Brian Adams and Nelly Furtado

 

[Scornelius]

They're being sold at local stores for $10 a pair. I have mine!

 

[BCDisneyFanatic]

Me too!!!

Ohhh Canadian Dissers.... can you hook us up??

I've got some that I won't be wearing anytime soon (it's supposed to be 33 deg C/92 deg F tomorrow) If you want to pop on over, you're welcome to borrow them

 

[OK!]

The dude is Bryan Adams, but he looks like he's lost about half his body weight. I didn't even recognize him until he started singing, and then I only recognized the voice.

I LOVE the Canadian parkas, and could their mittens be any cuter?! I want some!!

They sold them as a fundraiser for Canadian athletes. They are very popular!

Ummmm sure I'll be right there! Of course, you might not get rid of me with that kind of weather... at least not until say, April...

 

[OK!]

OK, now THAT was a cute commercial (the Coke snowball fight one).

 

[Imzadi]

That Olympic Coke snowball commercial was funny!

I was right! I thought it was Donald Sutherland narrating.

 

[Illuminations_Rocks]

I am loving the snow effects

 

[Scornelius]

OMG! Love the northern lights!!

 

[OK!]

It looks like you might be able to buy them online, but the website's not working correctly right now (store.hbc.com); I suspect we weren't the only ones who thought they were cute!

WM Alex just announced a DIS Board shutdown at midnight (EST). This show had better be over by then.

HBC is the Hudson's Bay Company (aka The Bay), a Canadian department store. The mittens have selling out since before Christmas - they are very popular (and warm and cozy).

Donald Sutherland is the one reading the quotes.

ETA - HBC designed the athletes outfits.
