He wrote 2 New York Times Best Sellers DAD IS FAT and FOOD: A Love Story He co-created and starred in a tv series based on his life called The Jim Gaffigan Show.

As an American, I'd like to say THANK YOU Canada, for being the best neighbour we could ever have.
Right back at you! I love the US!
You're welcome 😂
What a lovely comment!
You're American(or a citizen of the USA - as there 's lots of countries on the American continents,so no one should be claiming it as their own) and you spelled neighbour the proper Canadian/correct way? Suspicious, was that a mistake or is your computer set to UK(Canadian) spellcheck?!!LOL!!🤣🇨🇦🤝🇺🇸
I'm going to go one step further...THANK YOU Canada AND Mexico for the TWO best neighbors ANY nation could have.
An old saying:
A bilingual in Canada is a francophone that speaks English. An Anglophone that speaks French is called a miracle.
Fun thing about winning wars is keeping your language
Anglophone: Bonjour
Francophone: Hello
Let me try French Quebec people!
@@421less1 Sure, but without QC the R.O.C. is pretty lame.
@@frankiesomethin yeah. Law abiding first world countries are lame, & their citizens shallow ingrates.
@@TheGreatMoonFrog In New Brunswick, when you meet someone, it's not unusual for them to say, "Bonjour! Hello!" - which lets you know that then you can continue in the language of your choice.
"....but they had different mothers...." You're brilliant Mr. Gaffigan.
I didn’t understand that joke. What does it mean?
@@coltonmerritt169 Québec is the remnant of New France, where French settlers established themselves in the 1500s and 1600s. When the British, who had their settlement in New England, won the 7 years war, they took over New France. But the French culture survived despite their efforts to eradicate it. British came to New France and were joined, after the American revolution, by american loyalists who wanted to remain subjects (a.k.a slaves) to the crown of England.
Hence, the roots of Canada were born, from the remnants of the French and the British crowns. That is why we still, to this day, waste tax money on British royalty.
As a Québécois from Québec City (98% of which speaks French at home) I was so surprised when I watched this on Prime. I've watched pretty much all your stand up and I think you're hilarious, but this impressed me as you gotta have a good understanding of the culture to nail it like you did!
I have listened to a couple of videos of his on Canada and yes he is informed and has a good understanding of Canadians and our country. Not once have I cringed at one of his jokes about Canada; some are quite insightful.
I love that he pronounces Quebec properly and he also knows how to say Poutine. Damn' Like 80% of Canadians don't know this.
@The Canadian Crusader ça démontre plutôt vôtre ignorance crasse...😁😘😘
we all know it's technically poutine but it sounds dumb as hell so we act like normal people and call it poutine.
@@monke980 les imbéciles de morons font souvent ça...😘
@@robin-bq1lz yeah okay dont get mad you sound dumb when you say it lol.
@@monke980 comme j’ai déjà écrit, probablement pour les gros idiots incultes et morons,je n’en doute pas....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😁😘✊🏼👍👌
So great to see an American comic go to Canada and do a long set about Canada and to do it with such great humor but also so respectfully in terms of truly knowing the culture and geography. I can't tell you how embarrassed I am as an American listening to American comics at JFL in Montreal who address the crowd as if in America, refers to American locations and people, and even makes American political humor without taking the slightest hint of time to inject some Canadian references. So kudos to you, Jim, for such a great Canadian set.
Jim is such a plethora of Canadian knowledge. This Acadian gal loves it!
Thank you for using plethora in a sentence. It's one of my favorite words out of the cornucopia of favorites that I have. :)
As a Francophone-NB-Born-Acadian-Now-Living-in-Quebec, I find this hilarious!
Then you should check out my comment to Nick McConnell just above.
👁️👄👁️ je crois avoir appris une chanson sur un de tes ancêtres quand j'étais petite ! (Je suis à 80% sûre que c'est 'les Acadiens'). Also, it might just be a huge coincidence 🤭
I think Melissa just made that up?
Someone translates what she said.
@@Noob___Noob Mélissa is a French speaker from the Acadian region of the province of New-Brunswick and she's now living in the province of Quebec. Here...translate done.... at least she didn't said it in Chiac ;)
"There are Canadians who speak English and French. They're called flight attendants".
Or civil servants and government workers
Didn't know I was a flight attendant. Air Canada, you owe me a job.
I feel véri attaqué. But let's be honête, I don't speak English OR Français. I speak Franglais.
@A L hmmm je me demande pourquoi tu te sens obligé de prouver ton existence pitoyable. D'ailleurs, check ton orthographe mon gars... j'aurais accepté "yeule" mais "yele" c'est vraiment gênant -_-
many do, I’m a furniture maker and along with German, speak both. :=)
My stepson told me he saw Jim Gaffigan at a show before he got big. I said "fame wise or physical size?" He said "both".
He's not that fat. He actually lost weight.
@@MisssKayy This message was approved by Lean Pockets
AHAHAHA
I'm so impressed that someone from the US actually knows Canadian culture and geography.
Yes because it is soo interesting.
I'm learning so much from Jim. If only geography and history were taught like this in school. 😂
Jim , never stop being funny. You’re great! God bless you.
As a francophone from Québec, I can tell that he nailed it! 😁
As a Francophone from Northern Ontario from parent born in Quebec, I concur

Just love the funny, clean, witty, and clever humor! Mr. Gaffigan, you are a treasure!
One of the best gifts: he pronounces Quebec properly in English
That is indeed very nice to see/hear
Instead of "Kwabec"?
Yep it's pronounced Qué (like oKAY) and bec (like David BECKham) Kaybeck=Québec
@@patgrenier2888 Keh-beck* . not KAY
@@elijah3757 nope, its Kay like in OKay, or even simpler just pronounce it like the letter "K"
Enfin de l'humour sur le Québec in english that is actually funny and intelligent. Merci
Yeah, first time finding an ''ANGLOPHONE'' stand up comedian funny while making fun of us Québécois
@@yannrondeau-chartrand8445 Parce que normalement il s'agit du Québec-bashing qu'on voit partout au (reste du) Canada, caché derrière la façade de l'humour.
@@jamesczhang bien vu
@@jamesczhang This guy made fun of all the provinces and it was as is.....FUNNY! but when he did the samething with Quebec, it's a problem????????
@@tylerrood6643 I said "normalement", and I stand by that statement in saying that NORMALLY "humour" on Québec are nothing but prejudice hidden behind the façade of humour.
Ça laisse entendre, alors, que cette fois ci je trouve pas que son humour soit du Québec-bashing.
Discovered you last winter and I love your humor. Always funny, intelligent and respectful. Can’t stop watching. All the best to you and your family! A French Canadian living in Montréal!
Pls do more bits about Canada , this is comedy gold. Sincerely, a Albertan
toronto and the rest of the country laughed and laughed
Jim is very intelligent, his comedy reflects that, and that’s why he’s so appealing. Watch Dinner With The Gaffigans and see him interact with his kids and wife. He’s a nice human and a funny guy.
I’ve seen the new shows and I’m still excited about seeing the clips!! Lol. Laughter. It’s what we all need. Thank you Jim!!
“Oh good! Now I can ignore the same messsge twice!” So true 😁
Jim, I must say you are now my favorite comedian of all time. Your material and delivery is hilarious.
Keep it up and keep laughing.
Your comedy is so uplifting. You have no idea how many people you cheer up. Thank you and your wonderful family.
As a scarecrow, People say i`m outstanding in my field.
But hay, it`s in my jeans.
You went for the bonus points. You got guts kid.
Buahahahaha!
💀
Awesome.
Dad, dis you?
Funny, from a Quebec fan 🙂
My dad's parents were Quebecois! My grandma was french, grandpa english. They made it work LOL
Alors vous parlez toujours français?
What are you LOLing about? What's the joke?

I'm French Canadian. Good stuff! I will watch your special.
I literally spat my breakfast when he said: “oh good, now I can ignore the same message twice”
🤣🤣🤣
If you want to experience how someone can be absolutely over-the-top polite AND condescending, go to any Government of Québec office to accomplish any bureaucratic task. It sounds like a paradox, but my government has perfected this art. ⚜️
lol
Aren't all governments like that?
"I am terribly sorry you are so stupid that you cannot fill out this simple 10 page form"
Quebec has perfected obsessive bureaucracy to a tee
"Thou shalt not speak the Lord's name in vain!.
French-Canadians had been screwed over by the Church for such a long time, that the swear words they developed were a way to rebel against the Church, by perverting the names of holy relics into words spoken in anger, disgust, and violence. The root faded as the Church's influence did, but the swears remain.
Now, the gravity of the swear is determined by the number of syllables it contains.
"christ" < "osti" < "chalice"
I've always found it funny how english speakers are(/act) so surprise by the swearing of French Canadian. English speaker also use "the Lord's name in vain!". How many times have you heard an english speaker use words/swears such as; Jesus!, Christ! Jesus Christ! God! Goddamn! For Christ's Sake, For God's Sake, For Heaven's Sake.
As the person above pointed out, this is partly due to a very large portion of French Canadian roots being Roman Catholic.
We also use all the above swears in French but more so in situation of disgust, terror, being surprise, or in disappointment and less so in anger; except maybe for; Christ! Goddamn!
French Canadian use the following swears more commonly when angered; Calisse! (from Chalice) Tabarnak! (from Tabernacle) Criss! (from Christ) Esti! (from Host (french. Hostie). Saint Ciboire! or Ciboire! (from Holy Ciborium/ Ciborium (french. Ciboire) Calvaire! (from Calvary/Golgotha (french. mont du Calvaire)). We also use the swear Goddamn! but in a slightly different way instead of using word God we use word Christ instead; Maudit Criss! (Maudit is french for Damn, and Criss is the swear form of Christ).
The following 4 are also use but either when a little bit upset or with other above swear or by older generation: Sacrement! (From Sacrament) Viarge! (From Virgin (as in the holy virgin) (french. Vierge)) Bapteme! (from Baptism) Simonaque!(from Simony).
Don't forget, you have to accord the swear: "tabarnak de chaise" "tabarnak d'ostie de chris"
@@katwatson007 It's a slightly more involved, since they can be used as nouns, verbs and adjectives, and as @ShrankTheFirst mentionned, they have an incremental value of inherent gravity. Couple that to the fact you can chain them to compound their individual gravity ratings and you have quite the task to effectively weave the appropriate swear!
@@raphaeljodoin58 Everything I've learned was from the movie Bon cop bad cop!
And you can combine them for greater effect: "Ostie de câlisse de tabarnak".
We watched the new show on prime today. Great job, Jim! We loved it!
You are the best Jim. Helped to get me through the Pandemic - in fact I am laughing right now! I grew up in Ottawa on the Quebec/Ontario border and currently live in Quebec as an Anglophone. Really appreciate your well-thought out Canadian routines - nailed it.
Thanks for nailing the short bit on Acadians! It's the best description in the fewest words I've ever heard!
Being born and raised in Montreal, but living in Ottawa for the last 24 years...this is SO funny! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You have brought so much laughter to my life over the years. I hope you'll start gigging again soon. PLEASE COME TO VEGAS! I want to see you perform live before I die!
Hey buddy! Person from Québec here, your piece is pretty spot on, especially the curse words.... Except for the fact that we are taught english in elementary from 4 th grade since the 80's. Just thought you should know that. Most people from Québec over 30 years old are actually bilingual and about 3/4 of people not born in the province speak no french at all.
the world need more Gaffigan, man... we love this guy up here in the great white north ! i just love his positivity, even though he is struggling like us to get through this Covid thing and to be honest, the tone is better than ever.. We need you Gaff ! Alors... encore !!
I love Quebec too. Montreal, old Montreal, and the Eastern Townships. Places to stay in the Eastern Townships that are very reasonable (downright cheap for what you get) but elegant are The Ripple Cove and The Manoir Hovie. Breakfast and dinner are included. Both are beyond excellent gourmet meals. Jacket required for dinner. Careful because it is really easy to gain weight. Absolutely beautiful settings.
I went to the old Montreal as a kid. I got a bone from ragu stuck in my throat and nearly choked to death, and my sister spilled a huge lemonade on my lap at a sidewalk cafe, and got to drink warm coke. It was awesome! I looked at the stop sign and it said ARRET and I was like whaaaa? It's so different here.
As someone who was born and raised in the Eastern Townships, you are absolutely correct. We have beautiful places here.
@@jjryan1352 " I looked at the stop sign and it said ARRET and I was like whaaaa? It's so different here." Ahaha that's so cute
@@bastobasto4866 yeah it was a bit of a culture and political shock for a young kid. Warm coke and saw them take down the Canadian flag in the old quarter and put up the flag of Quebec.
What is it about Jim that is so universally enjoyable to watch and listen to? He looks like my old social studies teacher...approachable but sort of sardonic. The way that James raises that one eyebrow...he is so masterful in his presentation. Oddly enough..he could do no wrong...he should run for some sort of government office. He's a flirt and a rascal all at the same time. Why Hollywood doesn't find him the perfect vehicle..I don't understand. Gaffigan Rules!!
The funniest thing I ever saw in Canada was when I was with my parents in Ottawa waiting for a tour of the Parliament building. While waiting, a gentleman came out and asked "Does anyone want to take a in french (gesturing for a show of hands)? No one. Okay" and left to return into the building. A minute later, another man came out and said something like "Le tour de Parliament en Francais?" Immediately, several families rose to follow him.
Jim Gaffigan: you have my permission to use this in your routine.
I love this guy! Good clean fun. no unnecessary foul language.
Saw the Special on Amazon, loved it and I find myself coming to your youtube channel now just to get a "Fix" of your form of comedy!!! Have always loved your stuff, one of the best comedians out there!!! Thanks for doing the youtube stuff and giving us a little extra of "JIM"!!
I (USA) went to Quebec City on a conference years ago. I don’t speak more than a few words of French. I love to wander around off the tourist paths. I walked into a store right behind someone who made the mistake of starting a conversation with the shopkeeper in English. The shopkeeper stared at him and replied in French. They couldn’t communicate so the man left. I said hello in French, asked the shopkeeper how he was doing, in French. He answered in French, then said in perfect English “what can I get for you?” He was offended that the previous customer assumed he could and would speak English. I showed respect by starting in French. That made all the difference.
This used to be very very common. It happens less now, but it still can off the beaten track for sure. I don't blame people for at least asking for an effort.
You know it just hit me
Jim Gaffigan reminds me of that kid in A Christmas Story. I didn't notice until I saw him wearing those glasses.
I re-watch Jim's Canada bits often, hahaha. No one has made me laugh as much in a routine about Canada . This is the best, and kinda accurate :) 🥰🇨🇦
I love that you pronounce Quebec perfectly! If there's ever a Far Side animated movie made, YOU MUST do the voice for some of the characters! Brilliant stuff as always!
Ps- I thought I was subbed this whole time and couldn't figure out why I wasn't getting notifications.. I actually told my husband that I think Jim Gaffigan hates me lol 🥺😢
He probably doesn't hate you but, if you're not food he probably doesn't love you either so... 🤷
I've been watching Jim Gaffigan since he was "lighter" and had less hair, (? - yes, life is not fair) and he was funny, witty, and memorable then, only getting better with time. LOVED the map humor (who else can make a map funny), and oh my God, the time zone. Best part is you have to watch, can't just listen, so you don't miss the facial expressions and voices. Thank you so much! Huge fan!
I want to apologize for everything but i'm better than everyone 😀
C'est vrai!
I am soory you are so dumb.
@@houchi69 Takes one to know one.
@@marcorock7031 Lol...it was what he Jim said after he said "I want to apologize for everything but I'm better than everyone". Clearly you weren't really watching the stand-up
I used to be conceded, but then i thought I am too good for that.
Had never heard of you before Covid
Thank you for all the postings !
I grew up five miles from Canada in North Dakota. I tripped over your map of Canada piece.
Brilliant !
Thanks

Just discovered you on UA-cam. After listening to a few clips about Canada you pretty nailed it. Your jokes are brilliant, subtle! Your bit for the maritimes (Saint John/St.John’s)
is hilarious. I was not expecting your mention of the acadians, thanks to acknowledge the deportation. I am «acadien» and I often regret that so much attention is placed on this
tragic historic fate. Don’t get me wrong I regret very much was happened to us. Your punch line is funny and positive and reflects what I think we should remember first:
we came back to our lands! Cheers from New Brunswick! :-)
Mr. Gaffigan has the unerring ability to raise observation to the level of art. His funny bone dowsing rod always hits pay dirt. In these tense and unforgiving times, we need the joy laughter brings and the recognition no human is without foibles. If we can laugh at ourselves, we can love one another.
He mentioned Louisiana. My home state! Woo hoo. On parle français en Louisiane.
That’s a pretty specific topic for stand up, but not used enough, I loved it
Good job man, I'm from Québec and I can tell you did your research both on us and Canada. I'm sure even most Canadians don't know about the swear words! If you plan on doing another show about here, I really recommend looking more into the language politics both in Québec and at the federal level, there's a lot of good crunchy uncomfortable material sitting there.
You nailed it!! We were so surprised how much you knew about Canada! Awesome special!!
Thank you for these clips, Mr Jim 😊
Glad you like them!
@@jimgaffigan Hi Jim, I figure I should repost my earlier comment to Nick McConnell: "Jim needs to know there are not 1 million French speakers in New Brunswick. Total population is perhaps 770,000 of which 40 % are French speakers. But I nit pick. Now as an aside, I was in Paris 25 years ago with a bilingual Acadian (business trip) from Petit Rocher NB and we were waiting for a bus and when one rolled up and my Acadian friend spoke French to the driver asking where he was actually going, the driver said(in English) and I quote: "Sir, can you speak English, I do not understand". Afterwards that was a running joke for years.
Hearing an American's experience in Quebec never fails to crack me up. They always talk about us like we're a bunch of freaks 😅
I love Jim's humour but this actually made me LMAO
I'm French Canadian
Your spelling of humour gave it away :)
@@riverraisin1 She could've been British ... before you read the last part of her comment, of course. ;-)
@@riverraisin1 No, we all would put the "u". Colour, Valour, and some more I'm sure I'm missing. Has nothing to do with french. It's proper English.
very funny, "i'm holding my ribs". I tried to translate that to a friend in France, that didn't work. hahahah
"Quebecois" is a real word, I had to look it up.

If you can mix both languages in conversation in Quebec it’s called “Franglais”. If your mother tongue is neither English or French in Quebec you’re an “Allophone”...a 3rd phone plan!

My brother dated a girl from Quebec for awhile. They visited us and I overheard her talking to her mom. " Bonjour, blah blah blah" then in an instant, "Mom, no, don't be ridiculous, I'M NOT DOING THAT!!" It was so funny, but,dang, that chick was psycho. He didn't marry her, yay.
@@slivxr2186 Here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, my favorite language is Spanglish. It's best when spoken by a feisty mexican girl. The cuss words are all English, and the rest is a mix.

That jacket looks good on Jim! His whole look is great here!
Not being mean, but I wonder if it was Jeannie or Marre that picked it out. My husband got an all new wardrobe over our years being married.

This was really funny and I think you hit the French nail on the head regarding the Quebecois.
I agree, we must come across as arrogant sometimes but we are not mean at all (compare to the Parisians...). To me it's a survival mechanism I guess.
As a Canadian I agreed with and thoroughly enjoyed each and every masterful joke. Brilliant
There's always the flip side, Winnipeg in July/August is insanely hot.
Jim. Great job doing the deep dive research. Makes things way funnier.
I’m so excited
je suis québecois, and i approuve this méssage. i realy like your french accent, CALISSE lol, your my new favorite thing
What is funny is probably most québécois understood what he said and laughed about it. Try the opposite with anglophone and you wont have much reactions... 😂
😂I learned more about Canada in those four minutes that I ever knew!! Thanks Jim!
“The English speakers agreed to take French in school and the French speakers agreed to continue speaking French” 😂
we learned english in school and its mandatory to get any diploma
Quite the opposite in my experience actually. The only part that didn't make sense to me. We francophones will learn english AND stick to it, as opposed to anglophones who make sure to never use french again once they're out of school.
Jim is the best.
When Jim announced his favorite thing about Quebec, I thought he was going to say poutine.
Same
He did a whole video on poutine.
That's great :) I'm French Canadian and I found it really funny. Good stuff and very precise. Thank you, or Merci :)
Love this! I am from Montreal!
Thanks for watching!
Super funny …one of my favorite tops lol 😂
The truth is, there're more Quebecers capable of speaking English (proportionally) than Canadians speaking French in Canada
Nah
@@Ryan-Petre Ta guele sale con.
@@Ryan-Petre of course, it's not even close
@@charlesdansereau-menard3347 i don't think so
@@Ryan-Petre Man ... Come on. In Québec, english is taught at a young age in every. single. elementary. school. in. the. province. We're in 2020, not in 1920 ... Even my 70 years-old mom who wasn't even taught english in the 1950's in elementary school, she now speaks a quite decent english and can hold a conversation just fine (without being perfect of course) and often travels to USA and the rest of Canada.
And she's 70. Younger Québécois people have no problem with english. Apart from school here (elementary + high school + Cégep) , english is everywhere on tv and music and internet.
But the french-speaking population outside Québec is thin. As for anglophones outside Québec speaking a decent french ?? VERY very thin (not inexistent but very very thin.)
I'm legit so impressed with your Canadian knowledge, Jim!
Hey now I can ignore the same message twice 🤣
Love you Jim. So intelligently funny jokes😂😂😂
... and they're called flight attendants, brilliant
You really have a keen insight into Canadian culture.
My late life partners parents own a cabin with a large piece of land at Lac du Otter, Countie Pontiac Quebec, ( One of the westernmost counties of Quebec 90km Northwest of Ottawa) it's kind of strange there as you can tell who is a unionist or a separatist by looking at the flag in the yards if it's a Maple Leaf, unionist, if it's a Fluer de Lis, separatist, if you go into a store, and they speak to you in French you have to reply, Ainglais sil vous plais! ( English if you please!) If they switch tongues, unionist, if they don't separatist, they'll even count your change in French! However if you are ever in that part of Quebec, the bakery in Shawville on the Ottawa River has the best pastries on earth!
What are you if you have both flags then?
James Zhang if there are both flags, it means you’re at Service Canada location
