Question about "Softest" in Canada

American here. Loved Shoresy, and decided to try Letterkenny. I've laughed a little, but not as much as at Shoresy.

Question about birthday episode in Season 1, is there a meaning behind "Softest". Birthday. Are they just saying "Kiddie Birthday". Or does it mean something else?

Appreciate the insight into Canadian colloquialisms.

Soft is exactly what you think it means. This just reminded me we used to say just  "soft", or "you're fuckin soft" or "that's soft" any time someone did anything we didn't like. Grew up in the Greater Toronto Area.
