I am very excited to once again take a look at some of the most popular Canadian TikToks on the internet. I enjoy watching these because Canadian TikToks tend to contain a mixture of funny, educational, and insightful knowledge into Canadian culture that you just can't find anywhere else. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!
You've played "Pick a Lane and Go," but only the real Canadian's have played "Am I still on the road?" 😂
You're a really real Canadian when you play 'Am I still on the road?' While being chased by a bull moose.
Or you call into work because a dead moose is blocking the end of your driveway. Bonus points if you live in Moose Jaw or Moose Factory.
For real😂
I lost that game once. wondering why there were cars to my right going highway speed, I apparently drove onto a river and didn't notice
Hahaha... I totally remember one night when my dad was rushed to a hospital 3 hours away. The highways were closed but we hopped in the Mazda anyway. Took us 5 hours to drive it, couldn't see the road 90% of the time. Only way you could tell you were still on the road is the very short (like less than a foot tall) bank that followed the edge of the road.
Exactly! Is this still even the road?
'Pick an imaginary lane' is a very normal winter condition on the roads in Canada.
I've been in a few storms bad enough that I would have pulled over if I knew where the side of the road was and if I wasn't guaranteed to be snowed into my car if I stopped. I just kept driving with the thought "this feels like the road".
You just approximate the middle of your side of the road regardless of # of lanes and hope for the best
Same as parking just pick a spot lol
Pick a spot, leave room to pass, good enough
Also good to keep a shovel in the vehicle if needed
As is parking in a snow bank. Could be an Olympic sport!
"Follow the tail lights of the car in front," said my mother to my brother. And he did - followed them right into the ditch, and we had to stay in the village hotel nearby.
Well I mean, he's good at following instructions...
I did that and ended up behind him in his driveway😅😂
"Pick a lane and go" is level 1, "who's lane is it anyway?" Level 2, "Where's the rumble strip?" (And which part of the road does it belong to) Level 3.
Boss level: Am I still on the road?
Don't forget the bonus round: why is there a cow?
@@Fortheloveofoutside I was literally just going to comment that 😂
Super boss level out in the smaller townships, is I sure hope someone coming the other way isn't using my lane.
Boss Level 3- Snowplows have been recalled due to no visibility. Good luck! Oh that? It’s just a white blanket I’ve strewn across my windshield to practice.
So true
In Canada, most of the year, you drive where you're supposed to.
In Canada, in Winter... you drive where you can.
In winter road in Canada. You are in pack mentality. You adopt follow the leaders car unless you got car capable of being the leader! 😊
In Canada, most of the year, it is winter.
@AwesomeJohn117 only 3 months where I am now maybe 4. Used to be right from October to May minimum when I was a kid. Things are changing. Maybe when I'm old I ll be able to plant palm trees lol.
@@brandonbeck1313 Especially the last 4 winters. I've never been bothered by the amount of snow so little than the last few years, and it used to be a pet peeve of mine.
That was a Wood Buffalo by the roadside ( as opposed to a Plains Buffalo). It's on the Manitoba Provincial flag. In other parts of the country you might see a moose or a caribou instead. Musk oxen (actually a type of huge goat) live further north, where there are mostly fly-in only communities, so less chance of seeing one of them beside a road (less chance of seeing a road). 😊
As an American ex-pat living here for 49 years, I appreciate your taking the time to learn about your good neighbours to the north that don't cause your country any trouble.
And as a Canadian, I absolutely love when Americans learn more about us :) We've been allies for so long that it's definitely surprising sometimes how little people know about how we became so closely knit as nations haha
Driving during a snowstorm at night is visually very much like hitting warp drive in star wars or star trek.
LOL - this is SOOOOOO true - I used to think it was like being inside one of those kalidoscopes!
I’ve seen the meme that compares driving in a snowstorm and flying the Millennium Falcon
I always think of that, too.
Yup especially when the snow is the big fluffy kind.
Totally!
The first video is pretty good driving conditions. I mean, you can see the cars all around, and parts of the road underneath the snow.
It gets really fun when you don't know where the road ends and the ditches begin.
That's what I thought. You could see enough road to know you were on it and the visibility was good. It's when it's dark and the snowflakes coming at your car are illuminated in the headlights so they look like a video game and you can't see the road at all you have to worry.
I know that experience. Driving on the QEW with 3 lanes in each direction you cannot see the road. There are only 2 lanes and everyone following the track from the car in front of you.
True - I have driven in much worse lol
The joys of driving by braille. i.e: the rumble strips on the breakdown lane.
That's when you get good at 'gauge by snowbank'
That young woman with 10 ways to piss off a Canadian is 1000% accurate on every single one!😂
Yes but if you really, really, want to piss Canadians off tell us we are like Americans. By the way it's not poutine or poutin it's poutsine with a hint of an s after the t
Honestly ...that winter road clip...that's a REALLY good winter day to be honest!
I know right
I agree you can still some bits of the road and it was not snowing
@@Travelersun-- that is actually not bad at all that winter road pic, have driven on way worse than that , many times
those plaid shirts are actualy warm, comfortable, durable and relatively inexpensive , I have mine
Gals wear them too - lol
$20 thick plaid work jacket. GT special.
Flannel is the best! I have several versions of plaid in different weights! 😂
@@CoffieBunniesame hahah😂
They’re called “Newfie tuxedos” 😀
My Nova Scotian daughter was mocked by her Boston accent classmates in Massachusetts for her pronunciations of bagel and about lol. The people who say 'pak the cah" for "park the car" told her that about is not pronounced the same as the oat in oatmeal and outside does not have the same sound as oatmeal. It gave her quite a chuckle.
I find it funny how Americans hear 'aboot' because if you ask a Canadian to say the two words back to back, there is a distinct difference. But if you hear a southern 'abayout', it suddenly makes sense how it hits their ear.
Honestly as a Canadian I've never seen bagged milk
@jenhunnie5898 It's in certain provinces like Ontario
The first picture is normal winter driving weather. I’ve driven in worse.
Most of us have
@@joeyjojojrshabbadoo normal winter time
have driven in way worse than that LOL.
Looks like a light drive to me - way worse during a snowstorm with barely any visibility where you rely on the hazards lights of the guy in front of you to judge how close/if youre still on the road. Snowplow trucks are a gift from the heavens at that moment.
We also play follow the leader 😂
Canada Hockey woman’s team won Olympic gold over the USA and that was our team leader. USA disrespected our flag.
My cousin Jimmy Midgley was one of the coaches
I checked several news articles about that; they all say it was debunked. The US team did not disrespect the canadian flag, apparently...
@@jadzia911 Good to know! Usually we have a great relationship with the USA!
We won a lot of games during the Winter Olympics against the US...
No they didn't. The coach later admitted he lied to motivate the team
The Canadian flag sound bite, that’s Hayley Wickenheiser she was the captain of our women’s hockey hockey team for a many years. She was great, a true icon. She holds six silver medals at the world championships, 7 golds, and has competed at 5 Olympic Games and medaled at all of them (1 silver, 4 gold).
She became a doctor and worked in a hospital through the pandemic. I have so much respect for her.
@@TheCanadiangirl4 I mean if that’s the bar for respect lol. I finished nursing school in May of 2020 😂. But for real she’s great and deserves every bit of respect
Now she is a Doctor! Very educated hockey player. 👏👏👏
It's crazy when he says "pick an imaginary lane". If you're the first person down the road, YOU are making the lane for everyone else before the plows go down.
Nope it snows so intensely there’s no making a lane lol imagine not many people on the road while the snow is coming down faster the. Your wipers can keep up lol you have to literally make your own lane. You can’t see a vehicle in front of you much less tire tracks. I got caught in one storm usually I’d a 2 hour drive it took me 6.
@@bluj5917 obviously I'm talking about when it's a fresh snow but not currently snowing....... Overnight snowstorm and being the first one down my road at 5am. You make the tracks.
Ploughs
@@sarahmitchell821 Plow is the preferred spelling in North America, both Canada and the USA.
@@majorphysics3669 That's the first thing (American company) Google says so that must be true
When my sister was working in Boston, one of her patients' family members did the "oh Canadian? I have family in Canada". Of course my sister does the usual "it's a big place" speech. Turns out his Canadian family member married our aunt.
😳 😆
The sad part about this is that Tyler has been doing these videos for over two years... He has "learned" repeatedly that Canada is the second largest country on Earth. Yet he still thinks that the entire country has the same weather and climate.
@@damonx6109…and the same accent…😂
@damonx6109 he's doing it deliberately so more people will comment to correct him. I'm sure he remembers most of the stuff he learns. Lots of channels do this, as annoying as it is
Linx are wild and that one had to be injured or raised with humans.
I'm from Quebec and I'm impressed with how you pronounced poutine you said it better than most Canadians
an Anglophone from Quebec I pronounce it Putin when I am feeling saucy
@@XXhouchXX hahaha love this!!!
That women hockey player is Haley Wickinheiser. She's the greatest female hockey player ever. Four gold medals to her name
And from my province of Saskatchewan. My Aunt knows her, lives in Shaunavon, Hayley's hometown.
Marie phillip poulin getting some vote too now tho
@@yanquirGood to know.
Thanks I will google
And she is A GAWD DAMN CANADIAN LEGEND!!!
☝️
In Canada. we got rid of the penny because it cost 1.6 cents to make 1 penny!
Rofl I remember that 😂 People lost their shit over that.
"we have a sentimental attachment to our pennies". no pun intended.
We didn't get rid of it because of the cost. For 1.6 cents it's in circulation and reusable for 30 years. We got rid of it because it became pointless. There was no longer anything to use it for. With inflation and the depreciation of our money even penny candies are now 5-10 cents.
Most countries have gotten rid of pennies... John Oliver did a whole segment on it. The US keeps the penny because the cobalt industry lobbies the government to keep it that way.
@@kontiuka Well it makes sense, when you get down to brass tacks.
I live in a pretty big city and we have a national park just 30 minutes from town where you are 100% guaranteed to see bison/buffalo. If you don't see any from the highway, the park has a loop of road where you can drive among the wild bison like an African safari park. DO NOT get out of your car.
Calgary? Lol
@@OctaviaSimpson-f3o Edmonton actually! Elk Island Park is right outside the city and well worth a visit. Though it wouldn't surprise me if there was something similar in the Calgary area.
Hey now! We're neighbors then because I'm also in Edmonton. I didn't realize Elk Island was a national park. I thought it was provincial. I'll have to check it out next time I head out that way heading to Elk Point or Vegreville
@@lauriepenner350 I personally have never experienced anything with the bison but one time I was heading through Jasper and right where you turn off the highway to go into the town there was this big ass moose; like this guy was massive, just sitting there chilling in the middle of the road. Needless to say, I sat there and patiently waited for him to finish going about his moose business
@@OctaviaSimpson-f3o Good choice. You do not f around with a moose and his moose business.
"It's cute and cuddly" 🤣 Tyler nooo it basically just a winter Bobcat, every canada is amazed he's holding 1 not being ripped apart.
well this one is a tiny baby, lynx kitten can be hand reared if found in the wild alone early enough
Yeah bobcats are not to be F*ed with..
Danger floof and murder mittens 😅
If I ever find one in the wild. Im keeping it. It can just keep my hand
I wonder if this lynx was filmed at a zoo or sanctuary. They’re usually pretty solitary and avoid people. They don’t generally attack like a cougar/mountain lion might, but they’re still wild animals so I don’t know how he’s cuddling it, if it’s in the wild.
Hayley Wickenheiser aka Wick, is one of the greatest hockey players in the history of the game. She played on Team Canada for 23 years Starting at the age of 15. She played for a Swedish men's team for several seasons and now works as Assistant GM for The Maple Laughs (sorry habit, the Maple Leafs). Not only is she a hockey phenom, she and her husband started a family while she completed her studies to become a physician! She has 6 Olympics behind her as an athlete. She won 4 gold and one silver medal in women's hockey and participated in the Summer Games in Softball. She has been inducted into several sports halls of fame AND holds the Order of Canada.
In one word, Hayley and her talent and achievements leave others AWESTRUCK
Growing up, we used to call them the Toronto Make Me Laughs. LOL
Maybe one of the best female players. Probably ranked in the hundreds if you included men. Figures she works for the leafs
That first clip is actually a very well cleared road in the winter time. Chefs kiss
I am a retired Canadian soldier who had served for 23 years, and that was the way I, and the members of my unit were treated. Even if you were called to see the Commanding Officer (CO), you were spoken to in a calm and corrective manner. That is why I served for 23 years, and I'd do it all over again if I could.
Instead of screaming at you they will talk to you in a firm voice. Some may see it as being soft but I don’t think it is.
Thank you for your service ❤ @@ryans413
As a 22 year veteran, I can attest that facing an NCO's steely glare, and a level, controlled, firm voice is one of the most frightening experiences one can experience.
Thank you for your service to all us Canadians! We do appreciate our military servicemen and women. Again, thank you.
I thank you very much for the support, I wear my retirement pin on my hat, and sometimes when I go to places like Walmart even though I have been retired since 2009, they still say "thank you for your service ". It always makes me smile.
Dry cold is when you're cold just to the skin, while wet cold seeps deep into your bones and stays there until you're thawed by sipping a hot drink.
North Dakota and Montana literally have this same type of cold with zero humidity.
It's not like no American doesn't know what this means.
@@bubba842north Dakota must be a state that's closer to us lol
@@bubba842 - True. It must be annoying for Americans to hear when stuff like that is said, just as Canadians get annoyed when everything is compared to the US. We do share a continent after all.
Having a Wet Cold, is Living in Southwestern Ontario, we are surrounded by MOST of the Great Lakes. Yes, it's a damp cold that goes down to the bones, especially when it gets to -- 15 to--20 C
@@Dopinders_Taxi Yes, North Dakota is just below the Province of Manitoba. You'd get some good Cold Artic wind chill.
CAnadian here: We can't see lanes at all in winter, we just follow the tire tracks of whoever came before. It's like being a train, but the tracks aren't really holding you in place. BUT you have to be extra careful because those tracks are where most of the ice forms~!
I was kind of impressed that you knew Terry Fox. Respect.
We watched a whole documentary on him like a year ago
His name has made it to Scotland and England as well
he actually watched the whole documentary about him
as a Canadian i can confirm price gets rounded up or down if you pay with cash. its normal amount if you pay with card.
...pennies. 98 cents is a buck...97 cents is 95.
I had a great chuckle at Tyler’s reaction to the snowy roads. I lived in Colorado Springs for 3 yrs with the Canadian military. In the winter time all 3 years my family and I wore sneakers, that’s how much snow didn’t exist. One day we were driving on the highway on a snowy day and almost crashed into metal bars the crossed over in the middle of the highway. We were not expecting that. My hubby and I looked at each other and cracked up laughing. We laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. They actually closed off highways for some flurries. We could see the lines on the highway. Gotta love it!
A WARNING IF you plan on "masquerading" as a Canadian IN Europe DO NOT DO IT!!!. I have heard that a few, Americans did this and they were severely hurt! They (Europeans) did NOT like to find out that they were being lied too. Just be yourself!
It's typically pointless too. I've heard Europeans explain how they can spot an American tourist easily, and majority of the list were things I've never seen a Canadian do. So they could probably see right through it before the American even revealed themselves
Plus if you wear your American flag and act nicely and politely you might change the image Europeans have of Americans.
Normal winter driving. You can still see the other vehicles ahead of you, so you are still fine.
For winter driving I have been taught to "stay between the telephone poles & to the right of any lights coming towards you."
That linx was a ɓaby
A full size on can bring down a dear. When out walking saw the paw prints of a lynx stocking a deer.
Just try to pet an adult lynx in the wild, it would be a good video, though. I have had a few in my backyard over the years, and they are not sociable or tame.
@dawnelder9046 you don't mess with those murder mittens
@@peterwolf4157 Sssssssssssshhhhhhhh, let him go make friends with them! Of course, a video needs to be taken for reasons....
Lynx are wild animals of the feline variety. This was a small kitten. An adults paws are at least as big as your hands with lovely sharp claws. Don't mess with them.
For a friend of mine who lives in Kentucky, roads like that would be the worst thing that could ever happen, a state of emergency, the closing of roads and highways. For me, that's just Tuesday.
Exactly. But I'm pretty sure Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire etc... have those exact condition, probably worst in the New Hampshire White Mountains.
Honestly it would be the same in Toronto. Whenever we get a few centimetres of snow it seems everyone freaks out these days, schools are closed, businesses close early its wild. It wasnt always like this... i remember lots of snow growing up in Toronto. Last winter we got like two snow falls.
We were driving to Florida (from Ontario) one December. We stopped overnight in Atlanta. In the morning the highway was a sheet of ice. We were the only car on the road for 100 miles.
That sounds hilarious 😂. I have driven so many times in snow storms, up & down steep & winding roads. They would be panic stricken.😂😂
Burnaby is a city outside of Vancouver. It might be part of the greater Vancouver area but is its own thing. It would likely piss someone from Vancouver off for someone to think that Burnaby was actually Vancouver 😂
ADVISEMENT: Do NOT Attempt to hold a wild Lynx xD
We do what we fucking want? But yeah okay thanks for the advice probably gonna do it anyways. -A canadian.
@@marie-louiseroy7519 - A Canadian too
@@marie-louiseroy7519good it's best to get rid of the weakest of the herd as quickly as possible. Enjoy your two second petting session.
I remember the Hayley Wickenheiser moment when she said about the flag on the floor, it was after Canada beat the US in the 2002 Olympics. We won both the Men's and Women's Gold in hockey that year, and both times we faced the US for the gold on US soil. We were insulted as a country by that incident but proud of our teams. The Canadian Men's team won gold in the Olympics for hockey for the first time in 50 years.
The Referee in the Women's Game was from the U.S. and was blatantly calling false penalties against us (the Canadians). She never reffed an International game again. 2002 was the year of the Lucky Loonie when the Yanks called on a Canadian to make their ice. He put a loonie and a quarter or dime under centre ice - we won both games.
The men's coach instructed his players to, "Get out there and play like girls!" True Story
@@brendamiller5785my cousin Jimmy Midgley was a couch for women's hockey, men's hockey and juniors...he still coaches today...
They were glorious moments when both teams won. I remember I was at work when the second on took it and our whole office was cheering. 😊
I believe the men's team went undeafted that year. Mario lemeuix was the captain.
1:09 that is what the roads look like when they look clear
No, you can’t usually hold a Lynx in your arms. They’re wild animals. They don’t make suitable pets- they need a great deal of room to roam, and become very unhappy (and destructive) indoors. I assume that this is a rescued cat, cared for in a special facility for wildlife rehab.
I love that you've become so knowledgeable that you instantly recognized Terry Fox!
That made me so happy too!
Same! 😊
Hayley Wicenheiser 4:09 this was from the gold medal women's hockey game, I wanna say 2010, she's an Canadian legend btw
A Canadian Lynx is a bigger cousin to the Bobcat. This one looked like a young one.
He doesn't know what a bobcat is either... You could show this guy a cow and he would be like "Wow!! We don't have anything like this in America!!"
@@damonx6109 Thing is Bobcats (aka Mountain lions) have a huge population in the US, especially in places like Colorado and the southern states.
@scottbreon9448 bobcats and mountain lions are different animals. Mountain lions are also called cougars or pumas. They are larger, are a sandy color and have a long tail. Bob cats are smaller, are colored more gray and brown and have a short, or "bobbed" tail hense the common name "bobcat".
1) Yes, "pick an imaginary lane" is very much a Canadian pastime in the winter.
2) Yeah, the red plaid thing is a stereotype for a reason.
3) Hayley Wickenheiser is a Canadian legend. 😈And, yeah, the American team got a lot of flack for that unsportsmanlike bull.
4) Canadian lynx. Beautiful kitties! Often mistaken for bobcats, though they are closely related.
5) I remember bagged milk from my childhood, but it's mostly relegated to Eastern Canada, now.
6) "Lever" has multiple meanings in Canada, depending on regional dialect and context, but with the same pronunciation. Examples: "Pull the lever, will ya?" "We can lever this under the car." "Oh, Jesus, Mick! She's cheated on you 8 times! Just lever!" 😇
7) I've actually encountered the "Do you know (insert name here)?", but from an Australian, and he was corrected by an American. 😂
8) The main reason we got rid of pennies is that it cost the Canadian Mint $0.02 for every penny made. When they finally did get rid of it, I know a lot of people (myself included) whose opinion was _"FINALLY!"_
9) Oh, yeah! Check out that beautiful beast! From a distance. Catch one in a bad mood and they will fuck you up! And, depending on where you are, yeah, that's pretty normal. More common are moose.
10) In fairness, most Canadians don't think about Ottawa much at all. 😉
11) Vancouver Island is beautiful, definitely. But, as a BC Boy™ born and raised, I'm kind of biased in that regard. At least I'm willing to admit it.
12) I agree with everything she said. Especially the part about saying you visited Vancouver once and describing Burnaby. 😂😂😂 And having grown up on the Fraser Valley and now living pretty much dead center of BC, wet cold is definitely worse.
13) I don't know how exaggerated the US military thing is these days, but, from numerous friends in the Canadian Armed Forces, that's a fairly common situation.
Don't normally do comments this long, but I like your Canadian videos and I was in a bit of a mood tonight. 😇
As a fellow fraser valley canadian: thanks for saying it so i don't gotta
@@JBlouinMusicWhat pay of the Valley, if you don't mind my asking.
Dry cold is more dangerous, but wet cold definitely feels worse.
Heard a joke years ago. In Georgia there was a sprinkling of snow and the highways were jammed with accidents. The reporter was standing at the side of the road reporting it and one car whizzed by. The reporter says “There foes the Canadian”.
Not seeing the lane lines is the easy part, not seeing more than 20 feet ahead in a blizzard is the hard part. Does look cool though, driving a dark highway in heavy snow at night looks like you're traveling at warp speed.
And not seeing where the road ends and the ditch starts is the scary part
Hailey's hockey quote should be the next Canadian Heritage Minute.
Sooo hey! Canadian here 👋🏻 for the accent thing, it is true that some Canadians pronounce certain words pretty stereotypically, but it’s a big country guys, we have different accents in different parts of Canada just like the states have different accents in different states
Things are rarely cancelled in Canada due to the weather.
Yeah! I remember once we had a snow day in MTL, meanwhile Burlington VT. practically had to call out their national guard because they were snowed in, lol.
I grew up in Saskatchewan and NEVER once missed a school day because of weather. And we weren't bussed back then.
I worked in Calgary at a school. The city NEVER cancelled school. They do for rural schools.
In high school the only "snow day" I got was when the heating in the school was out. But because I didn't know the school was closed, I still walked in thigh high snow. Then had to turn around and walk back home 😂 I live in Southern Ontario close to a US border 😂
I don't know anymore, people are getting soft. I live in Southeastern Ontario and everything seems to get canceled especially school now. When I was a child I only remember 1 snow day and that was because it was too deep to walk.
"Am I on the Road?" is our 3rd national sport
That was a young Lynx. They are white black and grey, during some seasons, and are spotted with gold or tan fur during the summer. They have very wide feet long legs and a smallish body. They can leap over 14ft. They go after smaller animals rabbit marmots, prairie dogs, beaver and birds, etc
Lynx roam the wild, many in western Canada, but they roam up along the edge of arctic tundra.
Wet cold is effing cold..i grew up in Manitoba and moved to Vancouver Island in my 40’s. The wet cold at minus 10 feels like a inland minus 20.
Vancouver Island is warm compared to Nova Scotia. Spent some time in Alberta and -10 in here in Nova Scotia was more like -30 in dry cold Alberta.
The choices are "bone-freezing cold" and "chaffing-everything cold".
true xD and i feel the same for hot days, 30-40 celsius with humidity feels like hell
ive heard people from desert countries say thats nothing we have 50s sometimes then they say its terrible on a canadian hot summer day when they live it😆
@@marikroyals7111 mostly mild winters and cool (27c ish) summers yes.
That’s just a nice winter drive where I grew up 😂😂.
At that point the lanes are the tire marks and they’re usually nowhere near the actual lane
AHHHH Tyler, all these years later and your content is still as funny and refreshing as always, never change bro! And i hope someone sponsors you a trip up here because i think newfies would totally blow your mind xD
About the pronouncing Toronto as “Toronto”. People from Toronto pronounce it as “Torono” the second T is effectively silent
I also hear a lot of people between Kingston and belleville pronounce it toronta 😂
Toronto= Tranna
Battery=Bah-ree
Pontiac Parisian Landau Brougham=Paneeak Paraseen Landow Braaam
Toyota=Teeoda
Hyundai=Hundee
I think the pronunciation clip was from Ontario (the capital of Canada), in Alta and BC we don't talk that way.
@@brendamiller5785Not from the Atlantic provinces either.
Tranna
That is Dr. Hayley Wickenheiser (the greatest female hockey player) at the 2002 Winter Olympics.
When I saw the clip, I thought it was from the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, but your probably right. It was quite a while ago.
@@gopherlyn Definitely '02 after Canada got only a silver at Nagano.
A female doctor hockey player? Been a Canadian my whole life of nearly 34 years and never heard of her.
Maybe Google her name...her accomplishments are too many to list here ..
The best player is Marie Philippe poulin
I don't drive anymore, but Canadians drive in snow as well as any other country with no snow! It's a talent that is bred into you naturally. No road conditions ever stop us! Thank you for all your efforts in creating these videos. With love, and respect. Wes Sept
Unless you're from Vancouver
Lol
I always chuckle and shake my head when you say stuff about winter wouldn't happen in the u.s. 😄
You always forget that *'most'* of the *northern* states get the exact same winter conditions 😆
As someone with very arthritic hands, I hope they never do away with bagged milk. Trying to open carton milk is extremely difficult and bagged milk is simple for people like me. 👍
I switched to cartons since I don't drink as much milk now but I do miss the bags. So much easier to use overall. I remember the jugs from when I was a kid and even then I didn't like them. Very heavy and always had a rotten milk smell around the top.
Bagged dairy is mostly a thing in eastern canada
Get grains and seed oils out of your diet.
@@condortheboss
I’m in Ontario. Full on bagged milk here. 👍🏼
I have not seen it in years! From BC. I thought it was extinct.
That winter drive is nothing, the worst is when it’s like someone throws a white blanket over your windshield and you can’t tell if on the road or the shoulder…
Oh that is just a little snow. Often you cannot see the road at all.
I agree
2:51 Those jackets are fairly light and *CRAZY* warm. Most Canadians love 'em.
Most Canadians do not wear lumber jackets.

Yes...but don't tell anyone!!
I love our Island❤ cheers Victoria❤
...but have you been to Europe, USA, Asia or elsewhere?
Lived there for 8 months as a kid and we had winter snow for a week due to a cold front turning the rain to snow (I'm Nova Scotian). After that week back to rain, I remember everyone being surprised and excited about the snow, but to me it was normal.

as a french canadian the american accent in this clip sounds more we talk here
anyway im sure there are so many different accents in both countries
Hi Tyler. Your favourite Albertan here. At 3:15... that girl is Hayley Wickenheiser, the absolute monster of female hockey players in Canada. Captain of Team Canada for possibly as long as a decade. I'm sorry I can't remember which tournament that was from, but apparently it has been proven that what Haley said was true. The American team, in probably nothing more than a "fun filled, and patriotic display in the privacy of their own locker room" did indeed trample on the Canadian flag. We understand that it wasn't really a vicious or hateful display, but more of a "Let's go girls" kind of thing. But to trample on the flag of our neighbour is something that Canadians would never even contemplate. So please forgive Hayley for lashing out with that one sentence... but I think she had a valid reason for it. 😂 Lots of love from AB. 💗
My husband and I call fresh snow driving “whose lane is it anyway?” Hahaha
Hey Tyler, in the winter, drive in the tire tracks of other cars! (during snow storm)! LOL>
The tire tracks are effectively the lanes in winter. Is "fun" driving early enough that you're the ones making those tracks.
Till you find that you followed the path the leads to a crashed car in the ditch then you join them.
@@ItApproaches my thoughts exactly
Don't rely on that. That's the find the black ice game.
The picture of winter driving is pretty tame. I have driven in a storm where the road was only two lanes with no shoulder. The only way I could tell i was on the road was that there was a line of stubble on the edge of the road. The road was completely white, the ditch was white, the surroundings were white because of the snow and wind. Following that line of stubble was the only way I stayed on the road. It took me 2.5 hours to drive a distance that usually took just over an hour. Talk about white knuckle.
A baby Canadian linx has the paws of a full grown black bear.
Lynx.
Aren’t they super cute! ❤
arent they also the biggest of the lynx family? these guys are made though to survive our winters, also super stealthy we never see them, some of them can take down adult deers
Thats how we all say "about." Ive never heard "aboot" unless it was being done delibetately and ironically.
Tyler, when they had the awful freeze-up a few years ago in Texas, I told a woman in a FB group the proper way to brake, if she starts to slide....she got back to me a few days later thanking me profusely, because she'd had to use the technique (gently pump brakes as opposed to just slamming them on) and it saved her.
Can we settle this once and for all? Maybe Newfoundlanders say "aboot" but no one else in Canada does!
Newfoundlanders don't say aboot.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Newfoundland don't say aboot, that's more of a prairies thing
@@tinagleason7111 Prairie girl here - we don’t say aboot here either!
Nova Scotian here,we don’t say aboot but pronounce it aboat!
I was born on Vancouver Island. My father worked for a Logging Company and graded logging roads or in the winter plowed them. He wore a red plaid shirt to work, we just called it his work shirt. In Northern BC or the prairies you have dry cold, which does not feel as cold, but here in lower part of BC we have the wet cold, which makes it feels a lot colder.
It rains up here in Northern BC now. We indeed get a bit of both. Mind you last "winter" never came. We kept waiting for Cariboo weather and it was Spring like most of the time. The HWY 97 is a death trap. Always fatalities
American from Maine here--that first TikTok is just another day from November to May in Maine. Yeah, we dress in flannel, too.
Y'all walked on our flag on the way out of the locker room, and we kicked your ass.
That was debunked. The coach admitted to saying that to pump up the team.
It really happened
Alberta is the Texas of Canada.
And BC is the California. hahaha !!
No!!!!! No gun crasies in Alberta. Nicer people in Alberta.
You should see what it's like at the end of the winter season and people take their snow tires off too early lol
The pick a lane and just go with it is a top notch game ! 10/10 recommend in winter
Yeah, I like the game, "Am I on the road?"
@@Salicat99 exactly but then you say to yourself ”the grass is frozen I’ll be fine“😂😂😅
@@mattjordane1901 What is a bit of ice to Canadians?
@@Salicat99 it’s just as easy as putting ice in your cup of water
The red plaid is not just for men, I love mine
Me too!
Red plaid,blue jeans and high heels!
I've got a few in a variety of colours. My first one was red, but I've got a blue one and a green one. They are so warm and comfy.
I have also played “am I still on the road at my cabin/ lake
THERE IS NO CANADA ACCENT. Our country is the second largest by landmass on the planet. Do you really think there is ONE accent for a country this wide? I live in Hamilton's outskirts. I sound nothing like someone from Toronto, which is just across the lake from us. SOOOO many accents.
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT! I hope Tyler reads your comment, because Canada has many differences in pronunciation from west coast to east coast, just like the USA has differences, & don't even try to pronounce some words from Newfoundland!
Arguably. There is a Canadian accent just like there’s an English accent.
Not all English people have the same accent, people from Dublin will sound a bit different from somebody is Britain. There are sub categories of accents. A big country just means many more sub categories of a Canadian accent.
Dublin is in Ireland not Britain! Not even remotely the same accent.
That's because you can't senc your own accent 😂
I live in rural Stoney Creek. There are many more accents in America, than Canada.
most americans also have not heard of the war of 1812, where we conquered the whitehouse then left after the USA tried to invade.
We captured the Brick House. The burned out shell was painted white to hide the soot. That was after Dolly Madison went running down Pennsylvania Avenue in her night clothes.
As a French-Canadian, the red-plaid is mostly a coincidence thing. We're just used to warmer clothing and it just so happens that for forest work (which we do have lots of thanks to all the forests we have.) there's not much else that keeps us heated as nicely whilst being this durable, but you'll often see people nowadays with more modern winter clothing. (Nowadays for most work environment, you'll see either winter suits depending on the job (mechanics compared lumberjack for example) or general winter clothing with retro-reflective materials since it's a lot easier to spot someone that way and the modern clothing keeps the heat much better :P )
Also, one of the reason of the red-plaid, it does make it a lot easier to see against the pure white snow during either day or night since it's such an easily recognizable pattern and set of colors :)
Hopefully this helps a little in understanding this phenomena more :)
Sometimes the winter driving game isn't so much 'pick an imaginary lane', as it is 'are we on the road?' Thank the lord for rumble strips along the edges. 😂
As someone who grew up in a "dry cold" region of Canada, who moved in a "wet cold" region once an adult... I much prefer dry cold and find it more tolerable.
*As a Canadian trucker of many decades, these are 100% accurate clips. The create your own lane thing is one of the worst issues. People end up in the ditch often. And, NO!! Canadians are NOT good or skilled drivers. There is a ton of ignorance and false confidence that plagues Canadian drivers.*
He needs to watch canadas worst driver
@@ladygray6081 I stopped watching when they did a Quebec version of the show. Too close to home. I might cross one of them lol
I drive slow so that I arrive alive.
Many times I've been on the road before the snowplows have been out, and then the game becomes "am I still on the road?". Those rumble strips on both sides come in very handy at times like that👍
The hockey clip was from the Olympics in Salt Lake City I think.
A lynx is similar to a bobcat. And Mittens there is a 35-odd pound fluffy ball off death that could slash you to ribbons. They are not cuddly and DO NOT EVER try that in the wild.
Yes! The rumble strips have kept me on the road many times in a blizzard.
Plaid of any sort is very popular once winter clothing hits the racks. Pretty much every year.
Wet cold / dry cold refers to humidity and yes there is a difference. 'Wet cold' is much colder and more difficult to dress for.
My current theory is wear a windbreaker for dry cold, and pure wool for wet cold
Tyler I give you credit for taking the time to learn about our country, good on ya!
If you think those winter roads ate scary go more up north where even the snow plows have issues.
It's been a decade since the Royal Canadian Mint discontinued pennies, and one collector says their novelty value hasn't suddenly skyrocketed. The Canadian penny was a part of the monetary system for more than 160 years before they stopped being made on Feb. 4, 2013.
"Pick A Lane And Go!" is not just during the snow in Winter. Where I live it pours rain a lot and at night the painted lines all but disappear in some places because no one got the "Hey! They make paint that glows!" nemo.
From time to time I might have to stay late at work and leave once it gets dark. If there is a light drizzle, the road markings become invisible to me. All the light from headlights and streetlamps reflects off the water and makes it very hard to see the painted lines or even makes me see them where they aren't.
@@przemekkozlowski7835 So, I live in BC, most of my life, except for a few yrs I lived in Ontario (T.O.) in my 20s. Not everywhere, but in a lot of places there I noticed the painted lines on the roads GLOWED very brightly in the dark, even in the rain or snow, unless it was a really good snow dumping.
If THEY had that paint......in the NiNeTiEs...🤷
I just don't get why they can shoot crap into outer space but not make road markings visible in all possible conditions across Canada.
In some countries the roads are heated so the snow melts off of them straight away.
I'd chip in a toonie or two to make that a reality here.😁
Ya hate the glare ..I always wondered why they don't use the better reflective paint you can see for miles!!
@@parentrap I don't know how true it is but the reason I was told we don't have proper reflective paint here in BC was due to environmental concerns. I just remember thinking "of course that's the reason. F-ing idiots"
@@parentrap Exactly!!
I once forgot to change my tires two months into winter so I’ve learned how to drive without traction. Helps when our roads are just ice in the winter. Also, when your roads are just ice the game quickly becomes “where the hell is the road” rather than “where is my lane”. I’ve gotten my car stuck in 6 ft of snow because I couldn’t tell the difference between the ice road and the ditch. It was all just white and I had to take a guess. Had to get a tractor to dig it out lol.
Aaaaaand we drive in this during all our xmas travels!!! With packed cars with gifts, kids and sometimes our dog!
First day of snow before the plows are out, there are a lot of accidents, to the point where I think all roads should be closed to anything but emergency vehicles for 24 hours, lol. Then after. 300+ collisions in the city on day 1, people seem to remember they need to slow down, leave space, etc. 😮
Its probably why we do Thanksgiving early.😂
That ''buffalo'' was actually a bison...
I had to drive out to the hospital one time during a bit of a snow storm... Spun a full 180 and then corrected myself mid spin to a 360 and kept going...
I did this in a shitty pontiac G5
This was also done on a VERY busy big multiple lane road headed towards the busiest places here but as I said snow storm so thank god nobody else was really around. Also as much as people can hate on studded tires... they can help and can potentially save lives. Having a conversation with you would be hilarious because you see very specific examples of dialects yet most people would not be able to distinguish me from America yet i'm from a place that is known for it's accent.
Yup don't turn your wheel while breaking on ice. First time I did it scared me to death. Did 180 facing on coming traffic. Put it in reverse and turned around. Pulled over in parking lane until I could get my heart rate down. Learned what not to do.
All the incompetent drivers get weeded out the first two days of snow everyone is good after that 😂😂 I genuinely laughed at the Burnaby thing.
Canadian lynx is a beautiful cat, a bobcat. Its paws are huge!
