In 1955, one of the panelists from "Chacun son Metier" actually appeared as a contestant on this version. Following that, Nicole Germain joined the panel for the second round.
You can find Louis Morisset - Chacun son metier on RU-vid. What struck me was the prizes. They went from $1.00 CDN to $10.00 CDN (1958) while at the same time in the U.S. it went to $50.00 U.S. This was probably CBC/Radio Canada. Ceci explique cela?
Where I grew up they did, they thought a citizen of the U.S. was acting arrogant if he or she thought only citizens of the U.S. were American. I remember one Canadian that almost threw a punch in such a situation.
I was just thinking it should more have been in French, when they gave the title, Chacune son metier... although he sounds more Parisian than Quebecois.
lunarman29 I always use to kid my friends who are from south america and central america...and say"Hey you are an american too..a central american..." Then they in turn tell me "No i am from Honduras and A Honduran etc. I live in Los Angeles too since 1961.
Well excuse me but I also grew up in the 50's as too am over 65 I have friends who are from south american and central america and they NEVER think of themselves as american. I am a 2nd generation american from Ohio too.
@@wschmrdr no things weren't different back then we were still Canadians as you were still Americans. If I were the guests I would have corrected John Daley
Oh come on...she new what his job is before he even sat down. And listen to the reaction of the audience. They didn't sound surprised or impressed at all.
Wrong! in the Fifties (when I grew up) anyone from the tip of Tierra del Fuego all the way up to Baffin Bay was called American, in fact back then the Canadians got mad if you didn't call them American. It has only been since the 80's and later that this has changed; so due to the fact this was filmed back then, it's YOU who are incorrect.
