‘Or as we’d call it here Quebec’ 😂

[@MichaelFoley64]

I must have seen John over a dozen times when I was in college, between Ryerson and Yuk-Yuks.

[@puirYorick]

I think he did this same material like 15 years ago.

[@seanfinn1046]

If you'd said 25, I'd get his evolution joke.

[@jamesstephenpeyton3305]

Gotta love John’s suits

[@JT-kr3dg]

Might be funny if he was riding a moose screaming sorry

[@tykeishecaldcleught6105]

Says there's two comments besides mine...what happened? 🤔😂 Come with the funny comments people, the clip was 🙄😴😴😒

[@stylyxmephix2365]

Well I found it funny and at first I did not understand why were all those comments so negative. The dude is simply making joke about clichés concerning the USA and Canada.. take it easy guys.

[@Henry5623]

I said it in a prior comment but this content was absolutely awful. This didn't strike me as humor but rather as someone who is bitter and angry attempting to disguise their hate filled resentful opinions about others as comedy. Any comedian that takes their content and makes it, literally, a personal attack against the audiences who comedians are dependent upon is quite literally trying to destroy their own career. I mean when fellow canucks barely give one of their own a laugh, then you KNOW the material is horrific.

@@Henry5623 The copy paste button is your specialty, isn't it?

[@nozecone]

Americans are remarkably insecure about being the greatest - it's as if they have this nagging suspicion that just maybe they AREN'T the greatest.

[@frankwagner3659]

His earlier stuff is a lot funnier than this material.

[@kinocchio]

Is this from 2016 or 2012?

[@ritakoch370]

Can I comment on that 🎉🎉🎉picture perfect 👍🏽 I’m a Brazilian just turned American Citizen just a month ago trying to voto 🎉🎉🎉but next time I’m vote Bipartisan please thanks 🙏 thanks 🙏 God for the liberty to have yours intelligent and interested 😢😢😢😢

[@Tropicool]

Weird, Dry, and Cliche

[@jopo6876]

This guy is terrible.

[@Tropical._.Depression]

this is terrible.

[@nozecone]

Not JW at his best, but ... 'terrible' is a little harsh .....

[@sjent]

Moar of this pls.

[@MCDeezNutz138]

Ah, a liberal guy making jokes based on tired cultural tropes. Kind of a unicorn.

[@Henry5623]

Damn this was awful. I understand that comedy can be subjective and very divisive in regards to what is or isn't considered to be funny. But if you want to see political humor that is actually funny, then perhaps look up Louis Black for example. This didn't strike me as humor but rather as someone who is bitter and angry attempting to disguise their hate filled resentful opinions about others as comedy. Any comedian that takes their content and makes it, literally, a personal attack against the audiences who comedians are dependent upon is quite literally trying to destroy their own career through the ultimate form of stupidity. It's as logical as punching your boss then demanding a raise. Maybe John was just having a bad day, but this is absolutely terrible. I mean when fellow canucks barely crack a smile at one of their own you know the material is horrific.

[@nozecone]

Didn't you just say this earlier in the comments? Why repeat it? Who cares?

[@nozecone]

@Katelyn Weber LOL! "Kind and polite people" who don't hesitate to tell other people "they are considered extremely ignorant and obnoxious". Yup, you nailed Canadian "politeness" all right!

[@nozecone]

@Katelyn Weber Give it a damn rest, lady. I'm Canadian - and as far as I'm concerned, you're full of BS. And, no, you don't seem particularly polite.

[@originalBongoCat]

Take it easy people; most comedy skits have much sooner expiration dates than 8 years.

[@MeiLee-t2v]

😆

[@michaelmcauley6572]

I remember John from little Sarnia Ontario. Also live in states , love it!! American and Canadian best of both worlds ! Awesome John.

[@tonyg490]

Man Canadians really have a little brother complex. We as the bigger brother don't think much about you and you'd get your teeth kicked in by the bigger kids without our protection. You as the younger brother just whine about how the bigger brother isn't as great as he thinks he is and you're actually the superior one and everybody else just fails to recognize it.

[@Tropical._.Depression]

Tony G facts

[@Tropical._.Depression]

Scott Nunn baby go wah wah

[@nozecone]

Yeah, okay ... so ... ?

[@AmarCrow]

Lol nice witty humor.

[@totallyfrozen]

Listening to Canadians who flee their socialist nation to move to America to make money-while bashing on America-is tedious. 👎🏻

[@nozecone]

Sorry.

[@harrycooper5231]

Yeah. He shouldn't be pointing out how much more personal freedom Canadians have compared to Americans

[@seanwebb605]

Watching Americans show up with aircraft carriers to "bring freedom" to oil rich nations then getting upset when anyone jokes about your own problems gets tedious.

[@seanwebb605]

Sam Kinison first got regular work and gained success working in Canada. Harold Ramis made a name for himself doing SCTV in Canada.
