Are the Canadians contesting this? Because, though they do not say 'a-boot', they most certainly say something along the lines of 'abeuwt' (as opposed to Americans, who tend to say 'uh-bowt'). |
You'll often hear Acadians (French/English mixed ancestory, generally live along the Quebec/New Brunswick boarder and in Louisiana... seriously... that's where the word cajen comes from) will say a-boot... they'll also say oot rather then out. The rest of us will properly pronounce our Us. That said, those of us in southern Ontario (which is the Canadian accent most Americans are used to hearing) tend to sler our words so you get all kinds of ed up sounding words. |

Ok, so seriously.
We all pretty much look like this, or something close to it:
We all come from the same lineage.
We speak Pig Latin Kernewek.
Build igloos for fun? WTF, building houses is not fun. For fun we would much rather play with our pet polar bears, and sometimes we like to make sculptures out of leftover whale blubber.
If these things aren't available, I trek about 16km uphill both ways in the 6 feet deep snow to the nearest power station where I wait my turn to use the only computer in all of Canada. I would take the sled, but I don't have my dog sled liscience (that's how we spell it here). It's a nice treat because we get to use running water while we're there, (which means flushing toilets!!! YAY!).
The sucky thing about being in Canada though is that with global warming, our houses are beginning to melt. Where am I going to live??? :( |
Don't forget about the Leopluradon, and Candy Mountain. :haha: |

I really wish Americans could see Rick Mercer's "Talking to Americans"... just to get a true picture of what some of the less enlightened Americans think of Canada.
My favorite was the governor of some southern state who congradulated us on "saving our national igloo" (which was said to house parliament). |

Most the players in the league are Canadian anyway... even when we loose we really win. |

yes. we kept getting spyder to say it when she came over & she got well paranoid in the end.
Other funny things:
Toronto = Toronno (According to my bro whos living there)
seal clubbing is a term for masturbation, not actually hurting cute lil animals
if you say new-found-land not new-fund-lund, you'll be castrated by old scottish descendants
and they're all maple sucking hosers :p |
