"Canadiana" Info
"Canadiana" Info: I will attempt to give you a few items of interest about Canadians. ....It has become a common joke that we all say Eh? Actually I had never heard this expression until it became a joke on Saturday Night Live.
....Most of us do not speak French, but many in Quebec do and some sections of other provinces. I do not myself, although it would be nice.
....I lived in Florida for six years and many people would say that I said aboot and oot instead of about and out. I really couldn't hear any difference. ....We spell some of our words differently, such as: colour, centre, catalogue, favourite, cheque, aluminium, harbour, etc. so I have to be careful or sometime my links won't work..lol.
....A chesterfield is a sofa not a cigarette.
....We say a can of pop instead of a can of soda.
....We go on holidays not always called vacations. Most of our holiday weekends are held on the Monday except July 1st which is Canada's birthday and is held on the exact date.
