I think the scene where Lisa sees all her American heroes may be a reference to the autobiographical story "On the Rainy River." In the story, the author (a young American man) is drafted into the Vietnam War, and he drives to the Canadian border to cross illegally and escape the draft. But there, he is confronted by many American characters, including Huck Finn and Abraham Lincoln. This changes his mind, and he returns to America to fight in the war.

Soft 5 Fantano reference

As a Newfoundlander:

A. Nobody here thinks of “Newfie” as a derogatory term. We call ourselves newfies and seeing politicians use it as a way to play victim is laughable.

B. People only really care about seals because they’re cute and the manner in which they’re killed (arguably barbaric). A lot of times they’re killed because of their impact on fish in the area.

I remember we debated this in class after the episode aired. we concluded that nobody really cared.

I think Australia and new Zealand give the USA and Canada a run for their money

I think the closest to earls you get in America is Cheescake Factory

Now this guy gotta react to south park

As a Swede I would like to point out that our "free" healthcare is also, in fact, only free to Swedish citizens

I grew up in Kentucky in an area where it was very rural and most of everyone was from places like Indiana, South Carolina, Virginia, and Missouri and when I was a child, my family would watch family guy together as a way of family bonding and i saw the episode where they go to the south to get away from some problem they're trying to avoid, and their depiction of the american south somewhat offended me because they did a lot of gags like the ATM being a guy in a box or the southern characters sending in civil war veterans after the family because Peter said the north won, and several other little things like that that made me feel like people from the north actually thought we were just a bunch of inbred backwoods rubes and it made me feel uncomfortable to watch the show for a bit as i felt like my entire local culture was the butt of a very rude joke. Nowadays even I'll joke about some of this stuff, but as a child who didn't have a concept of how stereotype jokes work, it kinda made me feel bad.

What is that pink elephant (I think) funko pop in the background? It’s really cool looking

Wait. Newfie is a slur? real question here from a midwestern American and Labrador Retriever enthusiast. I use Newfie to refer to Newfoundland breed of dog, quite often, as they are widely regarded to be one of the progenitor breeds of my beloved Lab. Am I going to get punched in the face by an angry aggrieved Canadian one of these days?

Americans go to the cheesecake factory when we want to feel fancy but really it's just a regular menu.

J J where were you all my life, I am Chinese. I tried so hard to understand Canada. and the white culture, if I saw you earlier, it would save me so many headaches.

I enjoyed your reactions, you actually had something to say each time and not just ‘oh’, or ‘wow’. I’d watch more, for sure.

Okay, but the Newfoundland information is simply incorrect. Seal clubbing is a practice that's only prevelant in indigenous populations. It's very widely looked down upon for anyone else to go seal clubbing.

I know this is 2 years later, but the house style is Victorian. Prob the most popular style for haunted and dollhouses.
What style are doll and haunted houses in Canada?

Earl's = Red Lobster

Curious: why do you think official bi-lingualism is bad?

bro was born transported to a trans asylum

.. actually hard to follow the video, because the sound of your voice is ten time louder than the simpson joke you're explaining so I can't hear either of them because now I'm hearless.

22:33 Could be a reference to Canadian hardcore band Protest the Hero's song "Mist"

This guy thought the U.S. and Canada were basically the same country. In the states, children basically NEVER think about Canada. Hell, 99% of adults don't think about Canada either.
