who aren't convinced that the Québécois and French sound alike when they speak French or English.
Supposé être drôle ? Très Mauvais
Ffs how about a real Montréal bagel at least?
Or smoked meat, or poutine
They wouldn't dare use an actual Montreal bagel since everyone knows they're superior to NY bagels by far...
I am from Montreal, and have lived here my whole life. I have never seen a bagel like that.
I guess it's safe to say that Drake is Canada's messiah.
Oh man there wasn't a Canadian on set to correct them?!
This was pretty cringy. No one drives Pugeots, no one smokes indoors, most French Canadians don't give a fook about Drake (Montreal v. Toronto rivalry), bagels don't look that bad, the accents are off... I don't know why Americans think French Canadians are just France French people in Canada, they've been living on this contient since 1534, so much like Americans, Mexicans etc. they developed their own culture and identity way different from their European ancestors. Wouldn't say I'm offended, but definatley eye-rolled.
But the Tabarnak part was funny.
Those were New York bagels! I protest! Merde.
Merde is never used in french canadian. Calisse is better
Ouf, very bad imitation of French Canadian accent. Sounds more like the French from France. But the tabernak was funny!
There's definitely some funny bits in here lol
I didn't know we had Peugeot in Canada...
Who's the asian guy? He's funny.
Hahaha clearly they had a writer who asked what a few expressions were. That's where the research ended. But I still giggled when he screamed "Ta Gueule!!!"
J'ai bien aimé et ils ont assuré ! Good job ! 😂
Please make this sketch permanent
Traffic was terrible near Jacques Cartier bridge last night..she was right 😁
From the moment i saw this skit....i always pronounce the city as 'Det-wah'
What day is Schartt$ Cavern on? I can't wait to see it.
Ok French Montrealer too and I Love SNL and did not see this one so thi sis teh first time i see it did hear some comention when it got out but must say its very funy Tabarnauqe love i love the part whne he say Brossard , Sorel lol yeah its very Drole :) You gota have a sens of Humour I love it
As a Montrealer, its pretty off but wtv who cares lol it was pretty funny and great to be featured tabarnak
What the hell? This is like if they did a sketch about Irish TV, and it's a bunch of guys in kilts, eating haggis, and quoting Bobbie Burns. What is the point?
C'est du n'importe quoi!!!
JF Desjardins LOL! Well done SNL
