Canadians will be made to listen to Nickelback if caught drink driving

Only thing is what if the person arrested is a big fan of Nickelback, just bizarre from the Canadian police

Why do people hate on Nickelback? I haven't listened to them since their early days so I'm unsure as to why they receive so much hate.
Wow, this is ridiculous. Outrageously harsh punishment.
:rofl: I'd listen to Nickelback if it got me out of points on my license!

Just as long as it's not that song that says about wanting a credit card with no limit, then I'd be fine with it! :lol:

I would have thought that would be a far worse punishment to have to endure.

I believe the term band wagon(ing) is in play, the internet can be a massive hate machine if the right fires are started, Nickleback just got caught up in the 2000's **** storm since the majority of the world got connected online (mostly complete toolsheds of human beings)

Nickelback? That's a little harsh. ****, I'd better sober up...
Don't they have another annoying singer there?

That would be cruel and unusual punishment.


It's playing at my work, I didn't do anything to deserve this punishment :tongue:
I actually own Silver Side Up :p: Haven't listened to it since I was 17 though (that is, 13 years....)
People are a tad harsh on Nickelback. You can do a lot worse than them. 'This is how you remind me' is a good track. The rest is a bit meh, but far from the level of 'ohGodmyearsturnitoff' that I get from most popular music, including 95% of anything that plays in the gym :pinch:

You've got to credit the service for a brilliant sense of humour though :yy:

I too do not understand the hatred towards Nickelback, there are far, far, worse artists out there.
er ok... :lolwut:
This was in the related videos for How You Remind Me.




Apparently it was Bill Gates' favourite song.
