* ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'': Bandit Keith pretends to be American, but is later revealed to actually be Canadian. Either way, he's a rude bully and a jerk.

* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'': Blaque Jacque Shellaque is a French-Canadian villain on the WesternAnimation/BugsBunny cartoons "WesternAnimation/BonanzaBunny" and "WesternAnimation/WetHare". He is basically a Canadian WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam, and on one episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'', he is presented as Sam's cousin.

Not these people. Some Canadians brush off the pleasantries, have no time to talk ''aboot'' the weather or any other small talk. In fact, they're just as cold as their weather, and don't give two craps about politeness, their apologies have [[BackhandedApology a snarky tone]] to them, more so when interacting with their Yankee neighbors, and they are TheDreaded in their elements in the likes of [[CanadianEqualsHockeyFan ice hockey]] or [[UsefulNotes/CanucksWithChinooks warfare]] by their rivals. Double points if they're from [[FrenchJerk Quebec]][[note]]Usually downplayed in French media when French-Canadians show up, as the accent sounds inherently silly rather than crass to metropolitan French speakers.[[/note]] or Alberta.

* LetsPlay/ProtonJon has garnered a reputation for himself of not only being a Canadian content creator, as LetsPlay/{{Chuggaaconroy}} loves to point out over on LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys, but also for having a very noticeable HairTriggerTemper over how [[BornUnlucky unlucky]] he gets.

* Ouro Kronii of ''WebAnimation/{{Hololive}}'' is, ostensibly, the narcissistic, sadistic Warden of Time, and even outside of backstory, is a font of ComedicSociopathy, ''especially'' when she's allowed to interact with other talents. And, as it turns out, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeJWwGScaug Canadian]], a [[OpenSecret "revelation"]] that surprised precisely no one given the hints she's been dropping over time.

Of course, being a rude Canadian doesn't necessarily mean evil; they can be honest and can see the bullcrap, with a genuinely nice or AffablyEvil Canadian being a Foil to the character.

** ''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}'' hails from Regina, Saskatchewan, but is mostly known for being a violent, unpredictable, and not-exactly sane mercenary who frequently gets into gore-filled fights and has a very crude sense of humor that breaks the fourth wall. Taskmaster even notes that though Deadpool might be the world's greatest fighter, his personality is never going to help him get hired.
** Logan, or ''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}'' is a prime example, bub. Born from Cold Lake, Alberta, he's short, gruff, unpredictable, violent, and untrusting of authority, yet he's the best there is at what he does, and what he does best isn't very nice.

* Ned Land from ''Literature/TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea'' is a loud, rude, crude, hard-drinking, two-fisted Nova Scotian whaler. He was hired on the hunt for a sea monster specifically for these reasons and is the most vocally upset at being captured by Nemo and his crew.

* Downplayed with Robin Scherbatsky of ''Series/HowIMetYourMother''. Coming from being raised as a boy and her disillusionment of being a teen idol in the likes of Music/AlanisMorissette, she is [[SugarAndIcePersonality cold and aloof]], has no time or care for flattery, gets annoyed when she is made fun of her Canadian background, focuses more on her career over romance, is TheLadette of the gang, a GunNut, and constantly screams at the bubbly and nice Patrice. Yet this demeanor makes Ted completely head over heels for her throughout the series.

* ''Series/SchittsCreek'': Roland Schitt, the mayor of Schitt's Creek is obnoxious, crass, and generally the polar opposite of the sophisticated Johnny Rose, especially in earlier seasons of the show. He has HiddenDepths that are gradually revealed, but he remains a bit of a lout.
* ''Series/{{SCTV}}'' The characters of Bob and Doug [=McKenzie=] were created by Creator/RickMoranis and Creator/DaveThomas in response to the CBC's demand for Canadian content on the sketch show. The hockey and beer-obsessed brothers are dim-witted to say the least. They also became super popular and starred in their own film (see above).

* ''ComicBook/TheBluecoats'': In "Quebec Gold", a Southern-born miner strikes it rich in Canada and wants to leave his fortune to the Confederacy, so Blutch and Chesterfield are sent there to convince him otherwise. Their local guide is an incompetent and flea-ridden [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coureur_des_bois coureur des bois]] who repeatedly nearly gets them killed, can't run for long, can't ''swim'', has an equally-inept and parasite-infested brother serving as guide to the Confederate soldiers sent on the same mission, and once the miner is found we learn neither had seen civilization for years because they had ''that bad'' a case of NoSenseOfDirection. The miner actually dies laughing on learning this and is buried with his tiny bag of gold (he'd never amassed more than a few nuggets, but to his elderly mind it was a fortune, and to the Americans it didn't seem worth fighting over or even right to take it from him), and the coureurs are caught trying to dig up the grave to steal it. The Americans end up rescued by the local natives and swiftly escorted to the border because the two idiots are scaring off all the game with their antics.

* The first ''Film/BlackCat'' opens with protagonist Catherine, a college dropout and drifter, crashing in a Canadian bar where she had an unfortunate run-in with an uncouth, oversized local trucker. And then things gets ugly when the trucker tries flirting with her, only for Catherine's rejection leading to an AttemptedRape and Catherine killing him in self-defense.

* Ned Land from ''Literature/TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea'' is a loud, rude, crude, hard-drinking, two-fisted Nova Scotian whaler. He was hired onto the hunt for a sea monster specifically for these reasons, and is the most vocally upset at being captured by Nemo and his crew.

* ''Series/{{Letterkenny}}'': In the small Ontario town of Letterkenny, the main characters, made up of farmers, drug addicts and hockey players, are constantly "chirping" at each other with colorful insults when they aren't all-out brawling. See the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rSBmOgpcDE first scene]] of the first episode for a prime example.
* The main characters in ''Series/TrailerParkBoys'' are a trio of Nova Scotian [[LowerClassLout Lower Class Louts]], who make a living out of selling drugs. Of the three, Ricky is by far the most [[SirSwearsALot vulgar]], selfish, abrasive, HotBlooded, and picking on other residents of the trailer park. Julian has a chip on his shoulder, and can be unpleasant when doing illegal activity. And their SitcomArchNemesis, Jim Lahey the park supervisor, is a vindictive [[TheAlcoholic alcoholic]] willing to arrest them for the pettiest reasons, make Ricky literally kiss his ass in public after failing to win a bet, and is constantly going on long-winded tangents that include repeated insertions of the word "shit".
* ''Series/SchittsCreek'': Roland Schitt, the mayor of Schitt's Creek is obnoxious, crass and generally the polar opposite of the sophisticated Johnny Rose, especially in earlier seasons of the show. He has HiddenDepths that are gradually revealed, but he remains a bit of a lout.
* ''Series/{{SCTV}}'' The characters of Bob and Doug [=McKenzie=] were created by Creator/RickMoranis and Creator/DaveThomas in response to the CBC's demand for Canadian content on the sketch show. The hockey and beer obsessed brothers are dim-witted to say the least. They also became super popular and starred in their own film (see above).

* ''VideoGame/PunchOut'': Downplayed with Bear Hugger, who is a Canadian boxer who chops wood, fights bears in his free time, and is a BigFun guy towards Little Mac when he's not on the ring. But when he steps on the ring, he's about as bearlike as his name and lifestyle would imply, being a BigEater and a big sleeper who scratches his back on the ring post, belches into the camera, taunts Little Mac like a schoolyard bully, and speaks most of his lines in a boisterous guffaw. He also packs a real wallop when he fights, with his signature move being a KillerBearHug.

* ''Film/StrangeBrew'': Bob & Doug McKenzie are the embodiment of Canadian rednecks, only really wanting free beer and willing to go through an enormous amount of trouble to get it, eh.

* ''Series/{{SCTV}}'' The characters of Bob and Doug McKenzie were created by Creator/RickMoranis and Creator/DaveThomas in response to the CBC's demand for Canadian content on the sketch show.

** Possibly an even cruder and more violent Canadian than Wolverine is his ArchEnemy Characters/MarvelComicsSabretooth. Like Logan, Sabretooth is a mutant with enhanced senses, prominent claws, a HealingFactor, and he can go into [[AxCrazy murderous rages]]. Unlike Logan, however, who tries really hard to suppress his berserker rage, Sabretooth [[FullyEmbracedFiend embraces his animalistic nature]], and deliberately does anything he can to be [[ForTheEvulz as violent and evil as possible]], including murder, [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil rape]], and [[IAmAHumanitarian cannibalism]]. Additionally, just to make his enmity with Wolverine even more [[ItsPersonal personal]], every year on [[ABirthdayNotABreak Logan's birthday]], Sabretooth visits him just to hurt someone he cares about and [[EvilIsPetty make his life even more miserable]].

* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' titled "Uh Oh, Canada", in which a Canadian couple house-swaps with Boomhauer, depicts said Canadian neighbors as this. They are rude and condescending, constantly talking down on Hank and company in a very smug and passive-aggressive manner, and the husband in particular has an extreme case of MisplacedNationalism that makes Hank's patriotism look downright sensible. When they leave, [[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing everyone in the neighborhood is glad to see them go]].

They say that the stereotype of {{Canad|aEh}}ians is that they are nice, polite, and apologetic to a fault. Not these people. Some Canadians brush off the pleasantries, have no time to talk ''aboot'' the weather or any other small talk, sometimes cold and insensitive like their weather, and don't give two craps about politeness, more so when interacting with their Yankee neighbors, and they are TheDreaded in their elements in the likes of [[CanadianEqualsHockeyFan ice hockey]] or [[UsefulNotes/CanucksWithChinooks warfare]] by their rivals. Double points if they're from [[FrenchJerk Quebec]][[note]]Usually downplayed in French media when French-Canadians show up, as the accent sounds inherently silly rather than crass to metropolitan French speakers.[[/note]] or Alberta.

* Downplayed in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' in which a Canadian couple house-swaps with Boomhauer; while not openly rude, they bad-mouth American beer, American Football, and so on in a very smug and passive-aggressive manner; when they leave, everyone in the neighborhood is glad to see them go.

* ''VideoGame/FarCry6'': Sean [=McKa=]y, AKA "The ''Yanqui''", the [[TokenMinority only non-Yaran]] of the main villains, is a [[CorruptCorporateExecutive greedy businessman]] who works for [[BigBad Anton]] [[TheGeneralissimo Castillo]] by shipping [[CureForCancer Viviro]] out of [[BananaRepublic Yara]] for him (when he's not being an ArmsDealer instead). Despite his nickname, [=McKay=] is [[MistakenNationality actually from Canada, not America]], but he's not polite or friendly, and if anything, [[MoreDespicableMinion he's even more evil than Anton himself]]. A [[FatBastard fat]], [[SmugSnake smug]] opportunist, he's prone to casually swearing, displays traces of [[PoliticallyIncorrectVilain bigotry]] (making snide comments about ponchos to the Yaran Dani, calling [[LaResistance Libertad]] "[[MaliciousMisnaming Libertards]]", and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking interrupting and talking over his own ally Admiral Ana Benitez]]), and according to background notes, he [[AbusiveParents abuses his daughters]] and [[DomesticAbusers his wife]] ''and'' [[PedoHunt raped and impregnated a pre-teen girl]]. To make things worse, [=McKay=] is the one who develops the PG240X (the "[[PoisonIsEvil Poison]]" used to grow Viviro) into chemical weapons, which he infamously uses to [[HeroKiller kill]] [[spoiler:Jonron and El Tigre]], and he [[KickTheDog afterwards asks if his victim's brains melted out of their nostrils and ears when they died]]. Possibly the only quality of [=McKay=]'s that comes even remotely close to redeeming is that [[CardCarryingVillain he knows he's a monster, and doesn't try to hide it]], as we see in this dialogue between him and [[TheHero Dani Rojas]]:

* ''WebVideo/PopCrossStudios'': In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUx-4Y6_psQ The Beast Chroniclers and the Blade of the Northern Tide]], main characters [[BattleCouple Tayrun and Kayla]] meet Captain Trenton A. Derable, the leader of a crew of Canadian pirates in search of the titular magical sword. Whilst Captain Derable himself is ''definitely'' [[FriendlyPirate friendly]], as was his late mother, the other members of his family were ''not''. See, Derable has a DarkAndTroubledPast: he used to be a prince to the kingdom of Toronto, but his stepfather the King was an EvilColonialist who decided to give the crown to his daughter instead, purely because Trenton was [[RoyalBastard illegitimate]] and [[HalfBreedDiscrimination half-Haudenosaunee]]. Trenton's half-sister, once she took the crown, [[GenerationXerox proved to take after her father]] in her attitude towards the indigenous peoples. At her first high court meeting, she proposed ending the peacekeeping efforts with the Haudenosaunee, thinking they were going to try stealing land from her kingdom- [[MoralMyopia land that her ancestors stole in the first place]]. When Trenton objected to her decision, she called him a CategoryTraitor and challenged him to a duel. Trenton refused to fight her, whereupon she [[EyeScream sliced him across one eye]]. She next [[AnArmAndALeg cut off his leg]] for refusing to retract his suggestion. Despite being legitimate, the king and later queen of Toronto ultimately proved to be bigger bastards than [[HeroicBastard a literal bastard]]. (It's worth bearing in mind that Christian Pearson, the writer of these Multiverse Tales, is [[SelfDeprecation Canadian himself]])

* The first ''Film/BlackCat'' opens with protagonist Catherine, a college dropout and drifter, crashing in a Canadian bar where she had an unfortunate run-in with an uncouth, oversized local trucker. And then things gets ugly when the trucker tries flirting with her, only for Catherine's rejection leading to an AttemptedRape and Catherine killing him in self-defense.

* ''WesternAnimation/PetAlien'': Clinton has a thick Canadian accent, and he?s a JerkJock who always calls Tommy a ?[[CatchphraseInsult losah]]?.
