The Beginning
Initially, he uploaded his videos on Vine but, eventually, he formed a vlogging channel “Eh Bee” chiefly for YouTube.
He did so when there were rumors that Vine would close down. Before this, he started to gradually share videos on his Vine from January 2013 onwards.
The family’s vlogs were spoofs and skits bordering on hilarity. The family’s YouTube videos were intended mainly for family entertainment.
Right from the day “Eh Bee” went commercial, he focused on filming eccentric videos and named his son and daughter Mr. and Miss Bee respectively in keeping with the character of the recordings.
To keep up with the characters, he named himself and his wife Mama Bee.
Although the majority of fans and followers are familiar with the first names of the “Eh Bee” family, his family preferred to be called by their nicknames.
Furthermore, in the year 2015, the “Eh Bee” family bagged the well-known “Armstrong Vine Award” and the “Shorty Award” in the next year.

Family’s Involvement
His wife and children assisted him in laying the groundwork for developing a family-friendly YouTube channel. The inspiration for naming the channel came from his initials “A.B”. It sounded similar to “Eh Bee”. The term “eh” which usually is an expression signifying surprise or astonishment and is uniquely Canadian could also be behind the channel’s wacky name.
Every family member was actively involved in popularizing the family YouTube channel and everybody had a nickname. His children were very young when he started posting videos.
The introductory footage uploaded on Vine showed Gabrielle (his daughter) nicknamed “Miss Monke” with a pink-colored guitar.
In the latter part of the video, his son (Mr. Monkey) is seen showcasing a snowman outdoors. He along with his close-knit family, routinely uploads videos on different social media sites.
