Sometimes I think the Canada memes are going to far, then I remember we have a strategic maple syrup reserve
@David McConville to be faaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiir
yep
dont worry, we in switzerland have strategic reserves of every basic consumer good
Are going to far? Where is this place far you mention? Or did you mean TOO far?
@@numberpirate Everywhere is too in nations that big
American cartels: *hey you want some drugs?*
Canadian cartels: *hey you want some super cheap maple syrup?*
Me:
edge lord I will take your entire stock of syrup
Well you can legally buy cannabis infused maple syrup in Canada, so Canadian cartels are at least drug adjacent
Sugar is a drug, people like sugar because it causes them to release hormones like endorphins that alter their mental state. Sugar is also not exactly naturally occurring. It’s like cocaine
BubbleBreak no sugar is not a drug
@@ashdsf_ Sugar is a mild drug like coca leaves. Syrup is concentrated sugar just like cocaine is a concentrate. They both release dopamine.
I'll name something more Canadian, walking into a moose on your way to your hockey game and apologising.
You got me there

As a Canadian I can say the American south is the most terrifying place I’ve ever been. To many tourists. Lots of crocodiles and worst of all..... they think that you live in the northern states, NOT CANADAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

Gawd, I freaking love this channel! Dude you're hilarious! Cheers from the hollers of WV!
Thank you so much!
Americans: smoke crack
Canadians: do maple syrup
Canada: Hey would you like some maple syrup?
"I was thinking something else like blueberry syrup-"
Canada: *We Dont Talk About That*
I've heard a longer version of this story, and that sounded a lot like the thieves had no problem with the Federation. Instead it seemed more like the Federation itself was behind the whole thing. Intentionally building a warehouse with zero security where nobody would see what's going on at night to quietly sell off their reserve on the black market. They were stealing from themselves. Unfortunately someone forgot to tell the guy who called the police.
Huh. I did not run into that account when I was researching.
“Our story ends in the worst place any Canadian can go, the American south” wrong, every Canadian knows that Manitoba is the worst place you could ever be sent
Mans bullying Aunt Jemima like he didn’t drench his pancakes in that on every campout
No comment
@@HistoryHouseProductions do you know how many black people you got mad at you for that. We love aunt Jemima lmao. Good one
This channel is great.
Canadian Judge: I find you guilty eh.
Maple Syrup stealers: Fine, fine. What prison are you gonna send us to.
Canadian Judge: We’re not sending you to prison. Were sending you to the American south eh.
Maple Syrup Stealers: Noooooooooooooo!
American prisoner: welcome to Texas State penitentiary boy.
Oh that serious Syrup industry. My god, it's somehow hilarious that so much of the state's resources are put into maple syrup problems.
Hey you're back! It sucks it takes you a lot to make us videos, but I appreciate you making us videos to entertain us, thanks man!
Thank YOU! Comments like this are what make it worth it.

Can i choose Average Discorder?
as a quebecois, i'm just proud that our nation is being talked about. And yeah, we are also the master of state sanctioned monopoly, like SAQ for alcohol, Loto-Québec for lottery, Hydro-Québec for electricity and most important of all, SQDC for weed.
Wich are all understandable monopoly
I grew up in Minnesota, which is one reason I understand how cold weather could affect maple syrup production. The sap doesn't run in the trees when it is too cold. You have to collect sap when the snow is just melting, so late winter/early spring is the best time for it. The video doesn't fully explain that. You also have to collect about 100 times more sap than the amount of syrup you get out, so sap collectors have to work hard, doncha know.
Anywho, the Maple Syrup Cartel makes a lot of sense, even for consumers, since it helps guarantee there is syrup available all year-round, every year. While a totally free market would give us very cheap syrup in the spring, it would be either/or very expensive or unavailable the rest of the time. Personally, I like real maple syrup on my pancakes and french toast, not the flavored corn syrup most people eat.
This channel needs more subs So I’m staying
This was perfect.
Thanks!
gotta say this is the most educational episode of Kevin Spencer I've ever seen.
Wow, to imagine there's such villany in the world. Thank God Brazilian cartels have not find out about syrup yet.
The most Canadian thing: A Canadian Lumberjack ranger eating pancakes with maple syrup on a moose loose caboose inside of a hockey ring. And moose is on skates.
This channel has been blowing up

I can imagine Canadians drink maple syrup like it’s vodka.
That would be expensive af... Vodka is cheaper!
I need a movie about this now!!!
It needs to be as aggressively Canadian as possible
I think there actually is a movie in development with Jason Segel
@@HistoryHouseProductions For real! That's brilliant 🤣
