    Maybe, but I wasn't brought up in Canada, and I still detect no accent... By the way, the Australian accent is tops too, I especially like the way they say huge, makes it really sound big

    D'you mean: It's a beautiful day, ey? Well, I'm in Quebec, don't know about Ontarian habits, yet only the older generation says that. And Canadians don't really have a distinguished accent, because their english is between brits and american

    it certainly sounds like an accent to my kiwi ears. My lecturer is canadian, and you really can tell. It's quite a nice one though, very easy to listen to.

    I've got a lot of Irish in my blood, but sadly, no cool accent.

    I'm Irish. and the only accent I talk with is western PA accent....my wife used to talk with a very heavy southern accent, but since shes been here this long, she really doesn't anymore.
