[smackyo]

Doesn't get much better then this.

[grooshmonkey]

Don Cherry, The Hip, and Trailer Park Boys all in one place? Yep, that pretty much sums up Canada.

[markyxsparky]

gotta love how ricky picks up his smoke after it gets smacked to the wet ground

[jatarcha]

[towncarpimp99]

Gotta love how they pay with the old paper dollar and two dollar bills!

Grapes looks pissed!

Such amazing Canadiana all around!

[DarkNeckrowSilence]

Ahh the country life yes good times good times :)

[Froese54]

canadian bands are way more about the music, and not the money, yet we are still waiting for legends like the trag and rush to make it into the rock n roll hof, like seriously, abba is in there come on

[applezippometronome]

[shitcharles]

I'm gettin kinda frisky looking at Gord Downie...

[bwho]

The white cat cracks me up as they're trying to tell it off for eating their chicken. LMAO!

[stewardo]

lmao Bubbles 3:19 "What the fuck is wrong with him?"

[ssllgg11]

I could easily fuck over one bucket m'self...

[bwho]

Juicy Fruit gum is some sort of Canadian phenomenon? Huh?

[ricknogan413]

Gordon hands the Don $18. From bottom to top - $1, $5, $10, $2. The bills are from the 70's era. Ricky tries to pay for two buckets with $8 ($5, $1, $2) until Julian hands him another bill (too hard to see).

[makattak88]

This is so great! Thank you Trag and TPB! I love the old school money, chicken, beer bottles and juicy fruit! I love Canada! Fuckin EH.

[TheDaleDenton]

Proud to be a Canadian, Maritimer for that matter

[darksayese]

@jjnoye dont forget about red green even tho he isnt in this video hes canadian too lol

[blacksupra001]

[darksayese]

@blacksupra001 word

[kluutch]

@jjnoye you said it

[charlottebernard2007]

take a stick pop it in your .......the juice is gonna move ya when ya pop it in your mouth lol.....(juicy fruit theme song lol)

[daselin1991]

I do love a stick of Jucy Fruit every now and again. Love The Hip, the video, TPB. Sad that I came into them both only recently, but making up for it now.

[charlottebernard2007]

who ever said that TPB`S is not acurte is so fucked in the head wtf is wrong with you TPB`S is so acurate is fuckin scary...maybe you gotta be a poor white person in N.S to get it lmao...

[jjnoye]

Amen to that! I lived in the trailer park where they shot the first season. It's incredibly accurate.

[nightmathzombieethan]

Amen!

I grew up in NS (Now I'm in California of all places) but TPB makes me SOO homesick! It's VERY accurate! Most of the characters remind me of old friends or people I knew....

I had a lot of good times in a trailer park too, just takin it day-by-day!

[smackyo]

@nightmathzombieethan I think that's what made them so endearing to so many people is that everyone in Canada, especially small town or small city Canada grew up with or knowing guy's like the Trailer Park Boys.

It's like Alex Lifeson from Rush said "Once you get past all the profanity, the show is really about family values and having your friends and families back. They all love each other." Those seem like core Canadian qualities to me. = )

[nightmathzombieethan]

@smackyo Very nicely put, couldn't have said it better myself!

[charlottebernard2007]

too bad that 302 they stole won`t work in that nova lol...........oh well i still luv the hip and tpb`s...

[tray92]

YEEEEEEEEEAAAAA DON

[Jimytapp]

This video brings back a slew of small town Canadiana memories for me. It was such a different time and place back then. Ths is the only thing that captures the feel of late 70's early 80's for me, the drive to the liquor store, lol. Didn't steal motors though, just beer. Columbian gold was $25 a quarter too.

[steelpowerhouse]

Best fuckin' Hip song. Ever.

[hobbes937]

I'm American to the bone but I love Canada, Canadians, Tragically Hip, Trailer Park Boys,Don Cherry,Rush,the Tea Party,Toronto.............

[smackyo]

@hobbes937 Canada loves ya back = )

[TheLawfulPirate]

LOL deserthunter73 has your gear found bin laden? remember your most famous rifle in WWII was the GARAND invented by a CANADIAN.

[LucasontheAxe]

woot Canada! great song great vid!

[mbranche33]

I love Canada, The Hip, Don Cherry and The Trailor Parks Boys. What else could be better?

[That1CanadianGuy]

Amen!!!

[deserthunter73]

Canada has a military? Hey, if they ever NEED equipment, believe me, we'll give 'em the best sh*t available.

[smackyo]

@deserthunter73 Dude please that "Canada has a military?" bullshit is so old. We've got a perfectly fine military for the population of our country and we don't have to go around recruiting kids out of high school to go fight bullshit illegal wars.

Get your head out of your ass cause our military is in A-stan right now. We along with you and the Brits are the only ones there from NATO in a combat role. Go fuck your self!

[deserthunter73]

Take off, eh! I'll steamroller yeh!

[Jimytapp]

Bring back the fuckin stubbies !!!

[sublimeknight129]

1 bucket! are you f****ed in the head

Thats so funny

[jayar1818]

Don Cherry may not be everyone's "cup of tea" but he is anything but a "faggot"...he is the icing on the cake in this awesome slice of "Classic Canadian Cake"!!

He stands up for the Canadian military who are forced to risk their lives every day using antiquated equipment that should have been junked 20 years ago...

fantastic video....

[pants7]

This video just shines in canadian greatness

[shoesalesmanBundy]

fuck ya!!!

[aurlis2012]

don cherry is a faggot. tpb and hip are bomb

[adamberk07]

wait. wait. your CANADIAN??

[aurlis2012]

yeah, an awesome one at that

[adamberk07]

not doubting that, but how in the world do you think cherry's a "faggot"

[BigSilky85]

You're an ignorant moron. Don Cherry is a smart, funny and opinionated man. You may not agree with opinions, but he belongs in this classic piece of Canadiana right alongside the Hip, TPB, the stubby beer bottles and the old Canadian 20s.

He is a part of our cultural heritage, like it or not.

And how the heck is he a "faggot"? That's not even an accurate insult. Bigot maybe, chauvinist perhaps, but not a faggot.

[republikofnfld]

100% AGREED

[phicubed]

DON!

Love it already.

yeah im kinda slow... but we love you guys.. always will. always will.

bad grammer and all..

always will. we love yoooouuuuuu!!!!

[hm2222]

fully canadian

fully nova scotian.

[stu106]

totally an accurate representation of nova scotia and the maritimes hahaha "2 buckets of chikhen and a drive to the liqour store"

[adamberk07]

lol!! :D

[deserthunter73]

Oh my this is priceless. Tales from the Hip.

[shibbsy13]

the 3 best things in Canada rite here. trailer park boys= best show, the hip=best rock band, Don Cherry there to represent hockey... this music video makes me proud thats for sure

[cn854]

The HIP

Trailer Park Boys

Don Cherry

Feels fuckin' great to be a Canuck....

[coffeefish]

Best video of the year.

[wesleync]

What the fuck. This video is only at 11 thousand views. This is the best video.

[chaucy9]

DON CHERRY! the hell is Grapes doing there?!

[GoldenRider1]

TPB and The Hip, doesn't get much more canadian than that!

[coffeefish]

Love this song.

[tapper36]

Dont hate Don Cherry. He is a good man. As a matter of fact he does a hell of a lot of worthwhile work for kids dealing with poverty and illness that no one hears about because he does not wear it on his sleeve. Besides he is obviously cool if he is in this video.

[adventureskope]

oddly, the most patriotic video - ever...

[cortinabob]

I LOVE MY COUNTRY !!:D

great tv, GREAT tunes!

this video is CHAMP!

[moochdog771]

This is the greatest video ever.

[Beadbud5000]

Is not The Hip I remember

[greenguy6]

i conquer

[themasterbakerrr]

TPB, The Hip and fried chicken create the trifecta of goodness. The only thing bringing this video down is Don Cherry, and only slightly.

[ShadowSoulja]

I'd say not enough Don Cherry is bringing it down.

[adavadas]

Grapes smacked Julian!

Awesome video, awesome song. Love to the Hip.

[zoomzoomkid11]

Rush and The Hip are Bubbles favourite bands (mine too, guy's got incredible taste i guess)

[Karmakanuck]

He was in a band too.

[AugustusLeviticus]

A good song about the dangers of Bad Pussy!

well...

symbolically....of course...as coarse as a bad cat's distemper...

[revoluketion]

HAHAHAHA! that was fucking hilarious!

MY Favorites Have Long been The hip!

^american^

[Steeveriffic]

Love the stubbies at 2:57! Old school.

[UnitedSovietParty]

Ha i love it, Gord just calmly lifts the entire engine, then takes a stick of Juicy Fruit.

[120pure021]

trailer park boys woot!

[gmrss1234]

why the hate for don cherry?

[zigzag789789]

this kicks serious ass, two of my favorite things... but fuck don cherry. he shouldnt have been in this.

[vannessia]

one bucket for chicken... hahaha i love TPB and TTH... gotta love being canadain. i get to see the hip in pemberton so stoked.

[Oskerboxer]

the delivery guy look so much like don cherry

[jacklin07]

it clealy is....

[superbadlucre]

ahahah this rocks! Love TPB and the Hip

[vachief]

.. great song....terrible TV show....like most Canadian TV..LOL

[davekat]

sadly true

if Canadian TV would just BE Canadian ( like Corner Gas ) instead of a sad, sad imitation of American pop culture, maybe we'd see something good...maybe even great

[2121Bennett]

so what do you believe trailer park boys is an imitation of that is 'American pop culture?'

you know what the really sad thing is? you stupid Yankees are so full of yourselves you don't realize that Canadians are the upgraded version of yourselves.

[thegirl44]

Clearly you've never been to a trailer park in Nova Scotia.

[bulshoy]

Hey davecat I don't know where in Canada you live, but TPB is dead on as far as accuracy is concerned. Somebody clearly did their homework when writing those episodes. If you live in a big city, you wouldn't understand. Come on out to the REAL Canada and you'll see that TPB is an accurate reflection of life.

[davekat]

i wuz generalizing

TPB is not "accurate"

it's entertaining

all art aspires to the condition of music

not documentary

[bulshoy]

Trust me - this series COULD EASILY be a documentary. Perhaps you just don't hang out in certain circles.

[JamesS97]

Hip are amazing and Trailer Park Boys is the best show EVER, CANADA ROCKS!!!!!

[bennocelt]

i agree, love the Hip and TPB (and big wreck), now if onyl someone could shoot Avril lavagne and celene dion

[Quetzie21]

Obviously ONE or more of these guys likes CATS!!! they R featured in another video. Love the Hip!!!

[Steeveriffic]

Maybe. The Poets video was shot in a notorious house in Kingston where the owner owned approximately 23 gazillion cats. They fit into this one because Bubbles is such a big cat fan and there are lots of them in the park.

[Quetzie21]

I have noticed that in several videos there are cats...lots of cats. which one is bubbles??? I just got turned on to them recently. I love them!!

[Quetzie21]

Another thing I don't get is why there is this animosity between a Canadian band and American Bands?? WTF?? Good music is good music, I love these guys, what a weird argument!!!

[Steeveriffic]

A lot of Canadians enjoy making fun of the U.S. and vice-versa. But there are also lots of stupid people who mock Canadian music with the same tired jokes about Celine Dion and Bryan Adams as if there are no bad American bands. The animosity is probably mostly due to the Hip being so huge in Canada, and Americans just dumping on them because of that; nothing to do with the music.

[Steeveriffic]

Bubbles is the one with the super-thick glasses. In the show, he looks out for all the kitties in the trailer park, feeding them and such.

[davekat]

a song about celebrating and deconstructing icons at the same time

my American friends try but the whole experience is beyond them

part of being Canadian is to always be mythologizing and iconclastic,

maybe to help us overcome some kind of national guilt at being so blessed by so many natural and human virtues

in our humility is our arrogance

in our modesty is our overwhelming pride

and

in our self-deprecating humour

is our darkness

our entire nation defines post-modernism

[Chryse87]

Yes, yea, yes! Mutherfuckin' yes!

[thegirl44]

Clap, clap.

[wesleync]

The best fuckin statement I have ever read.

[adamberk07]

what you wrote just adds to my love for canada and canadians

[T45Red]

LOL I love this video.

[9wun1]
