Canadian Border Patrol

Totally fake border agency, absolutely real Canadian culture

Canadian Border Patrol Investigates...

Canadian Sports Part 1

Ep. 8 - July 15, 2019

Jordan and Ryan investigate Canadian sports, and find Olympic gold, grueling feats done for the good of humanity, and a loudmouth with louder suits. (Also, We still The North!)

The CBC’s “Biggest Moments in Canadian Sports History” list (https://tinyurl.com/y6dedyqw) was a great source of info for this episode.

You can see every Hockey Night In Canada opening in this video (https://youtu.be/Y6WE3z_—HU, or https://youtu.be/Y6WE3z_—HU?t=348 if you just want the one we played on the show).

This CBC article (https://tinyurl.com/y4g75s2r) revisits the Gushue rink’s win. Apparently, Mark Nichols didn’t have a 100% accuracy, but he did have a 97% accuracy, so let’s call it a rounding error.

This video (https://youtu.be/lMf2fAXPS1Q) shows Henderson’s Summit Series winning goal and the (very 70s) reaction.

Don’t forget to check out the Coach’s Corner Transcribed videos we used, “No Time Left” (https://youtu.be/4FFq6bblau0) and “Tyler Toffoli” (https://youtu.be/9bZkONoi15E). If you liked them, here’s the channel page (https://tinyurl.com/y2f48ezs).
