This was edited and unfortunately it took out some really funny points. Still a good bit, but it was funnier than this video. This guy has a very underrated standup game.

Absolute belly laugh!  You need to add in the part about US invading Canada in a land grab and burning Toronto and British, in retaliation burning the White House.  ie please make it longer!

Ps the star spangled banner is sang to the tune of a British drinking song, and your flag is a rip off of our empire flag for east Indian company flag,

[johncroyfindlay]

Wow. 10% correct at best. And he forgot that former slaves and native Americans actually fought WITH the British. That's yer American education for you, though :-)

None of this is funny, it's just bad accents.
