hello and welcome to a very special episode of the vlog because today we are in canada with my
american friend jason who is back finally after the border is half open one way and i'm going
to take jason inside a canadian tire we've been wanting to do it for such a long time have you
ever been inside one i've only been into the auto center when we had that car issue oh right we went
to montreal and uh we hit a we hit something on the road so they they took care of you for
for free for free they were so nice and so nice but you've never actually gone inside you've heard
a lot about it i think and specifically jim gaffigan did a whole bit about canadian tire
on his stand-up set i don't know why i would think they'd only sell tires
it's not like the store is called canadian tire you know people love shopping for tires
we lure them in with the tires what do you hope to see here today what do you what's your expectation
i want a whole stack of tires that goes up to the ceiling like racks and racks, rows of tire
it's not it's not going to be what you think sir we lure them in with the tire
and boom we sell them a blender it's very true unfortunately
so some tires there's some tires so what's why call it the canadian tire i don't know it must
i'm sure it started out as like just auto shop comment down below where did canadian tire start
how did it start out and now it's much much more so i have zero expectation of what to expect if
we find something interesting maybe we'll we'll grab it out here just test it out i just wanted
you know see what you i want to see it you i want to see how you feel about it yeah let's go okay
very canadian
there you are
how do you feel so right off the bat it's like a target
really okay yeah like a mix of a walmart and a target yeah that's what i'm getting it's different
feels way more open it's a good location there's another one down the street canadian tire that's
not as good as this one yeah my opinion is a good one yeah they got grills so that's
what a target is like i know they had target target here as well but like i don't remember
ever thinking it was close to what this is yeah i would but target has clothes clothes is there
no clothes here no not really not for like just normal clothes where yeah you want a giant match
so you have to leave it smells clean new yeah oh look at the film
so where are the tires see everything but tires right now well this is the great quest oh my god
there's a whole bucket of those those uh yeah i'm ready to find some tires how about you me
too yeah sure just just to appease you these are cool what is it there's a flow map thing
you can walk on the water oh yeah oh look made in canada cool i'd room in my car i'd take it home
i just want one of those i suppose if you know where you're going this place is
fine you ever been to like a lowe's or a home depot and you walk in you're like i have no
idea where i'm going or what i'm supposed to be getting yeah even though you knew before you went
in there right and then you're like wandering like no i don't know where i'm going like every
aisle seems like a very unique thing like this is like lawn care so i get that like patio lawn care
leading into the garden century yeah century no it's not centra it's center it's how you spell it
right spike ball do you have can jam do you guys sell canned jam i don't know what's a can jam made
in the u.s and it's a lawn game oh it's like the cans of frisbee yeah i remember that from my my
days over in america nope i don't see it i see you have corn hole that you call it shuffle bag
okay that's what you need you gotta bring that home and fly downtown buffalo what other things
do you have or don't have let's see it's just so vast this store yeah the pinpoint one thing
all right what is this is a camping area it feels like a wide variety of like everything it's true
it's overwhelming it is you're kind of right you kind of got to come in here with some ideas so
we got a whole sporting section oh yeah ice skates this is canada this is not something you would see
in the states really like you don't sell hockey skates oh they do but look at this presentation
and the selection is way higher hockey bags everything you ever need here i'll
take those please yeah oh my god canada there's like aisles of hockey stuff
oh the hockey stick a jungle of gloves
like a whole section of it it's all hockey basically oh here we go
what it's not hockey finally pig punk pink oh some canadian darts what do you think
there you go i believe travel accessories they've even named their brand maple leaf travel
accessories why is that a thing here we go oh this is what you need what the heck is the cfo oh
yeah here we go nfl guess what the balls are the same size there's a myth that the canadian balls
footballs are bigger that's not true they're they're the exact same size as a normal nfl
ball as well allegedly no it's true you know we've been looking for 10 minutes now and i still have
yet to see a tire these tires aren't the same like a car tires it's not an to be entire shop
anymore if it ever was okay but at least put a couple at the front it just match your brand name
like oh yeah we do have them it's just not our thing anymore more we walk through it the more
it feels like a lowe's with a sporting component to it yeah or a home depot that's a souvenir
that's what you need we're buying it for you no how much is it sarah i'll have to leave again
four bucks it's worth it what am i gonna do with the bucket don't you ever need a bucket i guess
so well now we're in the tools section yeah i remember trying to explain this place to you
and i didn't know how yeah it just kind of has a lot of things everything except for groceries
so do you have like home depot yeah we have home depot we have lowe's we have like a rona which
is a similar to lowe's and home because we don't have those we don't have roanoke you know growing
up yeah and then there's like for some reason a party city you know party city yeah it's in
well there's like it's this is more new than what i'm used to it's a bit strange to me too
you need any party city items any balloons for the ride home no no oh
we should look at the little knickknacks they got yeah chargers they become a store of knickknacks
that are that are kind of funny like almost like that as seen on tv knickknacks yeah this kind of
they kind of did i do need some w40 but i can't uh i'll do that at home yeah that might be contraband
look at all these flashlights batteries it's so great they got belts you need some belt heads see
this is this is a throw-off here don't let this represent what it's it's very confusing now they
have no clothes no but they got the belt they have the belt maybe it's to hold the tires together
i do need batteries oh here seriously is that a good deal i don't know put them in your bucket
will you okay maybe some high-speed cable look how long these are what is this for if
you're going high-speed sunglasses could use some sunglasses really yeah what do you think i would i
would say you got to get some canadian entire sunglasses okay what should i get these ones
pretty snazzy oh yeah you like it first pick that never happens as long as you leave the tag on
okay all right into the bucket nice saw wipe everything kitchen oh yeah this is the kitchen
section yeah let's find the blenders and boom you get them with the blender
there it is not just a blender look at this you got blenders on both sides the land of
blenders nice little popcorn maker they're pretty affordable oh that's 90 bucks you gonna get it
no we got kayaks so it's like this weird mix of sporting hardware store and home goods store
i don't know what to tell you it's it's its own thing it's canadian it feels good to be here
it's fresh something nice in the air it's a good smell it is fresh right there's a fresh tuna brush
it's like it feels new i hate the lights but i always hated lights like this oh okay yeah this
is after a while and just like yeah no food they have some snacky things like once in a while yeah
like knick-knack snacks yeah knick-knack snack and they sell things to make food in yeah and blankets
uh lights fixtures anything you need so if you just need a quick purchase and not go on amazon
yeah this is your place this is your place this is the amazon's warehouse
that's it for life in canada what is it though by canadians for canadians
does that mean i can't that's correct you must vacate this area immediately oh they're soft
i don't know i've never seen these before put me on the head oh it's a lamp that's kind of fun yeah
it's a detergent garbage can projector so some electronics yeah it's strange
for your car giant flags oh here you go so look at this this
you can have one in your own house oh coming out of your house this is where you would get it
right but most people don't have this maybe we got to change that we got to become more patriotic
yeah add these by these there you go i will not porch no no yeah i'm not going to this is your
amazing canadian section oh look at those that's what you need right there canada flip-flops that's
so that's so you this is the perfect and they're they're 28.98 you can't afford not to buy it
all right all right throw it in the bucket here we go three items this here look this is there
oh yeah look at that you don't that's that's like all the canadian things you don't get other than
the kitkat but it's made differently yeah right they don't have that that pack the coffee cruise
arrow and smarties like you've never seen that in no ever crazy yeah here we go let's look at this
what's it there you go food stuff half price on all clearance candy it's clearance candy
your junior mints packages are different excel you don't have excel i don't think so
really they have extra what's this oh that's coconut yeah the bounty it's probably the
same exact as like an almond joyer you're right it's the canadian version because
i've never seen that you're absolutely right it probably is now we're getting somewhere
not tires but tire racks we're close we must be getting close i can smell it
smell that rubber i imagine it's closer to the shop the auto shop right next to party city
you found it
is this what you imagined i guess that's some tires it's not a spectacular definitely not as
spectacular as you would hope i wanted stacks to the ceiling they only have one of each
there's a pile here though yeah there's a pile i suppose we could stack it up
and not get a little disappointed well you name your entire store
after a tire not just any tire a canadian tire well here's some canadian tires for you
isn't goodyear manufactured in the united states they're not even canadian tires they're just tires
the whole thing is a sham disappointed canadian tire but it's so much more than the tire
yeah you know what they should do you see all these pillars and this
just use them in the tires to wrap around oh i see so like yeah yeah yeah i was like okay
now we're at a tire place i'm gonna buy a tire no maybe when in rome all right i'll get a tire okay
all right well this is a store but i could see myself coming back to yeah yeah it's got a lot
of things if you don't know really what you want but you have an idea of what you want
exactly they probably got it this has been a successful day but my experience
at the first canadian tire right was way more of a canadian experience
of course it was because you're dealing with the people directly helping us which you can
watch in our poutine episode right over here we click the little flyout shelf checkout
thank you sir thank you oh they spray you with the hose on the way out oh yeah
