Canadian guy here and amateur Canadian history buff. I don't think I've encountered a better summation and this guy pretty much nails it. While I admittedly skimmed past the last 5 minutes I'd say he didn't really highlight Quebec's contribution to our modern identity as he could have done. Obviously, being a "French speaking nation in a sea of English" the Quebeckers were even more protectionist and anti-American than Anglo Canadians. Quebec has also generally been more liberal than us staunch and stuffy English banker types, and they have done a lot to usher in social programs including universal daycare and worker's rights and obviously having both French and English recognized as official languages (something that pissed almost everyone off at the time but was legit the right move to have made.)

Just to make it clear though, today I view you Yankees very much like first cousins and I have a lot of love and respect for my American friends despite the fucked up shit you insist on doing still. And the UK is like a distant Aunt who doesn't really care about us anymore outside of sending us a birthday card every year, she's too busy fawning over our youngest cousin Australia.

You can use some of that love and respect to pay your fair share of NATO, you freeloaders.

I agree 100%, our military desperately needs funding but Trudeau keeps pushing billions out to LGBT canoe building charity clubs in Africa and around the world.
