Sam Bird is a Canadian comedian, podcaster and actor.
Previously, Sam hosted CBC’s Street Cents, a social media show dedicated to helping Gen Z learn how to earn and spend smarter. Ironically, Sam has never been worse with money. He also made content for KraftHeinz, amassing 10+ million views, 2+ million likes, and “only a few” comments that hit Sam’s self-esteem in a negative way.
Sam hosts Birdcore, a podcast where he and his co-host/lover invite guests from all walks of life to hear their stories, dive into their throughts and hopefully make them laugh at least once.
You might know his as “Québécois,” a character he created on social media that’s taken the internet by storm and amassed 60+ million views. Québécois has worked with brands like Tinder, DoorDash and Jackery.
Sam was a student at McGill University, studying psychology and economics. After realizing he’d rather be a gas station pump attendant, he transferred to Toronto Metropolitan University to study Sports Media.
Sam’s life spiralled downhill when he didn’t win “Funniest Student” at his elementary school graduation. After considering a name change and permanent move to Norway, Sam recollected himself and started making YouTube videos. They weren’t as elaborate as his current videos unless you consider a word-for-word reading of the fine print on a Beats by Dr. Dre box to be elaborate.
Sam has hosted multiple live radio shows and podcasts, starred in short films, posts regularly on TikTok and Instagram, and performed Improv and Stand-Up comedy at The Second City and Yuk Yuk’s. Next on his list? Gas station pump attendant.
