Of course she does!
1) It's obvious she's from North America because of her "r" in words as "pure";
2) In many instances, her "i" (as in, "like" and "light") seem to exhibit a typically Canadian feature, the Canadian Rising, even though it's not that strong... in spite of all her "likes", I'd need some more words to check whether it really is the case, such as Jenny saying knife-knives.
By the way, linguistic analyses aside, you've got a beautiful voice, Jenny :)

TBills - the camera is not mine, it's actually infinity HiGH's, he was the one who recorded it. I think my S's also sound lispy because I have a natural tendency to draw them out/over-enunciate them.
Lira - that's pretty neat! Thank you for your expert analysis! :D
On that note, you know what's weird? I don't even hear my own voice in my head the way it actually sounds. In my head it sounds more chirpy or something, lol.

3) Usage of the words "hoser" and "eh"

Fixed. Jen's voice is nothing amazingly new to me, but having my sis-in-law to be living in Toronto, I'm used to the accent as I often end up answering the phone when she calls here.

I actually DO say "eh" a lot. I use it as sort of a confirmation type word when asking people questions about things I expect them to agree with me on.
For example: "It's really hot out, eh?"

gotcha. regardless, the camera (if its a cannon, like i think it is) does add an extra S to a lot of the words. and anything that ends with an S gets amplified.
i think we all hear our own voice a lot differently than what others to.
i always thought it would be interesting to hear it from someone else's point of view.
