I always found him to be more putain than poutine. Curious the clarification was needed.

Someone needs to do a guerrilla edit
Vladimir Poutine is a traditional Canadian dish of French fries, cheese curds, and gravy
There actually were poutine dishes and restaurants that had to change their name after the ruskies invaded Ukraine for that very reason.
"Poutine on the Ritz"
Serve with Ritz crackers. Delicious.
Mon dieu! C'est un blasphème!
After the Quiet Revolution, poutine took the place of the Catholic Church in Québécois society.

The great religious schism of poutine: whether you think it comes from Drummondville or Victoriaville
A holy War-wick

Aaannd this is added to the out drinkin' playlist. It kicks ass, thanks for sharing!
You're very welcome! Great band for such uses. I'm a big fan of their shanties and polkas (then again, I love folk-punk).
I’ve only had this a couple of times but omfg was it salty as hell. Granted, it was not in Canada, and I’d hope the “real thing” is less.. horrible..
Oh man yeah you gotta go to Canada
Alternatively, if you wanna try good poutine, make it yourself, you just need:
-
fries (your favourite kind -- imo the best frozen ones are the flavour crisp from Cavendish, idk if they sell those in the states but ideally you'd have them deep fried or air fried)
-
gravy (just make a gravy you don't find overly salty, homemade is best but if there's a mix you enjoy, that'll work)
-
cheese curds (THEY HAVE TO BE CHEESE CURDS, we are NOT making disco fries here)
It's so easy to not fuck up yet so many restaurants do out of hubris.
I'm on the prairies so we don't have the best access to great poutine but the best I've had here is the $6 costco one.
Oh man yeah you gotta go to Canada
Unfortunately I'm over 9 thousand miles away from Quebec.

Bonne St. Jean!
En Finlande on fête aussi la St Jean, et il s'appelle "juhannus" ce qui vient du nom finlandais de St Jean, "Johannes".
J'ai trouvé ça ben drôle que les québécois fêtent ça aussi, et de la même façon que nous – en se paquetant la fraise
