The interviewer asks "Do you feel like the wandering Canadian, with mariachi music?" LC answers "a little bit" and the French subtitle says "tout à fait (absolutely)".

@ThomasDeanNordlum ABsolutely true, Canadien would be translated almost as Quebecois today. (Not exactly the same of course...)

La «Canadien errant» en question n'est pas un Canadien dans le sens contemporain. Il s'agit de l'ancienne désignation que se donnaient les Canadiens français qui, majoritairement regroupés au Québec aujourd'hui, ont choisi de s'appeler Québécois après s'être fait piller leur identité et leurs symboles historiques par le Canada.

I think he is very sentimental. He almost cried, but then he got a cup of coffee. Anyoe knows if he still lives in such a surrounding in L.A? Wouldn't surprise me if he did...

cette chanson a été écrite en 1842 quand Antoine Guérin Lajoie a vu passé un grand bateau noir sur le fleuve transportant les patriotes de 1837-1838 vers la déportation qui les attendaient
