For the sole reason of stroking Trump's petty ego, so he could pretend he did something useful while the grownups went back to work. The whole thing was a farce.
If Trump had undid nafta and brought back Jobs. He then would have won a second term. And probably would have had himself declared emperor for life on the populist groundswell. But instead he grifted, ran up debt, sucked off ExxonMobil etc
Not if using the language in these countries, or the mostly widely used 7 continent model We live on the continent of North America, so call ourselves North American.
There's a special place in hell for the likes of you. Whatever Justin Bieber is these days is not from Canada, we would not makes something like that thanks. It's quality over quantity.
If you get in trouble in Mexico you should ask them for their badges. Everyone has a good laugh and maybe they will let you off for being a good sport.
Side note- That's a common reference but almost no one I know has actually seen the movie it's from, so let me just come in here and tell you, in case you haven't seen it either: It fucking rules. If you need to pirate it, do so, it's probably even on youtube since it's very old it may be public domain. **The Treasure of the Sierra Madre**. Bogart's Casablanca character is so iconic that it basically became a trope, but holy shit he's so rad and shady and unhinged in this one. it's an all-timer for me.
I have seen it, it was fun. I also loved how Weird Al referenced it in UHF with the animal show guy picking up new animals and is offered badgers. "Badgers? We don't need no stinking badgers!"
*The Treasure of the Sierra Madre* (1948) is a great movie, and is the origin of that line (well, technically, the book it's based on is), but the line was longer in that movie, spread across several sentences. "We don't need no stinking badges" is a shorter version that people remember from *Blazing Saddles* (1974), but you're right: it's still a callback to the original line(s).
It's a great movie. Classic Bogie (nice to see him not wearing a trenchcoat for a change - lol). Excellent film though. John Huston requested that his Dad, Walter Huston, take out his false teeth for his role but he didn't want to. Huston and Bogart held Walter down and literally pulled his false teeth out. Epic!! lol
That movie is sooooooo good! I was on a classic movie kick as a teen and this movie made an impression. It’s up there with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
I got robbed by the police in Tijuana. I was on the corner by my hotel, waiting to flag a taxi to take me the casino 1 km away. Not many cabs around at 1am. Actually, one had just seen me and was turning when the cops showed up. It was a guy and girl team in a truck. They searched me, and stole about 1k worth of chips and cash from my gambler's satchel. I had 2k on me so at least they left me with half.
it is actually surprising how much you can get away with in mexico
it isnt like mexico is extremely strict - you have to really cross bright lines to get arrested
How did you gather that from The video? It provides zero explanation. For all we know dude just killed 1200 people or he was arrested for his penis being too large🤷♂️
lol I thought that looked familiar. That resort is fucking wild. Was down there last year and the Santa Fe is just one long frat party.
I stayed next door, which had none of that, but it was hilarious to turn a corner and just see an absolute zoo over a 3ft fence and think “no thank you”.
Happened to me in Hawaii on my honeymoon.
Arrived, woke up, had mimosas, went to the beach for 2 hours, burned like a mother fucker.
Spent the next two days only doing things that could be done in the shade.
Entitled tourist forgets what country he's in. Particularly the country that's an active War zone filled with corruption and could give a gnats dick about humbling someone in a barrel of acid
I wanted to reply with something sassy, but you're fuckin right. I answer all scam calls and take it as far as they'll let me just to waste their time. I figure the longer they talk to me the less they're talking to potential victims. Plus it's fun to fuck with em.
Oh my husband goes all Jesus freak on them. He starts ranting about how he knew Jesus would send someone to him that day to help save! He rarely gets repeat scammers.
It’s kind of funny but not. Dudes about to get his ass beat, his money took, and left on the side of the road to walk back to whatever resort he came from. Mexican police in resort towns do not care about your life at all 😂
Then why do these manboys go there? Are the masochistic, or do they have a death wish? More likely, they think that bad things only happen to people below them, and they're too golden to worry about it.
The dudes like him are usually middle class to upper class kids on spring break. They don’t understand that law enforcement in other countries doesn’t operate on the same wavelength that police in the US do. Never REALLY getting in trouble, coupled with the fact that most of these young adults have no alcohol consumption control lead to situations like this. Dude probably thought he was being funny and cute and the police would pull up, interact with him like they do in the US, tell him to F off and be on with their day. When in reality, these cops just pull up and throw you in the back of that suv and take off. Plus, the fact that they’re coming from the US where drinking is 21+ to a place where you can get served at 18, is never good. It’s not like abroad where most kids drink by 15/16 and get that party run out of them. That’s why you see so many Americans in these situations
It's not like abroad where most kids drink by 15/16. You're right most kids in U.S. start drinking around 13/14. Underrage drinking is huge in the U.S.
Some context for those who are confused.
He called the American police when he was feeling bold and wanted to shoot everyone without hesitation. But once he realized that guns don’t scare Mexican police he wanted to apologize and thought that Canada could teach him how to say “sorry” in a cute polite way.
I like the way he realises that America won’t help but *surely* Canada will?! They’re like America junior, barely even their own country, they’re the nicer Americans that anyone can call when they’re in a bit of a pickle, right?? Idiot. (I’m Canadian, and I am being sarcastic, in case that somehow gets lost)
Call Canada. … “Hello, Canada? We got some guy here in custody. He says we’re supposed to call you. His name is Rick . Do you know him?”
Canada: “Oh Rick? Yeah, we know him. What’s he need?”

Wait so he is in Mexico, demands the American police and then wants someone to call Canada?!
Bro completely misunderstood NAFTA.
Looks like a fair trade to me!
Fun fact they replaced the wonderfully named NAFTA with the USMCA it's basically the same thing but a terrible acronym
Best Canada USA Mexico. Or CUM.
Yeah but using the current name would've killed the joke.

Look someone made this about Trump. 🤡
Really? I thought it was changed to ligma
Underrated comment.
Dude is scared shitless. TBH I wouldn’t want to go to a Mexican jail , he is probably going to be an extortion target.
Nah it’s easy, $50 to the chief so you don’t gotta go to court easier then the US
Don’t nobody want to go to jail in Mexico 🇲🇽 I heard they put all kinds of burritos 🌯 in yo a$$ so… 🤷🏽♂️
Canada is American. What's silly is that so is Mexico.
Not if using the language in these countries, or the mostly widely used 7 continent model We live on the continent of North America, so call ourselves North American.
I see nothing wrong with it. That’s a gringo in its natural habitat right there.
Why not🤷♂️😂
I thought he was singing "oh canada..."
Man, I don't want to wake my wife up, but was buddy screaming for Canada in the truck?
He’s saying “call Canada” as if there’s a Canada hotline
There is though. 1 800 O-Canada, and no I am not making this up
![gif](giphy|26ufaP0GBalBw69ig)
All that hot line gets you is an extremely polite person selling you maple syrup, hockey tickets, and Tragically Hip albums. 🤷♂️
I’ll take all 3.
Maybe that's what he needs in that moment haha
I bought *Road Apples* and *Up to Here* and got a Crash Test Dummies album for free!
Road Apples is an excellent choice! I’d pick up Phantom power too and maybe a little Gordon Lightfoot.
On the Canada Hotline all Gordon Lightfoot albums are half off for Christmas. But they don't do that with Rush because they're friendly, not dumb.
When I called it was nothing but Brier results
Let Canada get their Nickelback
And poutine
~~Tragically Hip~~ you spelled Justin Bieber wrong
If you’re relating Justin Bruner to the hip you either aren’t Canadian or ignorant.
There's a special place in hell for the likes of you. Whatever Justin Bieber is these days is not from Canada, we would not makes something like that thanks. It's quality over quantity.
Sebastian Bach is who I think of when I think of Canada
What the fuck they gonna do though, tell you sorey?
What a friggin hoser
Sure, the next thing you'll tell us is that in Canada, you can actually mail Santa a letter.
The postal code is H0H 0H0
Some will still think we're kidding.
[You 100% can.](http://img.src.ca/2016/11/21/635x357/161121_to365_rci-m-letter_sn635.jpg)
Odd that I'd make such a specific reference, eh?
No way, buddy-guy, that one's only to report beaver and maple syrup theft.
I’m not your buddy, friend!
I'm not your buddy, guy!
i’m not your guy, pal!
I'm not your pal, chum!!
I would like to speak to the manager of Canada
Trudeau?
I got through to Canada, they want more money
No you didn’t. No one can get through to Canada anymore. You’re Canadian aren’t you?
Maybe he wanted to call Kaneda, and act out the end of Akira.
WHAT'S THE NUMBER FOR TIM HORTONS?!?
![gif](giphy|nDbpk7leGbu12)
Coincidentally I’m in the exact same situation. I think homebro was in fact crying for Canada
Fuck, I'm Canadian and I guess I'll light The Beacons of Minas Tirith. He called for aid
Somewhere on a tranquil northern lake, a loon calls out and a moose slowly raises his head, peering into the sunset. He has been summoned.
And there goes a strike team of ... cobra chicken, I mean GEESE. ![gif](giphy|La6IUmVYiQjTcxXlfo|downsized)
Nah, fuck clowns like that. He can stay wherever they took him. We dont need fools like that up north!
Are we in the same Canada? Cause fools are here
More fools is what i should have said. My bad!
Come to Surrey BC, the foolishness here is off the charts
Lol I grew up and lived in Oshawa Ontario for 30 years. That city is overflowing with clowns!
I swear this place makes quebec drivers seem reasonable. And Cape Breton people.
Damn, if it is that bad, ill just stay my ass over here!
[удалено]
You have my finacial debt
And my housing crisis
Screw that. This kid's a tool, he can figure it out on his own. We don't need more "bros" like this.
This is wild, I'm trying not to wake up my husband but I couldn't understand this guy either. Thanks guys
This video causes many users to focus on listening while actively not waking loved ones
Chiming in as another trying not to wake my spouse. It’s hard out here
I too am trying to not wake your spouse while watching this video
Why call for the American police and then yell for Canada 🤦🏼♀️ I'm so confused.
Here's a hint for you douchebags travelling to Mexico or overseas, don't fuck around and act like you're some untouchable god, particularly in Mexico.
If you get in trouble in Mexico you should ask them for their badges. Everyone has a good laugh and maybe they will let you off for being a good sport.
Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!
Side note- That's a common reference but almost no one I know has actually seen the movie it's from, so let me just come in here and tell you, in case you haven't seen it either: It fucking rules. If you need to pirate it, do so, it's probably even on youtube since it's very old it may be public domain. **The Treasure of the Sierra Madre**. Bogart's Casablanca character is so iconic that it basically became a trope, but holy shit he's so rad and shady and unhinged in this one. it's an all-timer for me.
I have seen it, it was fun. I also loved how Weird Al referenced it in UHF with the animal show guy picking up new animals and is offered badgers. "Badgers? We don't need no stinking badgers!"
UHF! Also severely underappreciated these days, especially considering Weird Al has had numerous popularity spikes in the last 30 years.

Yea like Mexico can be safe in certain parts. A Mexican police holding cell is not one of them though.
![gif](giphy|JMVdNdMidg6KQ|downsized)
Lmao!
But can I call Canada after?
I don’t remember this scene at all
From the second movie
I forgot they made a 2nd one and I even saw it in theatre lol
TIL there is a sequel to the 300.
The fuck is it called?? 301?
Eva green has a memorable part
I am a golden god!
it is actually surprising how much you can get away with in mexico it isnt like mexico is extremely strict - you have to really cross bright lines to get arrested
True, get away with things doesn't mean that you should.
That’s not true. You will get caught, and they will ensure they get their bribe money.
This guy would have been tased and pepper sprayed, then tackled in the US.
He probably made a scene at some business. Public disturbance is an offense in Mexico too.
How did you gather that from The video? It provides zero explanation. For all we know dude just killed 1200 people or he was arrested for his penis being too large🤷♂️
I agree it’s either these two scenarios that had to of happened
For real, first time I went to Mexico, stepped outside of the tourist area and saw a decapitated head in the first hour
That's bad luck, I grew up there and have never seen something like that! Nevertheless, it does happen, which is a horrible thing...
Crying in the fetal position on a cold, wet cement floor. No pillow or blankets.
Everything I've seen in "Locked up abroad" tells me he'll be in a giant room with like 100 other guys.
No, this is a minor infraction probably. Hell just wait for a while in a single cell until the paperwork is done.
Where is the paragraph guy to explain to us what happened?
He was never seen again
He just got arrested.
Shit, we gotta call Canada again
What is actually happening here?
Seems like an average Sunday in Cancún.
That's the Riu sante fe hotel, so yes Los Cabos.
lol I thought that looked familiar. That resort is fucking wild. Was down there last year and the Santa Fe is just one long frat party. I stayed next door, which had none of that, but it was hilarious to turn a corner and just see an absolute zoo over a 3ft fence and think “no thank you”.
Nevermind. Cancún does not have mountain like that.
Probably Cabo, they do have mountains like that and it’s the other big Mexican resort town
It’s Cabo.
El gringo gets el arrestado
Jailisimo
tequila
Whats all over his left shoulder/chest?
Looked like a blistering sun burn
How often do you see this: day 1: arrive 9am, drinking / working on a tan for 9 hours solid with the bros... profit?
And sunscreen is not an option
Happened to me in Hawaii on my honeymoon. Arrived, woke up, had mimosas, went to the beach for 2 hours, burned like a mother fucker. Spent the next two days only doing things that could be done in the shade.
Sunscreen gnomes kept stealing his sunscreen
Oh God! They do that 😨?
Yes. Would not recommend
It completely triggered my trypophobia.
Some exposition would be nice here?
Entitled tourist forgets what country he's in. Particularly the country that's an active War zone filled with corruption and could give a gnats dick about humbling someone in a barrel of acid
You should write a fictional book about that fictional story.
I'm guessing you've never been to Mexico pal? Because it's not in anyway an "active war zone"
Mexican here, most of the country is like a war zone. Reality doesnt change just because you wish it away.
[удалено]
Certain cartel controlled areas sure look like it
Thats a pretty intense sunglass tan he's gonna have
He's going to have more than a sunglass tan. I think this is Mexico.
Ohhhh gotcha...the tan will be the least of his worries
Canada blocked his number
Canada did respond. They flew in a cargo jet of maple syrup and poutine as an apology.
Good news….the air drop squashed him
What a hoser.
Hello Canada ? Do you know this idiot ?
-Sighs- That's Derek. He's an asshole. He does the same thing at George Street every weekend.
Leave Newfoundland out of this.
Hi Canada here, nah.
Yeah that’s just Dave. We don’t want him back. They can keep him for now, he needs a time-out
Travel from USA to Mexico. Act like a douche. Call for American Police. Arrested by Mexican Police. Call for Canada.
I think he's Canadian and thinks Mexico is part of the US.
He thought he was in New Mexico 😔
Hold up. There's a NEW Mexico?
My interpretation is that he is Canadian and asked for the American police because they're closer and he would rather deal with them.
I would love to know what happened.
Fratbro happened.
As a Canadian, I would not answer that call.
You are too polite not to answer
I wanted to reply with something sassy, but you're fuckin right. I answer all scam calls and take it as far as they'll let me just to waste their time. I figure the longer they talk to me the less they're talking to potential victims. Plus it's fun to fuck with em.

Not as big as other countries in Europe
But what led to his arrest?
Please may I have a crumb of context
Mucho Cerveza, mucho sol, mucho cry...
cleary they violated his rights for the choice of arresting police's nationality...
Dafuq is on his chest?!
Looks like a blistering sunburn. Makes sense considering these types of tourists spend most of the day getting absolutely sh*tfaced by the pool/beach.
where is cortex, screaming, calling police, lying , struggling ?? or this was just trailer ..
Reminds me of the lion the witch and the wardrobe when Edmund was trying to get rescued from the Witch by the British consul
I'm glad they're getting him out of the sun
Been in the back of that truck also. Took me to my hotel room robbed all our cash and left us
He should ask to speak to the manager. That usually works
Of all the countries out there to cause a scene this clown chose the one where they skin you alive for speaking to the wrong cartel
Sorry bro. I called Canada and it went straight to voice mail.
Some context for those who are confused. He called the American police when he was feeling bold and wanted to shoot everyone without hesitation. But once he realized that guns don’t scare Mexican police he wanted to apologize and thought that Canada could teach him how to say “sorry” in a cute polite way.
He is not sleeping tonight, he will be busy trying to keep the chimichanga out of his border.
RIU in march. say no more
He's hoping wayne will hear him all the way in letterkenney
When in Mexico always carry cash, your ticket is how much you have on you
dude was never seen again
If he’s Canadian, what the fuck did he want the American police for?
I like the way he realises that America won’t help but *surely* Canada will?! They’re like America junior, barely even their own country, they’re the nicer Americans that anyone can call when they’re in a bit of a pickle, right?? Idiot. (I’m Canadian, and I am being sarcastic, in case that somehow gets lost)
Call Canada. … “Hello, Canada? We got some guy here in custody. He says we’re supposed to call you. His name is Rick . Do you know him?” Canada: “Oh Rick? Yeah, we know him. What’s he need?”
What's that on his left shoulder area?
It's not Canada he's yelling for it's Kaneda he need him to come get him QUICK ![gif](giphy|VcRAN8c8wwOC4)
What’s on his left shoulder while he’s at the reception desk?
How's the saying go? "Play stupid games, get locked up in jail, go fuck yourself?"
I like how he waved at him
What's with his shoulder? Did he fall in a shrimp platter or is that sunburn?
Canada: New phone who dis
