El video “Up Here, in Canada” presenta una ingeniosa canción canadiense del músico de Columbia Británica, Clark W.
El video de YouTube lanzado en el 2020 y ya tiene más de 2 millones de visitas. No sorprende que la canción y el video proporcionen una visión humorística de quiénes son los canadienses. De hecho, podría convertirse en una de las canciones de temática canadiense más definitorias fuera del Himno Nacional y “Twelve Days of Christmas” de Bob y Doug Mackenzie.

Según el músico y The Okanagan Mixing Studio que creó el video, está “dedicado a toda la buena gente de Canadá y todas las cosas que hacen únicos a los canadienses” y cubre prácticamente todo lo que hace de Canadá el mejor país del mundo.
Letra:
Timmies and hockey, syrup and bacon
Molson and mounties petrol can stations
Throwin’ on some cheese and gravy on top of our fries (that’s a poutine) And we wear our plaid sweaters when we walk amongst the northern lightsRockies and prairies, oceans and lakes
Other than winter, all the seasons are great Brushin’ off the snow a little longer than we’d like, oh-oh-oh But you won’t hear us complaining ’cause that just wouldn’t be polite (no man)‘Cause up here, in Canada
The air’s clear, the weather’s adequate We all cheer, we’re pretty passionate And everybody has a pet polar bear (and a moose) Yah, up here, in CanadaCelsius, kilometres, Prime Ministers and provinces
We maybe say it different but we always keep our promises We said we’d win the gold back in 2010 (and we did) But because we’re so nice, we’ll let you win every now and again (but not too much)‘Cause up here, in Canada
We like beards, we think they’re fabulous We don’t fear, if people laugh at us For wearing six pairs of long underwear (and a toque) Yah, up here, in CanadaBasketball, telephones, Wonder-bras and hockey
Snowmobiles, ketchup chips and even walkie-talkies Peanut butter, garbage bags, the mighty foghorn Just a few things that you can thank us for (you’re welcome)Shatner, Carrey, Myers, Gosling, Reynolds and Reeves
Candy, Short, Michael J. and all of Schitt’s Creek Celine, Shania, Adams, Bieber, Bublé and Drake We’re sorry about Nickelback, yah, that was a mistake We’re sorry, we’re sorry, yah, we’re sorry, eh We’re so, so, sorry!‘Cause up here, in Canada
We like beer, and our cannabis And each year, we all get taxed a bunch But everybody gets free healthcare (and a goos) Yah, up here, in CanadaCoo-ooh-coo-coo, coo-coo-coo-coo
Coo-ooh-coo-coo, coo-coo-coo-coo Coo-ooh-coo-coo, coo-coo-coo-coo Coo-ooh-coo-coo, coo-coo-coo-coo Coo-ooh-coo-coo, coo-coo-coo-coo
