Really crazy how Irving's don't get a mention.

As a Canadian, what the hell is an Irving?

Closest thing Canada has to royal family. They own the east coast.

I grew up in Ontario. Never heard of them. Then I moved out east and holy fuck it was crazy how I never heard of this family. They own everything in the maritimes. Them and the McCain's(french fry McCain's).

It's to the point that the Maritimes feel like a factory town and most of Canada never heard of them. Might have something to do with how they own all media out there too.
