Americans think we say oot and aboot because we pronounce 'route' 'root' and not 'rout'. Route being a french word originally, we pronounce it closer to its original pronunciation rather than phonetically. however Canadians do not say oot and aboot.
@freakyflow we still use colours not in our flag. CRazy, I know!!
And red, white and blue are in the British flag, the Australian flag, the French flag, the Dutch flag, the New Zealand flag, etc. Not exactly clear markers of anywhere. Blue is also seen here as the "French" colour traditionally, while Red is the "English colour"
@freakyflow i think it may be because the canadian flag is red and white,the quebec flag is blue which is where molson originated.i think, im not to sure just guessing.
Well.... since I don't drink, I'll have to go with the not having to pay for gas, No... wait, I don't have a car either. At lest I have hockey gear, hooray! :)
lol was this video pre or post twilight? Ive heard that question a lot since twilight came out. (movie not the book before any of you trolls wanna be nazis and call me on that)
if it was a cool vampire like in Daybreakers or Underworld, then ya. but not if its the Twilight pre teen bitches that sparkle in the sun like pixies or some shit.
The Olympic Committee will investigate the actions of Canadian women's hockey players who celebrated their gold medal victory by swigging beer and smoking cigars on the ice in Vancouver. A number of players, including 18-year-old Marie-Philip Poulin, were drinking alcohol on the ice following the team's 2-0 defeat of the United States. (The legal drinking age in British Columbia is 19.) Players lingered for more than 70 minutes after the awards ceremony reveling in the arena.
How do you sound American? There speaking English and its not like they said sofa or soda of any word in the American language that is different from English. Or do you believe they would say eh every 3 words?
A lot of Americans are wrong about a lot of things to do with Canada. It's classic American ignorance! We don't say "aboot" instead of "about" or "ruff" instead of "roof" (although I have heard plenty of Americans says that). I do use the word "eh" a lot though as do most other Canadians I know.
Well to me this commercial is definitely American. I live in a Canadian city that is close to the US border. I've also traveled in Europe and have found that the Canadian accent is very different to the American one.
I can instantly tell if someone is American when they speak. It's kind of like they have a bit of drawl. Not a deep southern type drawl, but just the slightest to make it noticeable.
well.. i could tell the difference between north america, UK and foreign (indian, japanese, latinos..), but in uk and north america, i can't tell the difference between the inner accents..
I know there are different American accents - I live in a city that is close to the US border. Just a question (and I'm not trying to start an argument here): have you ever been to the UK? American accents do not sound British! There are a ton of British accents and I have yet to hear an American who sounds even the slightest bit British naturally.
I'm not saying that is what you said. You probably aren't as familiar with British accents as I am. I have yet to hear an American accent that sounds even the slightest bit British. Which parts of the US have accents that you feel sound British ?
Well, unless you go on a hike across an entire nation and have a conversation with every local of that nation, you'd never get a full spectrum of all the accents of that nation...
Well I lived there for a while so I'm a bit more familiar with the various types of accents :D The BBC it seems only allows persons with certain accents as broadcasters.
which differences did you see ? why are there no good videos showing this? haha.. i somehow have to be able to diferenciate americans from canadians through their accent.. and i see no difference at all.. don't ask why... haha
you can absolutely tell! American accents are generally sharper and they over pronounce a's and r's, Canadian accents are a lot softer and their sounds are just rounder and not as annoying LOL.
this has nothing to do with Canada; I prefer the classic commercials better!

The thing about the American accent though is that we have about 50 accents ourselves.
We have southern, northeastern, some places have canadian accents, I've even heard some places sound like they're British
