Canadians!!!

[Vlad The Inhaler]

Who here's a proud Canadian? I know I am. Even if u arent, you hafta agree we're pretty rad, dont deny....

[Snyfin]

might move there...

[zen_arcade]

I love Canada. :) especially Montreal. just a good well-rounded, attractive country.

the only thing that bothers me is that weird inferiority complex a lot of Canadians seem to have. you know your system is more humane and pragmatic than the one in the States, but it's like you always have to remind yourselves of that fact. I don't care about America one way or the other personally, but hearing "we're better than America" all the time always seemed to stem from some sort of national sense of insecurity. interesting how the phrases "proud Canadian" and "proud American" are about as different as White Power and Black Power.

[darkain]

I've been living here for 6 years. Its alright.

[mr.greenxxx]

ive got a qestion, do you all say abut instead of about?

[makesmomcry420]

im half canadian, but my canadian family is pretty lame, actually my american family is lame too, but yea i plan to move to canada. just not newfoundland

[darkain]

ive got a qestion, do you all say abut instead of about?lol, those are the people on the far east coast (mostly newfoundland) So saying we all talk like that would be like saying all Americans have texan accent. Myself, I've got a heavy dutch accent :P

[short-man420]

[RELAYER]

Greendale is a bodaciously small town, Lane. A fly speck on the map - a rest stop on the way to the ski slope. I can't even get real drugs here!

sorry that was off topic but its funny movie :rolleyes5:

[Splosh]

Haha green its aboot, instead of about. And they actually do say that. I watched some of digitalls videos on SK and they really do say Eh/Ey a lot and aboot :P.
I've always had love for Canada, i dont know why. Canada and Australia are two countries i really like yet have never visited. People from both of them generally are friendly and they both seem to have an intelligent Government.
The best thing i've ever read about Canada was something that said ....-

"We're bigger, and we're on top. If this was prison, you'd be the bitch"...

[mr.greenxxx]

theres no canada like french canada its best canada in the whole wide world XD LMAO, there was this kid in my school, he was like 4 years younger, anyway he was canadian and talked really really slow, but i loved his accent, i actually love american accent more than brittish, even tho brittish are who made the original language. i still think its aluminium instead of aluminum hehe. ages ago the revrend made a topic about how queen of england was going to be queen of us and everything will change to brittish haha that was really great XD

anyways, i'm a proud Canadian, i Love Vancouver and will never move anywhere else to live throughout my entire life, for me there is no better place in north america, and probably the world then Vancouver, i'd highly recomend anyone who hasnt been come, and i would challenge anyone staying there to say that it's not one of the most chill places they've been

[connor69]

ive got a qestion, do you all say abut instead of about? i think they do some places in canada ... sorta like an accent ... but EVERYWHERE ive been in canada they say it normal ... and ive been alot of places here

[digitalldj]

the only people who have really fucked up canadian accents are the east coast people, in newfoundland and labrador they have a long history and past of speaking kind of their own dialects

[connor69]

shit you already got your answer . My bad ... but yeah i guess we do say eh alot, but it fits and i think its the perfect word ... can be used anywhere , and splosh that movie you saw might have been a parody?/

yeah ... they have there own words and shit , its funny to hear them talk somtimes, but some of there normal sayings are sweet

[sHIP of fools]

I never noticed- but people tell me i have a "strong New Jersey accent". I really didn't know people from Jersey could have an accent any different from NY or PA, or how accents could be based on states...but people from Indiana or any western/southern state say "WOW you got a strong jersey accent".

blah. I think there are Jersey accents, but the thing is, most people in Jersey don't have them. where are you from?

[seizedbyanger]

but i like boston accents, and austrailian accents.

i live pa but my accent is like a retarded mix between a philly accent and a southern accent.

damn all those years in rural west virginia

[Stella_Drives]

My accent comes out in full force when I'm angry and about to beat a bitch up. This is really rare though.

[makesmomcry420]

my speech developed in southern new hampshire (my fav state so far), like in nashua so i really dont have much of an accent, its wierd when i run into ppl with a super heavy Rhode Island accent

[slaterr]

canadas the shit
its such an easy place to make a living
exept if your homeless then its retardly hard to get a job in alberta
since you need a permanent addy to get a job

[sourdiesel06]

Why all the hate for Newfoundland? One of my best friends in high school was from up their and it sounds cool as hell (especially for a pothead) even if they are the favorite joke of the rest of Canada. But no, it's not just the people from the maritimes that say aboot. As an American hockey player I've had an opportunity to get to know people from all regions of Canada and realized that each region of Canada has its own distinct accent. From an American standpoint, people from BC tend to have the least noticeable accents, people from Ontario and Alberta are very similar and about average, people from Nova Scotia/PEI seem to have a more intense version of the Ontario accent, and newfies are in a league of their own (where's ya to by?).

[Naoki_ninja]

What about Quebec? im french canadian; but unfortunatley, it's only by blood. My father was born there, and he sorta had an accent, and my grandma had a major accent!- so, is it french, or canadian?

[sourdiesel06]

Ya, I was only talking about the English speaking provinces minus Saskatchewan as I have never met anyone from there. I can say though that from my limited experience that people from Quebec and New Brunswick have a different accent when speaking English but I've only ever met one person from New Brunswick.

[smokindude]

I live in the best country in the world.

[ShortyAH]

there's a big difference in new brunswick and quebec accent and even in quebec it changes from cities to other cities

yeah man ... preety much totally right. haha i love those crazy sayings

new brunswick is almost the same as B.C. , just some different words and shit like everywhere. But everywhere in canada is mostly the same until you get to the east coast, if not the same very mild accent, in my exsperince

[yazzer]

Canadians are funny, civilized and intelligent.
I like.

[sourdiesel06]

[sourdiesel06]

there's a big difference in new brunswick and quebec accent and even in quebec it changes from cities to other citiesYa come to think of it, pretty much everyone I've ever met from Quebec was from Montreal. And a lot of them grew up speaking English as well as French.

[ShortyAH]

Ya come to think of it, pretty much everyone I've ever met from Quebec was from Montreal. And a lot of them grew up speaking English as well as French.
I would say that quebec has a problem with that, we use too much englisism in french and we speak english at the same time. The French in Quebec isn't the same at all if you compare it to the Europe one. I'm from Baie-Comeau in Quebec (650km east of Montreal) and it's the same everywhere.

Montreal is probably a good city for peoples who want to come and see what Canada or Quebec look like but others cities that we don't talk much like mine are probably the best ones. All the energy and the resources come from here.

[makesmomcry420]

new brunswick is a really cool place, that is where my canadian family is from:) i would move there but i really dont want to be anywhere close to any family

[jusdino4it]

I wish i could say that I was...i have two aunts...does that count???

[swazo]

Proud Ontarian.

[Metallideth]

Proud Nova Scotian, its chill as fuck out here.

Newfoundland and Labrador have some interesting accents for sure, but don't forget the south shore of Nova Scotia; an accent best described as Newfoundland + England, mixed with a lot of alcohol.

I've got a buddy who grew up in Nova Scotia but lives on PEI now, who has never had just a couple of drinks in his life. He's always either sober or hammered, never in between. Plus I mean Trailer Park Boys is set in Nova Scotia... it can't be THAT far from reality.http://www.hipforums.com/forums/images/newsmilies/cheers2.gif

[Metallideth]

Hahaha, I've ran into the trailer park boys in Halifax a few times, Bubbles was going to do a speech at my high school a few years ago.. didn't happen though.

All kinds of people out here are either blazed or loaded .. or both, quite often. Lots of interesting people, to say the least. It's lame that a lot of the west coast people treat us like shit when we're out there though, we're just trying to take advantage of the high paying employment for a few months, lol.
