Red was a plaid guy but not a kilt guy. But they did try make the show as appealing as possible to Americans- for instance in naming the Possum Lodge. There are no possums in Canada, or weren't when the show started. (Apparently they are becoming an invasive species here, and this is taken as yet another sign of the warming apocalypse.) I look forward to some easily caught meals....

Anyway, the humour was rural, not specifically Canadian. Besides the always-present chainsaw sound, witness the lodge's continually smoking woodstove. The show was largely supported by college students, most of whom probably never saw a woodstove anywhere else.
