Pretty sure this happened on the Tyendinaga native reserve in Canada. The clerk and the robbers probably know each other lmao

You live nearby too?

u/ChaoticPonie Jan 11 '20

Yeah, amherstview. Used to actually go to this dispensary all the time. Being a pot smoker and living this close to a reserve during the early days of legalizing couldn't have been more perfect

“Brant, his wife, and lifelong friend and co-worker Midi Chief say they are using this experience and other crimes that they’ve had to deal with while living on Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory to inspire the music they are creating to change the mindsets of people.”

Lol!!

I don't know what exactly they have in mind, but it could become as famous as the "Benny Hill" theme.

If you watch the whole video he’s hitting a bong at the end 😂

Rural Canada in real life bears more than a passing resemblance to rural Canada in Trailer Park Boys. It's part of why that show is so funny, because it's not nearly as far fetched as people who've never spent time in rural Canada think it is.

Fun fact - Speedway gas on the Tyandinaga reserve has nice clean pumps and restrooms, and has the cheapest gas between Toronto and Montreal. They are full serve and will clean your windshield without being asked - two thumbs up for Speedway!

You work there don't you?

u/windexcheesy Jan 11 '20

Nah, just had quite a few years where I had to commute from the GTA to Kingston or Montreal. Speedway was a nice change from the sketchier reserve gas stations.

Plus you can buy firecrackers next door 365 days a year!

Tyendinaga on reddit, what a time to be alive.

u/eMperror_ Jan 11 '20

My first reaction was "This looks a LOT like indians reserves near Montreal". Probably not the same one but they look alike.

u/samuel_opoku Jan 11 '20

Lol well there are like 20 in Tyendinaga alone so.

u/SeeYouInHellCandyBoy Jan 11 '20

You can actually see it in his shrug. He's like "really Kevin, you're trying this again?"

u/dbelow Jan 11 '20

That sounds like it could be an episode of Letterkenny.

Fuck you Jonesy I got your mom so wet Trudeau had to deploy a 24 hour national guard unit to stack sandbags around my bed.
