Yes Sir! Madame... is a Canadian satirical film, directed by Robert Morin and released in 1994. The film is essentially a philosophical monologue on identity performed entirely by Morin in the character of Earl Tremblay, a former politician who is filming his own testimony about the duality of being the son of a French Canadian father and an English Canadian mother, thus both belonging and feeling like an outsider to both of Canada's primary language communities.

The film essentially blended Morin's early work as a video artist with his more recent forays into full-length narrative filmmaking in the early 1990s.

The film premiered on November 18, 1994, at Troisième fenêtre, a video art exhibition in Montreal, before going into wider release in 1995.

A digitally restored version of the film was screened at the Fantasia Film Festival in 2021.
