Ah yeah G'Day, this is the difference between Canada and New Zealand.
Ah, no this isn't the Australian flag, they just stole our design and then added another star
And yeah, this is the Canadian one which has got like a leaf.
So in Canada they kind of sound like this
um, 'Hey there Buddy, don't you know I'm from Canada?'. I'm so sorry if that sounded American
um, and you can apologise for thinking that I sound Australian, I don't.
A lot of people like to think of New Zealand as like the Canada of the Pacific, You know, we're both really
relaxed countries, you guys are like 'Hey there, Buddy, just relax man'. Um, we've both
got annoying neighbours, you've got the U.S, we've got Australia. But there's also a lot of diferences too.
See Canada is like the second largest country in the world and we're
you know, definitely not um, see Canada's like, like a big old Gandolf and we're still just
a mini Frodo running about, like 'Hey, hey Gandolf man, gis a look, oh wow, OK see you
we'll just go back down here, we're here, we're still here.
Canadians like to say um,
Buddy, like 'hey there, Buddy' where we say um, Bro, so just like 'Sup Bro'.
In Canada you guys call a biscuit a cookie, you call togs a swimsuit, a trolley is a cart and when
you say the word puck in Canada well this comes to mind. Where here in New Zealand if you
say PUC well that's this. Pants up crack.
Canada has Drake, we have Drake.
Canada has Bears like um, Grizzly Bears, Black Bears, Polar Bears, where here in New Zealand we
don't have Bears, we've got Possums though, watach out a Possum could get ya. Um, the
closest thing we've had to a Bear was this.. "I'm the Polar Pop Bear, Polar Pop, Polar Pop"
In Canada the call this a sweater, where here in New Zealand we call it a jumper.
It's nothing to do with you know, like jumping, yeah it's spelt the same as that one but it
has nothing to do, I'm not sure where it...
Anyway speaking of weird English terms um, you know
like a warm hat that you might wear to the snow on your head well, yeah that. We call
that a beanie, obviously. But in Canada they call it a toque, which is very, it's confusing
cause let's say I grabbed your beanie and I ran away, are you guys going to be like
'Hey there, Buddy, hey this guy just took my toque.
I'm mean you're nice people but that just makes no sense. That's silly.
Ah, your Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, um he used to be a nightclub bouncer.
Our Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, she used to be a DJ. I'm not making any of this stuff up.
Um here in New Zealand we call like a small holiday home a bach. Where in Canada they
call it a lake house. We've got a lake. Lake Taupo. It's got a big trout. It's quite big.
Canada though, they've got like the world's great lakes and thousands of them, we don't
want to get into it, they're just showing off now.
Hey there buddy, wanna come take a peep out all my lakes?
We've got heaps of lakes...in Canada.
As mentioned earlier you Canadians hate being
mistaken for people from the U.S. Where here in New Zealand we hate being mixed up with Australians.
But you know you guys, it's kind of a fair
point because Canada and the U.S. You're so close like there's only a thin little invisible
line that divides the countries. Where here in New Zealand, we've got a whole ocean dividing
Australia and New Zealand but somehow the whole world's like "Oh are you from Australia mate?"
"No I'm not from Australia!" But you know we're also quite a relaxed country
so we don't let it get under our skin.
Here's a fact. Canada has the longest street
in the world and we, New Zealand, have the steepest.
In Canada you guys are like addicted to Maple syrup. So much so, you guys have like back-up
reserves of Maple syrup in case there's like a national shortage.
Um, here in New Zealand, we've got Golden Syrup. We don't care if it runs out really...
It's not a big thing...
Here in New Zealand we're actually more relaxed
than the people in Canada. For example, when it comes to a donut, you know how there's
the hole in the middle. It's never crossed our mind what happens to that bit. Like, where
did it go when they punched that bit....We don't care, we just eat the donut.
But in Canada, they're a freaky little bunch of people and they've captured those bits,
they've figured out what's happened, and then they cook those bits, those little bits from
the inside and they eat them. They call them, in Canada, Timbits.
Which again is a weird as a toque. That's a weird name.
Because what if you're there one day eating your little bag of Timbits and some guy's there like
"Oh hi, I'm Tim" You're like "Oh I'm just eating Tim-bits"
That's yuck.
Ah look Canada, you're real nice, we're real nice
I'm thinking we grab Maui, jump in a Waka, we'll paddle up to you, grab a hacksaw out
cut through your border with the U.S. and then we can drag you down to just sit
by us, you know, bump Australia out the way, you guys can sit there.
Or Australia, you can come and just sit, you know, just below us. That way you'll be much
closer so it's easier for you to keep on claiming all the good things from our country.
And that's the difference between New Zealand and Canada, with a few friendly jibes about Australia.
Ah hopefully no Canadians were harmed in the
making of this video. Cos I'd hate to have to deal with Trudeau the bouncer.
Woaoooahhh scary.
You can subscribe if you want.
There should be like a subscribe thing. And you can watch something else. Um this is the difference
between Australia and New Zealand, you can watch that if you haven't.
Some Australians got pretty wound up about a shrimp on a barbecue. Don't ask.
Was just a bit of friendly banter mate, ay? Ay!? ay? ay?
