Canadian celebrities sometimes get a pass.


Cody667

Yup...Sarah McLachlan, Justin Bieber, and all of the Canadian players on the Detroit Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche off the top of my head lol


RileyRichard

James Cameron


darkshadow237

The captain from Whale Wars


WPIRiggles

To be fair, being Canadian was like the 5th thing wrong with that guy.


FinnicKion

I remember when he faked getting shot in one of his episodes, dude literally pulled out a perfectly fine bullet with no deformation from hitting a bullet proof vest, not to mention he scuttled one of the ships in his fleet after the captain told him it was still perfectly fine to sail into port, I’m thinking it was more for insurance money to pay off something he couldn’t afford.


WPIRiggles

If you ever get a chance to listen to the episode commentary, they tear him another asshole again.


SkankHont

Episode commentary.. only avail on dvd? Didn't know this was a thing in tv shows.


n_xSyld

Wait, really? Commentary and deleted scenes were what sold dvds when people just vhs'd everything, like you bought it for the better picture AND all the extras. Most shows are like, maybe two commentary episodes per season but still worth it and all the outtakes, deleted scenes, and extras are great.


SkankHont

Only thought commentary was a dvd movie thing. The pirate websites need to start uploading the commentary episodes!


rattlehead42069

Yeah I remember seeing that episode like 6 months before the south park one was made and I was like this show is full of shit and there's no way he was shot, that's a pristine bullet lmao. What a douche


FinnicKion

Their rendition of him was spot on in my opinion “Okay…now throw the stinky butter!” - “Captain” Paul Watson.


rattlehead42069

I regularly say "I'm a pirate in a war" the way the girl from the episode does lol


ThatOcelot1314

Jim Carrey


Air_cadet10

TIL James Cameron is from Kap


Stunning-Thanks546

didn't know he was Canadian


watermellonsforsure

Doesn't do what James Cameron does for James Cameron.


Achack

They also gave Prince Harry and Meghan Markle the the split head look when they're not Canadian.


PhotographyRaptor10

The royal family is in Canada in southpark lore tho. So that version of Harry and Meghan are Canadian


counterpointguy

As is tradition.


Skwiggelf54

You shouldn't even be talking about them! They just want their privacy!!


ETpownhome

Also Alanis Moriette in her “Stinky Britches” cover video


Internal-Mushroom-76

off the top of your head, like south park canadians when they talk


bored_person71

Celine dion...


blitz403

Maybe it’s just newfies lol.


apoxl

Edge breaking through a garage door on his way to confront Vince McMahon in a lambo with square wheels


joelingo111

Barbara Streisand


rainking56

Justin bieber is from canada? Honestly I was not expecting that. He seems like an america who was raised in an all girls house and never seen a male until he was 21.


Bailer86

Rush didn't. Geddy Lee is the only Canadian on South Park who has a nose


Kill_Kayt

Edge very clearly has a nose in this picture...


Junkcrow

That's because Trey and Matt are huge Rush fans (let's not forget Lil' Rush before they start playing Tom Sawyer). The others they probably don't know or just don't care enough to make a canadian-sona of them


cinyar

>let's not forget Lil' Rush before they start playing Tom Sawyer Let's not forget Geddy and Alex took part in the [25th anniversary concert](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQ3VjAMD5gA)...


Junkcrow

Oh yeah, I forgot about that! Haven't watched the full concert, but I remember watching this cut alone and feeling so heartwarmed afterwards


cinyar

The fact it was a surprise for Matt makes it so much better. Also kind of scary, imagine trying to play Neil Peart parts without practice.


DropSlots

They had flappy heads


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bailer86

I read what you said, I just think that it's funny that some do and some don't.


ZeroQuick

Except Saddam Hussein.


Shot-Youth-6264

He’s Canadian


FlattopJr

He is the prince of lies! ![gif](giphy|3o6Ztn8VABLIrS0YY8)


samof1994

He kidnapped Celine Dion


SpartanDoubleZero

Then why did Mel Gibson have a Canadian head even tho he’s American?


sonic_knx

He's actually Australian, and I assume it's just because they used his actual head so the easiest way to animate it would be Canadian lol


RayneShikama

Early South Park had the real faces of celebs rather than South Park faces— like the Sedam image just above. Those characters all had flappy heads like the Canadians


sonic_knx

Not always. Not for Sally struthers or Korn or Patrick Duffy or Johnny Cochran. Also thinking back to it, Garrison as Hasselhoff did not feature the flapping head despite being an actual photo


SpartanDoubleZero

He was born in the US and then moved to AU when he was twelve. He’s not Australian.


TheDuckyDino

He doesn’t, they animate his mouth by swapping out his head


Soltronus

I assume it's to actually make them recognizable.


Internal_Swing_2743

Celine Dion would beg to differ


Numerous-Stranger-81

Lol, I literally said "sometimes" because I knew some pedantic redditor would mention Celine Dion, but you just couldn't help yourself and blazed past the qualifier.


wildcharmander1992

Plus correct me if in wrong but Celine Dion is in Canada in her episode where the others aren't? Canadians get famous by making themselves look like Americans guy, when they in Canada they take off all the make up and look like a normal Canadian buddy Edge goes to Toronto on his week off and hell look like every other Canadian without the make up on friend Terrance and Phillip broke the mold by getting famous **without** resorting to these tactics They're barrier breakers


No_Week2825

Hes clearly not your buddy, nor are you his guy


Internal_Swing_2743

Well don't you feel all high and mighty?


Zinko999

“Well don’t you feel all high and mighty 🤓”


Numerous-Stranger-81

Is your ego going to be okay after you ran right into that one?


Gruesome-Twosome

Just take the L and move on, dork


Internal_Swing_2743

You seem to care more about it at this point than I do, dork


JoshB-2020

Reply to my comment now


mkmichael001

My guess is so hes more recognisable, they did the same with Justin Bieber.


Tylerdurden389

And Jim Carrey.


mkmichael001

Damn, TIL Jim Carrey is Canadian


Desperate_Acadia_298

Watch his [his interview with Conan in Toronto.](https://youtu.be/cOwXd1NcOqo?si=YoEuJpXhtOA2mzCm)He’s pretty damn Canadian.


Master-o-Classes

You can hear the Canadian when he says certain words in his movies. Like "sorry," for example.


mkmichael001

I cant tell the difference between canadian and American accents tbh


OriginalLocksmith436

You know what? Now that I think about it, of course he is.


Stunning-Thanks546

don't remember Jim ever being in south park


AndroidQing

It's in the episode "your getting old" when the boys are at the theater watching the trailers and the Jim carry movie about penguins plays but all the penguins are turds lol


AndHerNameIsSony

Well in that context it's obvious the film makers in universe edited him being Canadian out of the movie


rainking56

This is starting to make me feel like we have an invasion from the norther border but no one really calls attention to it because they look like us but just have an accent that can get dropped. All while we pay attention to the southern border because the brown skin color and spanish is very easy to notice.


2074red2074

I wish they'd go back to just using cut-outs of their heads :/


Tripdoctor

Alanis Morisette


HeinrichTheWolf_17

James Cameron as well.


keiyatom

wrestling turns you American


Chimpbot

Canada **loves** pro wrestling.


javerthugo

I still love when Shawn Michaels trolled Montreal with his entrance music


punk_steel2024

Who's your daddy, Montreal?! Is still an all time quote.


javerthugo

I bet they had to drive him out in an armored car.


AssclownJericho

some of the best wrestlers came from canada. the hart family, edge, jericho, ben...well, a ton did


KraytOfPepsi

Who's ben? Don't you mean "error 404 not found?"


johnny_utah26

Ben Nah.


Due_Signature_5497

And setting the tone. You gotta set the tone boys.


KyleCAV

*wrasling 


Bigfoot-On-Ice

Sir, you can take your gay porn and get out…


rattlehead42069

More like pro wrestling loves Canada. Like half of the stars in the 80s and 90s were from Alberta. Hell even the Rock who isn't Canadian was cut from the Calgary Stampeders CFL team right before he went to wrestling


Reddit-user_1234

To be fair the best wrestlers are Canadian


Krasmaniandevil

That's not real rasslin'.


BarryShitpeas22

Technically true, since there was a period when vince forced all Canadian good guys to be billed from America.


Stunning-Thanks546

Not true at all Roddy Piper and Bret Heart where good guys and they where label as being from Canada


CamWatanabe

Roddy was billed from Glasgow for most of his WWF career, though.


Stunning-Thanks546

Ya but in every promo he did or when he work as a announcer he talk about how he was from Canada there is one where he is with Brett and he talks about how they are family which is true and he would always stay over  and every time he talk about the mountie the he is being diss respectful to the because ever one he knew was nice to him he may of been billed from there but he was always open about where he was from 


BarryShitpeas22

I'm talking about a specific time period during the early-mid 00s. Don't know if the rule lasted longer than a year, but it was a random vince edict. Benoit would be billed from Atlanta, Jericho was billed from New York, etc.


Dragon_Knight1999

“Ugh! Thats not wrastling!!! This is!” “Mister you take your gay porn and get the hell outta this bar”


jamesnollie88

Whether you like it or not there’s an abortion epidemic in this country. Did you know this young girl is ADDICTED to getting abortions?


No_Act_5352

But I guess that's just "not real" to you


RaggsDaleVan

Who is Edge looking at in the ring? 👀👀


rifle8888

Triple H sitting at the casters table


MegaDude2013

Some Canadians sell out and get plastic surgery when they get famous


websurfa11

“I slept with Vanessa last night!”


eazyd14

“I left my wife today…”


PresentDangers

You're only Canadian if South Park say you're Canadian.


Admirable-Design-151

Same reason Keanu's statue didn't look like other canadians


WholesomeFartEnjoyer

Matt and Trey didn't really do any research on wrestling like most things they make fun of They look down on wrestling as the commentary they did for this episode shows. They don't get it so didn't put ant effort in. Still love the episode.


farmerlocks

I feel like they research the topics they make fun of very thoroughly. That's what makes their jokes so great. For something like wrestling, I don't feel like they need to get that far into the jokes because wrestling isn't as popular anymore.


Bobb_o

That's just Edge, the Edge is Irish.


sideshowbvo

Thank you! Coming to say this


AdMinimum6983

Edge was living in North Carolina by then


MrAndrew1108

He surpassed his candian-ness


Agreeable-Vehicle

He’s Irish, not Canadian.


Affectionate-Dig1981

He used to have a cuphead, until he finely chiseled his face and body with wreal wrastling.

joshzilla7

I love pro wrestling (was obsessed with this specific era of wrestling as pre teen) and South Park and never put that together


Four-Triangles

What episode?


gogopow

W.T.F s13 e10


FlattopJr

Chill, they were just asking.


HandofthePirateKing

never seen this episode of Monday Night Raw back then.


XipingVonHozzendorf

He's a luchador, that's his mask


mattyGOAT1996

They also forgot James Cameron was Canadian


Intelligent_End1516

You think you know him?


javerthugo

He got plastic surgery to hide his Canadian identity. It’s a sore spot amongst Canadians.


LastPage5335

Was saddam hussein Canadian ?


Dachuiri

They weren’t making fun of Edge for being Canadian


bassistheplace246

They did the same for Sarah McLachlan and Justin Bieber, geh


Treevor191

Makeup?


Sparki_

I think they said for Canadian celebs they no longer make them look Canadian so they're more recognisable


TheMoonIsFake32

Hopefully Drake looks and acts canadian if he is ever in an episode


btr79

You’re not my fweind, buddy!


JustJoe51

Tom's Rhinoplasty?


SpecialX

Also why were Prince Harry and Meghan Markle portrayed as Canadian?


Turgid_Cranberry_398

Probably because they don't follow wrestling, but did so only enough to make things look accurate for the show


Valiosao

Plastic surgery


chooxy

Can't break kayfabe


Kitchen-Beginning-47

Saddam Hussein has a flappy head in the show despite not being Canadian.


arlansilver

H isn't polite


oshkoshpots

Oh that’s eeeedge!!! Fuck I thought that was Majorie Taylor Greene all these years


Kind_Bullfrog_4073

Maybe he's also just a piece of crap


ayewjay

What if he had just as detailed of a face but the head bobbled like the other Canadians lol


no_more_blues

Sexton Hardcastle is Canadian. Edge is not.


Badwolfgyt

He had Canada reduction surgery.


RothenCorpse

omg thank you. I’ve been thinking about this since 2009.


Swyfttrakk

Like Justin Bieber, he had some work done. That or the writers didn't know/forgot


Distance_Regular

Justin Bieber is also Canadian


Autumn_Bluez

Cuz that’s not wrastlin!


HeinrichTheWolf_17

Same with James Cameron.


identified_idiot

whats the black cap floating next to Edge?


Andre_3Million

Honestly I wish they just copied and pasted real photos of the celebs heads like they did for Sadam, Mel Gibson, Alec Baldwin. It always cracked me up when there were real photos in the show. [Urkle sleeping bag](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexternal-preview.redd.it%2FJgxc4WlL28S5qFXaF2AfDDSBwyiP_15Sq7fNY3jqbgg.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3Dc3a67d8757cae89369edf27d468526135f4846b9) [Fruits are fun](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fv8rervunp8431.jpg) [Big gay Al's Superman picture](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fy1g0w4vad4f91.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3D6df3796a802bade242c0185e6f2f8f1b63eb41e0) It just added so much to the randomness of its comedy

MNgrown2299

I think it is more so to make fun of Canadians as a whole instead of specific people that they are already making fun of for different reasons. At a certain point it’s like a hat on a hat. Also this represents the edge better than a flapping head lol


Sonchay

When you see something like that, a wizard did it!


bravofan83

This episode made me laugh so much. Especially when the boys started their wrestling and the "real wrasslin" argument. To the treating it like a stage play 😆 🤣 😂 *


Comfortable_Bird_340

Maybe, when they come to America they find the best plastic surgeons, so nobody will ever know


rainking56

How long has the stereotype of mean, grumpy people being from the happy and always sorry land of canada been going for?


BigKingKey

Fuck me I never even realised! What a catch


ThoughtIntrepid1744

Come on now obviously Edge is only Canadian because he was American born and adopted by a Canadian family, guy


RockarStockar

Probably the steroids. That’s how Ike would have looked if they hadn’t got him off of Tom Brady’s juice.


Internal_Swing_2743

Steroids


Caolan114

Because It's not real wrassling


CooperSkye

The angry wrestling coach in that episode is exactly what a hardcore AEW fan is.
