Thanks for providing the info. Love the cultural history.

It’s an old Quebec TV show for the 70s called La soirée canadienne. They travelled from small villages to small villages to présent the city and meet the local folkloric clubs. It’s hilarious in retrospect.

That kid grew up to be a poppîar tv and radio host who got caught, in a police sting, masturbating in a park. Funny story.

J'ai vu le loup, le renard et la belette-ancient French folk song. Balfa Brothers recorded a Cajun version about same time as this television version from Quebec. youtu.be/Nep2wKHqNo4

Me when this appears on the timeline

It’s a traditional Stanley Cup religious folk dance before the Habs playoffs games start . #Habs #StanleyCupFolkDance

In case you’re wondering the boy singing is Joël Legendre @Legendre_J

This article (with automatic translation if required) should enlighten you. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soir%C… The program was aired from Sherbrooke. I remember when around 1968 my grandmother got cable TV so she could watch it in Montreal.

@HabsOnReddit post different videos for goal scores, he post this one for every Québécois scorer on team

YouTube Quebecois trad/folk music. It’s Very Irish sounding. I’ve been digging it.

Medieval France lyrics, Irish immigrant music (1850s)

We call those “chansons a répondre” Don’t know when they started in the Queb culture but I had to learn some in the early 80s still. Very popular in family gatherings This looks a variety show on tv in the 70s.

La Soirée Canadienne is part of the “Folkrore Québécois” my husband was 6 years old when they visit his village in 1973. Our generation grew up with La Soirée Canadienne that was airing every Saturday night. It was almost a religion to watch just like Sunday church. People in each village would perform something whether it was signing, dancing or do la “gigue” dance just like below youtu.be/MNeMonPg-fA?si=EpgQ…

this makes me hate the canadiens so much more than I already did

Looks like The Friendly Gaint. If not, I'll call Rusty or maybe the Canes.

Not so fun fact about this boy ... Later in life he was guilty of masturbating in public parks around montreal !

Go Habs go

This would be an awesome goal song

It's the French-Canadian interpretation of square dancing, popular in QC in the 1800's. The lead singer being named a "câlleur" an anglicism as he'd "call" the song. More info on this cultural heritage on QC's gov. website here: patrimoine-culturel.gouv.qc.… /2

This tradition has evolved to give rise to traditional music groups that are now recognized around the world. The very definition of culture. youtu.be/76LnSk0v8Bc?si=wMSn…
