I hereby declare this man polite, open minded, culturally curious and educated in our ways enough to be granted the title of honorary Canadian (passport and citizenship not included)

“The Log Driver’s Waltz” animated short is such a Canadian classic.

The fridge commercial showing the locations in the UK, Belgium and France did so because Canadian Armed Forces fought with distinction in each of those locations during WW II.

I am Canadian and the Rant (Joe) was the best commercial that was out back then. Just about everyone in Canada could recite "The Rant". Truly Canadian

Tyler I think you are more Canadian than you think. Good job and thanks for your kind comments. It’s always a pleasure visiting your channel

The rant came at a time where it felt Canadians were not very patriotic, or felt like we weren’t as a great nation as we actually were. As a kid we all talked about this commercial in school. It wasn’t a beer commercial, it was a Canadian commercial

The Rant actor is a young Jeff Douglas from Truro, Nova Scotia. He is now a CBC afternoon radio host in Halifax. He's well respected here in Nova Scotia and is still a very proud Canadian!

The Rant was the first of these commercials...it shocked and moved us, and made us talk about our land, and we began to allow ourselves to be proud And brag about our country. ❤

Not a commercial, but a clip from a hockey game from years ago when the microphone of the person singing the national anthems had a malfunction at the start of the American anthem, and the Canadian crowd sang the American anthem as a group. Because most countries don't expect an another countries people to know their anthem, this clip was played on the news all over America.

The fridge commercials were clever. They gave you all the feels. There was also an Olympic version where these fridges were in the Olympic village, and they had to unlock the fridge not just with a passport but also had to say 'I am Canadian' in five different languages. It not only was patriotic, it was a show of multiculturalism as well.

The rant always gives me shivers, and the anthem should be our anthem. I miss these commercials. 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦

Canadian here. Along with these commercials, Molson put I am Canadian t shirts in some of their 24's. I wore mine in Thailand during Songkran and had so many people coming up to hug me. Good times. 😊

I am Canadian and I approve this message, or approve of these commercials. And yes, I did swell up with national pride. 🍁🍁

The CRTC made a law in the 90's that ads couldn't show people drinking alcohol, you can only see them holding the bottle or the can. The advertisement companies needed to get really clever really fast to get people to remember who their client was. Molson struck gold.

During the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, it became a real thing to have people bursting into O Canada on the street, in the bars, on the bus, etc... literally all-the-time. It was very cool! If you haven't done a reaction to the how the country exploded when Canada won gold in men's hockey, add it to your list.

Tyler. Love your channel. As a born and raised Canadian It’s great seeing Canada through your eyes. Come to Canada we’ll buy you a Canadian 🍻

Yes, Log driving waltz is an old song from our Vingettes/Heritage Minutes. log driving is real or should I say was, it was considered one of the most dangerous jobs in Canada. My wife was one of the few people left that has actually seen it in action on the west coast as a child.

It s too bad that The Rant and Anthem were left out of the first compilation, I am so happy you found them! Thank you for reacting to them.

I'm a proud Canadienne and I find you a very cool American, very open minded.

There's nothing better than sitting around a fire at night and hearing the loon on the lake at the cottage. Nobody minds if there's a lull in the conversation because you are savouring the sounds and the quiet of where you are. Canadians enjoy the natural beauty around them whenever they can.

a quick way to learn about our history is through watching the Canadian Heritage minutes.

Tyler you have to hear the logdrivers waltz !!!! It's so Canadian it's like a heritage point

Tyler, thank you! For taking an interest in our Country . We are a country of cultural diversity and cultural acceptance. We pride ourselves in living our best lives and living in peace with one another but do not take our kindness for weakness. We will stand up for what we believe and we stand strong together, all cultures as one. We are a peace loving Country and loyal Allied to all for the right cause. I believe as Countries, we can learn from one another. I am proud to be Canadian!🇨🇦 I AM PROUD TO BE CANADIAN!

It's been over 20 years and The Rant and The Anthem both still make me laugh and brings tears of patriotic love to my eyes. So happy for you learning about how awesome Canada is.

Joe Canadian is played by actor Jeff Douglas. He is now a broadcaster on CBC radio. Quote: "When I die and I am laid to rest, that is going to be on my tombstone. 'Here lies Joe Canadian'...I didn't say I wanted that written on my tombstone. I just said that is what is going to be written on my tombstone." So Canadian.

The rant gave me goosebumps again.

I'm man enough to admit it, I'm 52, in the midst of my mid-life crisis, and watching these commercials brought a tear to my eye! Joe Canada/Molson gave my generation "permission" to be patriotic.... in our own Canadian way. Iconic for sure!

These commercials are so nostalgic for me! I think nearly every Canadian born in the 90s or earlier will have seen most of these, especially the rant commercial. It’s iconic here. Also, you were talking about hockey in one of your last videos. Many Canadians probably recognize some of the 70s hockey footage from the anthem commercial as the 72 Canada vs Russia series - even those of us who weren’t born until long after it happened. One more thing, yes we were known for log rolling and still have one of the largest lumber industries in the world. So many fun facts and proud moments all packed into short commercials!

Glad you got to see the beer fridge commercials. This is Canada giving a part of itself to the world. Meet a Canadian, share a beer and learn about each other. There is another beer fridge commercial that you missed that tells you about the pride Canada takes in its diversity ( say I Am Canadian in different languages ). The rant and the anthem are legendary! All of these are more than just commercials, they're Canada in a nutshell.

There is another fridge one that opened when people said "I am Canadian" but it had to be in 4 or 5 languages before it opened. That one was good too, representing Canada's multiculturalism.

Thanks for finally getting around to one of our most famous Canadian commercials The Rant. Always makes me proud to say "I'AM CANADIAN".

Thank you Tyler, for showing these videos and understanding that we have a right to be proud of our country, instead of putting us down when they've never even been here. I think you are now an honorary Canadian!

“Made From Canada” is my favourite commercial they’ve ever made. They showed it during the olympics and it always made me swell up with pride! Thanks for the reaction!

The Beaver is a proud and noble animal.

I like the Canadian Fridge commercial where you have to say “I am Canadian “in a number of different languages to open it. Another great video.

MOLSON, the largest brewer, had the sponsored name of the largest stadium for hockey in Toronto for decades. All these commercials were aired during hockey games for 8 months of the year. A little humour and satire never hurts. The fridge was set out again at the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver - Whistler. It required FIVE languages to speak: "I am Canadian" to open the door.

'The Rant' speaks to the misconceptions others have of Canada and Canadians 🤪😂🤣

Found myself sitting on the balcony not watching, but listening to, your video, while sipping on a cold one and singing along to Canada's second favourite anthem. My own Canadian moment. Thank you. The rant also makes me proud.

Great job, Tyler! As Canadians were taught from a young age about your country but I feel most Americans don’t have a clue about Canada…..which is sad….because we are neighbours! 🇨🇦 ❤️ 🇺🇸

Thank you Tyler for appreciating Canada. I feel like you are one of us ❤.

This is and always will be my favourite commercial and I am CANADIAN ❣️🇨🇦Thank you for bringing this back.

Proudest moment of my life was the last professional championship at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto, half time lights go out, a spotlight shows a man walking to the mic, he starts his monologs to a full house cheers and ending with I AM CANADIAN. PS they won with a tiebreaker goal with .07 seconds on the clock.

The anthem starts off with the driving of the last spike in the coast to coast railroad that brought Canada together. Of course we do log rolling - we have a huge forestry industry! Yes, I am proud to be Canadian! Thank you for showing these and “getting” the messages :). We certainly need more of this these days. I always enjoy your shows.

"I Believe" by Nikki Yanofsky is a very emotional piece and it was created for the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Hey Tyler - Happy you saw my comment from the other video! For those of us who have backpacked across the world, it's well known that when other people see a Canadian flag on your backpack they are happy to see you and say! "Hey, you're Canadian!" That's what he's referring to.

Yay thanks so much for finally getting around to this video. The rant is iconic, somebody jokingly said that when you become Canadian that you have to take that pledge. I love the fridge commercials, they're great, there's a bunch of them. I also love the anthem it's a great song and yes shows many clips of Canadian culture. Thanks again for another great video, keep them coming, my name is Lala and I AM CANADIAN!!!

Thank you for revisiting the commercials and watching these ones. We Canadians are more patriotic than we sometimes let on. You, sir, are an honorary Canadian!

This hit me right in the gut and made me so nostalgic...especially being in the state we're in now. Nothing demonstrated Canadian pride better than Molson Canadian commercials. Wooooooo! This gave me chills and made me remember who we really are! ✌

I am thrilled you decided to feature my 2 favs, I was disappointed when they were not on the first compilation.

It was so nice to see the smile on your face after watching Canadian beer commercials, you almost looked Canadian...lol! 😁✌

Those commercials brought tears to my eyes!! So nostalgic!❤

Thanks SO MUCH! I've always loved "The Rant" and I remember "The Anthem" vaguely, but I'd never seen the geographic one, and had forgotten about the Beer Fridge versions. Brought a tear to this old Canadian's eye. Love it! ❤

Still need the Heritage Moment commercials done someday

Of course so many Canadians know/knew these commercials, they were often played during the televised Hockey Games. 😂😂 Proud to be Canadian 😊

I live in Canada and haven’t seen these commercials. Unfortunately some of us have quit watching conventional television and stream our entertainment. So we are missing out on a lot of classic and iconic Canadian productions!

Oh thank goodness you found "The Rant" and "The Anthem"!

Ah man, the Anthem always brings a tear to my eye, even right now.

I never saw Molson’s Anthem ad till today watching it with you. 😊

A note to all my fellow Canadians who, like me, enjoyed this commercial, remember this was a Canadian commercial not a Quebec commercial. At one time Molson Canadian was not available in bars in Quebec even though Molson is headquartered in Montreal!! Vive le Canadian!

They were truly iconic commercials. I haven't seen one in years, thanks Tyler for the memory reboot.

Canadian viewers who are much older can attest that another Canadian beer company (Carling) had the best commercials on tv. Carling Red Cap Ale had a series of ads in 1960’s with the Red Cap anthem. Every Canadian knew the words and could sing along. Red cap flags flew from campsites and car antennas. These ads are all on KZfaq and will blow away Canadians that weren’t around at the time

This trip down memory lane was fun. I even sang along to our national anthem. Thanks for doing this!

Tyler I came across your video as I was searching for this commercial. Watching your genuine reactions and understanding of what these could have meant to us, was very cool. The sense of pride these commercials gave to many of us is difficult to describe. I’m 40 now and I think they should bring these back to unify us and hopefully galvanize us all to demand better leadership… thank you

Yay! I knew you would appreciate the rant and the fridge. You reacted the way I thought you would.😊 I've never seen the second commercial, 'I am Canadian'. Its a good one and should be revamped and aired again. And look at you knowing "Canada 150".

Our Canadian commercials are the true definition of patriotism!

Thank you for this walk down memory lane with the beer commercials..today they mean more to me ❤❤

The Rant was probably the first time we heard this feeling of National Pride on TV and connected with it across the country, as Canadians! ❤❤❤ EVERY time it came on I wanted to stand up and cheer! And always teared up with a sense of belonging ❤

You have made my day, Tyler. Joe's Rant is always a delight (actor is Jeff Douglas), there is a version done by William Shatner. Have not heard The Anthem in ages. The Canada-Russia hockey series in 1972 was a huge deal for us, the country essentially stopped for each game. The first set was in Canada, the second set was in Russia. Came down to a final goal by Paul Henderson and the country went wild. It began the influx of European players into our game and vice versa. The Beer Fridge Ads were a delight and the one where people have to say "I am Canadian" in several languages to get the fridge to open is a favourite. Your Budweiser ads with the Clydesdales is the closedt you have and those are pretty great, too. As for log burling, that was mostly from log driving in the Eastern forests, a bit different out here in the West

Several references to the 1972 Summit Series you may not recognize. It was a Cold War era 8 game hockey challenge - Canada vs Russia. Technically the USSR. It was 4 games in each country. An epic moment in our history where sport merged with political ideals. It was like Democracy playing against Communism to prove systematic superiority. It was a very heated battle. At one point in Russia soldiers surround the Canadian bench with firearms. The players had to save the event organizer Alan Eagleson from being abducted. In hindsight we should have handed him over. He was the infamous lawyer that as a player agent stole a huge amount of money from the legendary superstar Bobby Orr. After game four in Vancouver, Phil Esposito’s personal rant to the fans was seen as the turning point in the eventual Canadian victory. He basically gave fans shit for booing them. The Russian team was literally a team of Russian soldiers. They were great players and it was 1972, the height of steroid misuse, so they were juiced to the max. They prepared for months for the challenge. The Canadian team on the other hand was led to believe it would be a cake walk and showed up in September out of shape after a summer of drinking beer and fishing. They had to dig deep to pull this one out. To many of us, taking on the USSR one on one was one of our most defining moments as a nation. I was in sixth grade at the time. The Games in Russia were on midday but they were played live in almost every school classroom in the country.

Brings back so many memories. Sooooo glad you found the best ones!! Signed: Fellow Canadian 😊

it has been too long since seeing these. they bring back memories of growing up and having fun. I thank you for the pleasure your channel brings. keep up the good work.

I have two recommendations 😁 'We Are More by Shane Koyczan' during the 2010 Vancouver Olympics opening ceremony Shane Koyczan performed this poem about the Canadian Identity. The second video is called 'In Canada' by Chris Hadfield. Chris Hadfield is a Canadian Astronaut, he made KZfaq videos while he was in space. It's chalk full of references that even I had to google lol perfect for Canada on July 1st

The Rant is iconic. It struck a chord immediately when it appeared in the 90s. Btw, you should review a few Heritage Minutes, especially "Valour Road". Cheers from Canada!

These commercials give me all the good feels about being a Canadian. Another great program Tyler, our unofficial Canadian brother ! 😊

"The Rant" was one of the most often repeated, often imitated, and often quoted ads of all time. Even though it's been a long time since "The Rant" was released, it's still one of the cleverest pieces of writing to hit TV.

Yes Tyler, the commercials are meant to be funny based on truisms.... we can laugh at the stereotypes, we can laugh about how serious we take hockey and we can laugh at the silliness of some of our culture like the beaver.

The Rant still makes me misty. I wish we identified more as Peacekeepers these days.

Look up the Log Drivers' Waltz. It is a classic Canadian folk song I believe from the 70s, written by a couple of classic Canadian icons, Kate & Anna McGarrigle. (One was married to Loudon Wainwright jr. And their son is Rufus Wainwright.) The Log Drivers Waltz was made into a beautiful animated short movie featuring the now-iconic song. Much of Canada as it is today was built on logging.

The Singing the National Anthem fridge brings a tear to my eye and makes me so proud to be Canadian. I love this country.

I love the Igloo in the snow globe on the screen at the end.😂 "I am Canadian!"

The only problem with these commercials is that the commercials are better than the beer 😂😂 It makes me proud to be Canadian but not proud enough to actually drink Canadian

Yes, the last one of the people singing O Canada in the streets and forests, that made me tear up. Proud to be Canadian.

Thank you for the Nostalgia. The “Rant” one especially. Forgot a couple of these existed,but loved them all!

There is at least one more "fridge" commercial. That is, the one with "Say I am Canadian". Even better than the ones you just watched.

' The Canadians' is my absolute favourite Molson commercial. Love seeing these old commercials, proud to be Canadian

I haven't been back in almost 10 years, watched the other one and just enjoyed the heck out of it, but the first Beer Fridge opening brought me to tears. Thanks for putting these together.

Glad you found this! Yesterday I went down the rabbit hole and watched NEWFOUNDLAND ACCENTS !

Great job Tyler. You get to understand the canadian sense of humour.

This is actually a history lesson because there’s no way there will be a beer commercials in the future.

I get shivers every time I watch The Rant commercial. I was really looking forward to you discovering it.

Thanks for bringing me back to these days. I was too drunk to remember these back then!! 😂

🇨🇦 goose bumps 🇨🇦. The anthem. & the rant !

It's great that you recognized the commercials as explaining as why we are the way we are.

Thanks Tyler, for reminding us Canadian of who we really are as Canadians. Molson Brewery really is Canadian. It began in 1786 by John Molson in Montreal

I like how the "Made From Canada" Molson commercial used the "Requiem for a Dream" theme. It will never cease to amuse me, the irony of using such a piece to represent or invoke a sense of pride and triumph.

Thank you Tyler. 🥰 You are my favorite Americain. So funny and iconic. I wish more Americains were like you. 🤩🤩🤩 There is a whole group of these commersials that you missed but these are all very iconic ones. I love the Made in Canada one. Others you have not seen that I also love is Ninja Porcupine, 500 miles, Olympic/ Urban Beer fridge and Just for laughs William Shatner rant. Golden also had a few true commercial jems. I was never a beer drinker but loved these commercials overall for the patriotic feelings evoked. Back when these were being aired, Molson Canadian and Labatt's Blue were the 2 most popular beers by the general masses. Most of these commercials were aired during Hockey Night in Canada, a very popular show with a high beer drinking viewer base. 🥰🇨🇦

I’m so happy you found the best commercials ! They were/ are amazing ❤🇨🇦❤️

I agree, these were works of art and that's why they were so well received and have persevered.

Ill say it again. At some point we get a vlog of Tyler traveling Canada. This has to be were this is all leading

These were very iconic and nostalgic. There was a time in my life when my friends and I had the rant memorized lol. The video at 12:30 always gets me
