[UTubeSucksssss]

[qqaaaqqq]

I love you my American brothers and sisters,come visit leave your guns at home.

[kuhn2442]

We're special buddies!

[hothotheat3000]

I'm American, and went to Canada for the Olympics. I was so touched by how kind everyone was. I got seriously lost and was afraid to ask for help, but when I finally did, this wonderful group of ladies not only told me where my hotel was, but made a point to walk with me to make sure I got back ok. I'll never forget that.

CANADIAN PRIDE???????? WHERE???..

[davejones63]

I have never served in the armed force's. I have many friends on both sides of the border. I Have served as a firefighter and I'm retired now. I have family that have served in one way or another, Lost in battle, Past cop's. Firefighters and friends and son's of friends that now serve in our military. We stand tall beside our American allies!!!!!! I hope you all feel the same !! May there never be another 911!!

[450creek]

This tribute is so incredibly moving. NBC played it just before the opening of the Vancouver Olympics. I get goosebumps every time I watch it. As a Canadian, I was extremely touched. Beautifully done.

[BesttBi]

Sometimes i think how glad i am to be elbow to elbow with those Awesome Canadians to the north.

[thegtmable1]

@BesttBi God bless our American friends.

[CombatSportFan]

@thegtmable1 God bless our Canadian friends. In your times of need, may they be few and far between, we shall be there for you.

[jethrodassam]

What a great tag team Canada and America makes. I love watching this video. Thank you so much for all your help with 9/11 Canada. It will never be forgotten.

[thegtmable1]

@jethrodassam As a Canadian I say God bless America. Friends forever.

[congshow]

soo glad to be canadien!

[Metaldisciple666999]

Canada is like the 51st state and America is the 11th provence. Kicken ass North American style.

[PeepTheZoobaz]

shoulda said WW1 & WW2 before.

[Mondior1]

As an American, I'm very proud and grateful to have Canada as our neighbor.

[marshja56]

I agree - we (the USA) have the best neighbor in the world. I know we can be a noisy neighbor and it must be hard to live next to us at times. But you Canadians don't even complain about it much. We sure would if it was the other way around!

[thegtmable1]

@Mondior1 As a Canadian I feel the same way about you. God bless.

[oceane1945]

I am so proud to be a Canadian,

I live almost on the Highway of Heros in Dorval, Qc

I dont think Tom Brokaw could have said it any better...Congratulations Tom...

[oceane1945]

I am so proud to be a Canadian

[aznboykicks]

every time i watch this, it gives me chills of pride and happiness. Im happy to live in this Beautiful country :). i live soo close to the border

[mejw1]

i get choked up everytime i see the highway of heroes part

[brucewalker5]

Nicely done. It is true. We are really quite an awesome people in an incredible Country.

[MuskokaLad]

Lol...you need to do more traveling. The rest of Canada is like Canada...Quebec is like being in another country all together.

[quexalcoatl]

Of course it's easier to be a 'poodle' when your not gnashing your teeth at every other dog on the planet. People are the same all over man, it's an imaginary line. And thank you too.

[heshonk]

Its funny how many Canadians are commenting and watching this video when it was meant for americans...

I am a proud Canadian

[kayak2hell]

Always interesting to see how others view us, especially our neighbours to the south. Not sure why he put so much emphasis on the Iran hostage crisis and yet made no mention of the Canada's contribution to the First World War. Curious.

[guitar241990]

@kayak2hell

Agreed. He also mentioned D-Day but never mentioned Hong Kong or Ortona or Dieppe or Somme,Vimy,Passchendaele, St Julien Kitchiners Wood. I guess it was meant to be short and to the point. Good vid anyways.

[gendarmes1100]

about time we get some recognition from the south!

[gendarmes1100]

put this in the US school curriculum!

[yannyutube]

BBC:

"Canada has become the most successful ever nation at a Winter Olympics by winning 14 gold medals to top the medals table in Vancouver."

In Europe, the medals table is ranked by number of golds rather than total medals.

[natexd45]

you guys did awesome, we almost won the hockey game, sigh.......

[CANAD14N]

damn right you want us CANADIANS on ur side, bout time someone really shows us some respect....thanks Tom Brokaw for the compliments

[calgarytech]

Fantastic video which correctly shows Canada to be an upstanding and outstanding Nation.

Such presentations can always have more content, and deserving elements will always be omitted from such a short film, but pretty damn good for 6 minutes.

[jvidswise]

Wow... I am so impressed. That was a wonderful piece. Well done! I have never been so proud of my nation.

[emperor3d]

@pcmr57 Agreed.

[wherewhywhatwhen]

Good thing i have dual Canadian and American citizinship!

[bloomsums]

Good job Mr. Brokaw and very well said, Appreciate the recognization. Life in Canada is so good we open our doors very wide to all nations..Thanks again..

[sm111391]

Terrific video Tom, I believe you captured the essence of Canada, for portrayal to the American public. Canada is truly a beautiful place to visit or call home. Politics aside, there isnt a great deal of difference between the peoples of these two great nations.

[xfugazix99]

I wasn't expecting much when I pressed play but this is a great piece. I am proud to be a Canadian.

[emperor3d]

Epic.

[mursare]

I aint even American/Canadian, but what a great video!

[cdncheffy]

Too bad the copyright gods will take this down.This is an awesome piece done by one of the great reporters of the world.. Why would they take it down? Screw NBC!

[lesliejeanmm]

Brings a tear to my eye!

Harper would say something stupid like that...but not from parliament , unless he had dropped by to pick up a pair of indoor shoes he had left there.

[frosty34a]

@lesliejeanmm Harper actually made those statements before the BC Legislature on Feb 12... Brokaw misspoke.

[JonPryce1990]

canadian parliament is still prorogued isn't it? wonder how harper addressed parliament, as stated in the last segment.. great video though.

[Aazih]

@JonPryce1990 He addressed the BC parliament, that's still running.

[krazedlunatick]

hopefully this one doesnt get taken off for a few days. great video :D
