RMR: Rick at Chapman's Ice Cream

[@hckyroxs]

I used to work there and I hated my job mostly because it's factory work, but I can say first hand that it's a great family running it. Have a lot of respect for them because they could have moved to Toronto or somewhere else after the factory burned and reopened there and lowered wages and such. Markdale is a small town of just over 1000 people and only stays populated today because of Chapmans employment, so Chapmans saved the town of Markdale by staying there.

[@СлаваУкраїні-с3л]

Actually no they couldn't. Chapmans ice cream wouldn't get off the ground in the city like they do out in the rural community area. Chapmans has the benefit of ruling with an iron fist when it comes to being one of the few only big employers in the area that has one of the highest turnover rates too cause they know they'll find someone else easy enough when anyone can do the job. The city nonetheless most want union and chapmans dont want that. many other benefits chapmans dont provide which makes it easier for them to stay in Markdale.

[@stacybuchkowsky7068]

Want to thank you working there ..have great day

[@Rafin889]

@@СлаваУкраїні-с3л not true, it would be much more successful in the city. They have so much success in rural areas, the city would be 4x more.

[@TwistedVR409]

I lasted 6 hours there😂 and I work at Mennonite shops

[@oct810]

Chapman family sure knows how to treat their workers, paid their workers when rebuilding their plant. The best ice cream in the world.

[@camerond8176]

I will only buy Chapman's Ice cream for this very reason..................I will always support this business model.

[@JK-tq4qf]

And during the Pandemic when employers were giving temporary wage increases to employees for working in 'high risk' Chapman's told the employees that they were all keeping their wage increases permanently.

[@MrHabs1993]

Canadian Made, Delicious, Charitable and they treat their employee's with dignity and respect. Absolutely first class. Only Ice Cream i'm buying

[@katgyrldotca]

and on top of all that it's the most affordable ice cream of all the brands!

[@katgyrldotca]

omg lol, you're hilarious! we bought a carton of plain chocolate last night and i left it on the counter to soften, but forgot it for an hour and it was fully melted, just a carton of sweet creamy soup. everyone was so mad at me, ugh. we've been having a major sundae craving at my house all winter, we've never bought so much ice cream. besides Chapman's, we're also loving President's Choice, tho' it's much more expensive. the pumpkin pie flavour, yum!

[@matthewschincariol4619]

Tracy Graham just be happy it wasn’t still in ice cream form with oil coming out 😁🤢

[@Carlg26]

Family Run .. CANADIAN ICE CREAM .. Cares about their employee's .. I love CANADA! This was a tasty film all around!

[@cheena1ca]

This is one great company - with absolutely delicious products! I've been a fan of Chapman's for years and years. After their devastating fire, and the way they 1) treated their employees and 2) have stayed totally Canadian, I love 'em even more! These are real true Canadians. I push their products all the time, b/c they are great and also b/c they show the real Canadian spirit. :-) May you triple your business and never sell out!!

[@deborahruthtrotter2154]

I can appreciate the mindset of a company that went out of their way to make sure their employees wouldn't miss paycheques when their place burnt down. Used to have this brand often when I was a young tyke living in Ont.

[@kellygervais3440]

What an adorable lady she is, I love her way of thinking!

[@LiamCallanMusic]

This is my favourite ice-cream company. They talk about the fire at 4:30 and show what a wonderful family they are. The other thing they don't talk about (though I wish they did) is that they have a nut-free line of ice-cream for people like me, nut-anaphylactics. It's one of the few ice-creams in the world that I can eat without fear of my throat closing. Thanks Chapmans.

[@OhBoysPaintball]

If only all large Canadian businesses could be this good.

[@kellibuckley212]

I love the peanut-free line. My 7 yr old can enjoy ice cream thanks to Chapman's. All others are "may contain" at least in our grocery store.

[@gardenlily123]

I love blueberries as much as I love Rick Mercer, so I bought that ice cream in a flash, and wasn't disappointed. Chapman's also makes some amazing frozen yogurt.

[@txfotog]

Best ending EVER! I need to get up there and try some Chapman's!

[@beckywiebe9085]

What a great statement on Canadians and our "sticktoitveness"! Chapman's is a favorite in our home! Way to go Chapman's!!! "It's like Winnipeg in here!"

[@Marvcohen]

How about MANUFACTURED IN CANADA ?

[@erocicTheGreat]

Such a great Canadian company!

[@zgriffinwonderland5707]

6:23 " Steven Harper with tears . LOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Lvlaple4Ever]

Been buying Chapman's ice cream since I was a kid. Tastier than Haagen Dazs for about the same price but 4 times the amount!

[@cindeecourtney8170]

Way to go!! Love Chapman's.

[@carolineroellinghoff377]

one of the only places that make nut free ice creem

[@thelongslowgoodbye]

I'm actually surprised how well Chapman's bounced back and how Rick's BlackBerry was still working. Can't say that about iPhone!

[@KALEBMARCHANTkaleb33497]

not an iphone try black berry

[@BattlestarCanada]

Was in a ziploc baggie.

[@motobootboy]

The ice cream is delicious!! I ate it while watching the video. Yay Chapman's! Yay Rick Mercer! Yay Ice Cream!!!

[@eXpluse]

It's back! My family bought some recently and I can't wait to try it!

[@emberfall4933]

My teacher showed my foods class this video today, and I was really invested in it all was going well until the end. Oh my god the ending. It caught me so off guard I couldn’t help but burst out laughing and I had to go to the bathroom to excuse myself for a bit. Now it’s past midnight and I can’t stop fucking laughing when he climbs out absolutely covered head to toe in melted chocolate. My stomach hurts from laughing so hard. I’ve tried to get some sleep but every single time I close my eyes my mind plays back this one scene and it always without fail makes me break out into laughter. I don’t even know if this video is real or not just because of this damn ending its so uncalled for for absolutely no reason 😭

[@ChristineBroughton]

Very funny video, I love Chapman's Ice Cream,

[@Eiji475]

This was hilarious and I love Chapman's Ice Cream!

[@dixienormous3262]

What a great company!!!

[@Griffin.28]

I Love Chapmans ice cream it's so freckin good

[@jamesdelacruz2350]

Love Chapman's Ice Cream - the best in the world.

[@Kingsoupturbo]

LOL Ashley at the end NAILED mercer style "Deeelicous" hee hee

[@Sparkuus]

I wish I could have been a member or your film crew JUST for this! I'd gain 5 kg before you managed to drag me out the door! :)

[@derekverveer6058]

I wouldn't even fit through the door anymore. ;)

[@kellygervais3440]

Lol, drag and greased up.. 😉

[@suemarie6032]

The ending is priceless. LMAO

[@MYT1301]

ice-cream R&D OMG...would be faaaauuuunnn

[@mgraysonhay]

I drove by the factory just two days ago, so I found this even funnier!

[@Hanmerhack]

I think I'll go out and get some Chapmans Ice-cream.

[@PaddySnuffles]

Clay Campbell Same! Didn't know they're Canadian! :)

[@jen3800]

[@hhhh-xb9py]

[@Canuck896]

[@Menechem]

[@angelfire2085]

ohhh I so wantto visit this place ;)

[@suemarie6032]

I would think they should be able to say Made In Canada. Its processed here. LUV CHAPMAN'S!

[@tigerthecat3888]

Chapman’s Ice cream is the best 👌👌👌👌👌

[@CanadianRM4]

Ugh, I want some ice cream now!!

[@mksabourinable]

"Hope you like chocolate." Idk why but that cracked me up x)

[@harrymcandrew1447]

that got me aswell the fact ricks phone took a dive then the chap saild ''oh hope you like chocolate''

[@intellegence63smart]

Who's actually eating Chapman's ice cream right now? I am! I'm having mint chocolate chip and it is gooooood!

[@DosBear]

I had no idea. This is now going to be my go to for icecream.

[@AlexColberg]

Blueberry Pie Ice Cream. Yum!

[@stevenlee687]

I like the show!

[@vettatertiary820]

Just bought some of the ice cream to support Rick Mercer's charity. Luckily it's delicious, too! :D

[@hotelbastard7853]

Chapmans, nothing like real cream, real Tiger Tail.

[@yanzhang7044]

I will be buying champman'd for sure.

[@matthewschincariol4619]

Chapman’s I’ve Cream. Best French Vanilla. Best Cookies N’ Cream. Best everything. And it is SOO good. Plus, it’s not Breyer’s where you leave it overnight and it’s still frozen with oil oozing out of it. Move over Ben & Jerry’s. I’ve got a new favourite 🇨🇦🍦❤️

[@juliehunt795]

I saw that video also and was shocked. The Breyer's ice cream had not melted during the entire night on a table outside of the refrigerator. During this COVID fiasco I have been buying groceries for low-income families and have never purchased Breyer's ice cream, regardless of sale price. Thanks for the reminder.

[@briangregory5956]

I had Chapman's Trilogy Vanilla ice cream a week ago. WOW The absolute best.😂😅

[@Marvcohen]

Just picked up some Blueberry Pie icecream Pretty good stuff

[@rbrucerye]

Absolutely a great company I buy chapmans when I can. Anyone else love the last little bit. Who wouldn't want to do that although I have to wonder what would happen to the chocolate involved in that bit.

[@tonga741]

More company's in the world should be like tihs two thumbs up... P.s laughed so had at the end...

[@MichelleB2b]

I have Chapman's Salted Caramel Ice Cream in my freezer but I usually always have Chocolate Caramel Cup Ice Cream which is my favorite. You should try it, eh?

[@AsifAAli]

Just leave me for a day at Chapman's, and you shall see no ice-cream. 😁

[@bonniesmusic4336]

Best combo chocolate and orange pineapple.I love Chapman's and Stoney Creek too.

[@nickdawn3985]

I like how they got around that not made in Canada because of the coco crap by simply putting a maple leaf flag on their ice cream, you just know it's made here.

[@omegaseamaster1550]

Ooohh thats a selling point

[@GloriaLodge]

CHAPMAN'S IS DEEEELICIOUS!!

[@johnmckenzie4639]

To be honest, when I was a kid Chapman's was considered bargain basement ice cream. But they have improved so much they are now just as good or better than the big brands. At a MUCH MORE reasonable price. I especially like their frozen yogurt.

[@melissaanderson821]

that looks like dipping in gold lol

[@GolfFanaticEstR]

Watching this while eating Chapman's Lolly 😀 !

[@DriveGamingLive]

So who wants Rick Mercer Blue Berry Chocolate?

[@canadasmartmind]

Delicious !

[@raymondwang3110]

I wonder how many Blackberries Rick goes through each year.....

[@spencerlukay5809]

I know what ice cream I'm sticking with!

[@marioiacolucci]

my family likes Chapman's

[@AsifAAli]

The amount of ice cream this guy wasted, a small town could have been fed somewhere in Africa. 😂

[@reentjekay7597]

Fun fun fun!!!!!

[@EGlVM]

Does anyone know if it's at Save On or Safeway?

[@AmazingJellyfish]

Wish thewy would bring back the RM bbpie in a larger container even

[@cynthiasealy573]

Where Rick goes, chaos follows…lol

[@ceceng6931]

Nobody missed a paychq despite going through such a hotific accident. Bless you folks.

[@rider_ringz5381]

If chapmans every goes out of business im done with ice cream

[@ameliaviolet8691]

lol selphi epic fail love it were his phone goes in to the chocolate vat & the word hope you like chocolate that has made me laugh my head off

[@milwaukeemotor5995]

I just hope they didn't waste that chocolate just for that scene

[@deviousdoses2012]

+MILWAUKEE “JETSTREAM” MOTOR I hope they did, or are you saying you want to eat chocolate where a man was swimming in ?

[@StressfulGengar]

It was probably a batch of chocolate that couldn't be used for some other reason, as normally That chocolate would be hot to keep it from setting, but since Rick jumps in its obviously not.

[@ameliaviolet8691]

[@tdixon748]

Speaker of the hot fudge sundae😂

[@peterbondi751]

Best prescription for when babies are teething!

[@camerond8176]

God I miss the Mercer Report every week........................I know it was comedy, but within the jokes were some very important and direct questions to catch our MP's off guard. Their reaction to the questions said much MORE than their scripted responses to it.

[@83056]

That was funny. :)

[@Karltheman240]

Dont worry, its only a blackberry

[@arsll554]

Charlie and the "Chapman's" factory? :)
