Canada is home to many strange and wonderful things, but honestly, some of them kind of seem made up, according to a TikToker.

Over on the social media and video platform, @hubcityfoodies recently shared a clip about things that he knows exist in the country but refuses "to acknowledge that they're real."

First up are wolverines, and no, not the character Wolverine played by Hugh Jackman.

"I'm talking about this half-wolf, half-bear scary creature," he said, showing an image of the fearsome creature, also called carcajou. "Why are we not talking about this thing all the time?"

Next up is an issue he took with an area out east.

"The province of Labrador doesn't exist," the TikToker hilariously claimed. "Name two people from there. You know no one from Labrador."

He then encourages you to google Labrador, noting that you'll get pictures of cute dogs.

If you've ever had a hard time believing that maple syrup comes from an actual tree, this next point is for you.

"What witchcraft are you guys running in these sugar shacks?" he says with a picture of a tree being tapped in the background. "There's no way that that deliciousness comes from trees."

And for the last thing that he knows is real but refuses to acknowledge exists is a feline predator.

"You gonna tell me that this fearsome creature roams our forest and we don't talk about it at least three times a week?" he asked of the majestic lynx.

That's because they're "not real."

Elsewhere on TikTok, the creator shared a few things that'll get you cancelled in the Maritimes, like if you order a pizza and don't order garlic fingers.

Even more inexcusable though is if you pick a garlic finger from the middle and "don't take any of the crappy pieces at the end with no cheese on it." Cancelled!
