Thumbs up Canadian Everyday Regular Normal Life

We have started a youtube channel dedicated to, yep, Canadian Everyday Regular Normal Life. We will post a different activity or item here every week (hopefully)

We will include all the things that we now take for granted in Toronto, Canada. Some boring, like money zzzz and others that can be fun, like trying to order 3 separate meal things at a Timmies with an English Accent.

This is all meant to be entertaining while still being educational. Please feel free to comment and subscribe to the channel if you wish.

Heres the video, Canadian Money:

I think that might convey rather too accurate an impression of the fun to be had in Toronto.

I expect the next episode will be riveting. It's going to be called "The Larch".

Don't discourage them, every documentary film maker had to start somewhere. And I can see that this series would be welcomed information from people emigrating from Northern Britain.

I think the choice of carpet was all wrong. Hardwood flooring would be more appropriate. As for the $5 note, it was too old. A nice crisp bit of folding should have been used. I blame the casting director.

You should ignore the comments from the others as I quite liked it. Despite being able to read the numbers on them I found I was always getting confused between the various coins and notes. Now I won't get ripped off in my local coffee shop, so thanks.
