We have these really awful ones for some new cell phone company. Kodoo or something. SOOO annoying. i will try to find something to post later. And then i was in Montreal on the weekend and there were basically the annoying people of the commericals at their booth in a mall in stupid 80s aerobics wear doing stupid stretches. THIS MAKES ME HATE YOUR PHONES AND EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU!
However, if anyone has seen a Canadian Heritage Moment commerical, they are the greatest things ever invented simply for their cheese level!
I think you should write a letter to Kodoo that says:
Dear Kodoo:
Your commercials MAKE ME HATE YOUR PHONE AND EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU!!
Love,
Kristy
So are these heritage moment things real? I could only find spoofs. This seemed better quality but it was still funny.
Real? |

that is definatly fake. It is from This Hour Has 22 Minutes which is a spoof/comedy/poltical/John Stewart kinda thing.
I will post some real ones when i get home. My friend used to work for Historica, the company that produces them and has them all on dvd and we had a marathon one night while drinking Canadian beer and eating maple donuts. Thats right. We should have put on Mountie hats and snow shoes and we would have been every Cdn Stereotype.
And yes, i should write that letter. Maybe they will send me free stuff. WHICH I COULD SMASH! |

I have hated DFS for 2 years now.
Every comercial they put on tv makes my blood boil.
All thier ads are aimed at the gullible people out there. |

why dont these irish children have irish accents? And how do they know French?? no one knows. I used this in a university presentation about the difference between Cdn and American immigration policies. Our American video had Felicia Richaud from the Cosby show
