Definition

A lovably Canadian insult for someone who's a bit dim, clumsy, and probably nursing their third Molson of the morning. Popularized by the McKenzie brothers, it's the polite northern version of calling someone a bumbling idiot. Think of it as 'bless your heart' but with more flannel and hockey references.

Example Usage

Dave tried to shovel snow in his Crocs and locked himself out in -20°C weather. What a hoser, eh?
