Watch FUBAR or FUBAR II for some Canadian accents galore. They're more realistic then the Bob & Doug McKenzie or those in Canadian Bacon, for sure, since the films are actually Canadian.
Also, people from Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba can tend to have a slight drawl when they talk. My grandmother who lives in BC pointed this out to me, along with many other people. It really depends who you grow up around, as when I speak I can tend to say words like "stop" "yes" "car" and "boy" in a slight Australian accent.
A common misconseption people have is that all Canadians have the Maratime accent (Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, PEI) When most of us are really only different from American accents in cases like "garage" "groceries" and "roof". The Maratime accent is slowly deterierating however, and many Easterners don't even have the "Maratime" accent anymore.
I FEEL OFFENDED TO BE NOVA SCOTIAN AND TO HEAR YOU GUYS SAY THAT THIS IS NOVA SCOTIAN O3O This is more Newfoundland then anything, but It's say it's more Sterotypical Canadian~ ...Our Accents aren't that thick, just look at my profile on here, I have myself talking in alot of them...I'm born Nova Scotian..-.-
@honeysuckleization well... not ANY canadian. east coast might be more pronounced. i'm from the west coast and we don't say "oot and aboot" like many americans think we do. i'd say it's more of an "oat and a-boat" ("ote and a-bote"). Not super pronounced though. a lot of canadians here say it much the same as west coast americans. very different from southern american though, or ohio... they sound like ay-owt and abayowt to us.
@stevethetree1991 - I never thought I said 'oot and aboot' or 'oat n aboat' but when I was over seas visiting my man's family they all said that they do infact say that. I think it just comes down to the fact that we can't hear it because that's just how we speak! I also never thought I said 'eh' very often but apparently I do that as well.
This is definitely not from anywhere in Canada I've been. Based on CBC interviews around the country, I think this is either some weird Northern BC coast accent or some maritime province, but not Newfie.
LOL i never knew things like newfoundland had an actual accent i mean yeah i know that canada is a big country so there's bound to be different local speech patterns but that's interesting! in BC everything's so multicultural and stuff so(atleast in vancouver) we talk pretty much like the everyday Americans we see on TV, nothing special. :3
sorry, man - you sound more like a Minnesotan than a working class Maritimer. There are a few variations in the maritime accents. The Newfoundland accent is heavily influenced by Irish and southwestern English accents (that's where the bulk of settlers to that region came from). The Nova Scotian accent has a strong Scottish influence. The New Brunswick accent has a definite Acadian French sound to it. Flattered by the effort, though. Keep watcing Canadian tv
well, the accent not that bad. you sound really monotone and borring, but if i met you on the street i might think you are just borring! can you use eh right? that's the real test!
@bigasssuperstar Minnesota is more "Eh... how yah doin'! My name is linkaaaaaarrra. And I hay-ave a minne-sowten ah-scent. Yes. This ee-is my ah-scent. Enjoy it while it lah-sts."
Hard for them to pronounce apostrophes (maybe?). Anyway, that's how Linkara talks (he reviews comics on youtube, very funny guy).
@dubla345 I am not sure if the accent I am speaking in is a Canadian accent.I am 100% sure there is Canadian accents.You implied there was no Canadian accent at all.That is wrong.
@danthemanfresno2006 Explain why some have "chinese accents" when they are clearly a Canadian citizen? Are you reasoning that Canadian accent is everything?
@danthemanfresno2006 I was born in Canada yet I am 100% sure you can not tell if i have a Canadian accent you'd probbaly think I was American or something if i was in America?
@dubla345 There is specific words that I have heard Canadians pronounce that brings out their accent.Say out and about and I am sure there is many more.No matter how similar accents sound that does not make them the same.
@danthemanfresno2006 How could you base your "Canadian accent" on SOME Canadians you have heard. That is not right at all it would be saying America is filled with diabetes and so forth. Your view on this is too baist.
Your entire opinion of Canadians is only based on SOME Canadians.Probably under 1% of them.I did not call this accent the only Canadian accent.I did not say all or most Canadians speak or act any specific way.If people assume I think most or all Canadians speak or act this way then they are dumb.
Some Americans do have diabetes so your statement would be true.If you said all Americans have diabetes then that would be wrong.You did not say that though.
@danthemanfresno2006 Your guess on my point of view having less than 1% of the population of Canada is just terrible. You don't even live in Canada do you?? And did you know Canada is mostly made up of imigrants? You only have to live here to 5 years to be an immigrant. Moreover, if you believe that there are MANY Canadian accents you might as well entitle this video as "Earth Accent".
@dubla345 Do you even know what 1% of the estimated population of Canada even is?
I do not need to live in Canada to know that information.I seem to be more aware of the estimated population then many Canadians who comment on this video.
Earth includes many countries and Canada is just one.You speak as though the other people from your country are not Canadian enough for you.Are you embarrassed of their accents?
@dubla345 I asked what 1% of the estimated population is now.Not what it will be in one year.As for the estimated 360,000 Canadians how many of that number do you estimate you have personally heard?
I am 30 years old and I would of had to of heard just over 32 completely new people per day to get to that number at age 30.That would include when I was a baby.It seems very unlikely that I or anyone else has done that.I am not saying it is impossible but seems very doubtful.
@danthemanfresno2006 Of the 360 000 people what percent do you suppose would not have any "Canadian Accents". I am guessing that over 60% have unchangeable heavy foreign accents.
@dubla345 The Canadians that were not born or raised in Canada would probably not have one.Some people that move to new countries get a combination of both their old and new accent from the area after so many years there.
Their children that are born and raised in their new country would be considered more to have an accent from that country.French Canadian accents could be called just Canadian accents as an example.
What accent? I am Canadian...and I don't have an accent! You people are weird! Yes I do agree with most of you that Newfies have an accent...but that is about it!
"Trailer Park Boys" is a comedy show and they enhance the way they talk to place emphasis on the characters lifestyles and where they live. An accent like this is very localized in Canada. In Ontario we talk like people from Manhattan and in British Columbia they talk like people from California. Everywhere else varies so I recommend you watch some Canadian news shows and pick one you like. As long as you don't say "aboot" instead of about then your fine.
@jazbo808 I was not trying to sound like a Newfie.I was also not trying to sound like most Canadians.The more rare Canadian accents are still Canadian accents.
I would say that this is an Eastern Canadian accent, most notably Nova Scotian, which would make sense because Nova Scotia is where the Trailer Park Boys was filmed. I can't really say that this is a Newfoundland accent though, but that could just be because the Newfoundland vernacular isn't there.
I'm Canadian, this is definitely an Eastern Canada accent. By that I mean New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and especially Newfoundland and Labrador. Listen to ones in Alberta, Saskatchewan and B.C, you couldn't tell if they were Canadian or American, trust me...
@Mikefi90 1% of the population of Canada is estimated to be over 340,000 people.All Americans do not have Texas accents.That is true.People from Texas however have an American accent.If you called their accent that it would still be correct.Just because there is more then one American accent does not mean they don't have one.
Canadian accents that are different are still Canadian accents.
Saying this isn't a Canadian accent when you don't have any idea is very ignorant.
@danthemanfresno2006 MrNintendo never said everyone in Canada talks like he does. He never even criticized the video. Maybe it's not the nicest thing to tell people to use common sense especially when you seem to lack some yourself
@lemonmint3 You lack common sense.Mr Nintendo clearly expected me to talk like him.Then when I did not he made this :/ which implies he was not happy that I did not talk like him.
It is not that I really believe that he is so ignorant that he thinks 100% of Canadians talk like he does.I said that so he might use some common sense next time and not expect a Canadian accent video to be based on ONLY HIS CANADIAN ACCENT when there is other Canadian accents.Do you understand now?
@danthemanfresno2006 I must confess that it sounds like cranston really needs to take a stress pill. Oddly enough although I too am a Canadian who has travelled from Coast to Coast I am not enraged by your attempt at an accent. Truth be told outside of the distinct characteristics of a number of 'East Coast' Accents (most notably those of Newfoundland) and, obviously, the accent of French Canadians the remainder of the country has very little variation in speech pattern.
OMG U SOUND JUST LIKE THAT GUY FROM STRANGE BREW BEST MOVIE EVERRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!! but i am Canadian and that can be very offesive and FYI we don't talk like that i get made fun of at school even by the teachersa because i don't sound british and because we say things like bananas in a different way then the british so u should stop talking like that and anyway THAT MOVIES IS SOOOOO FUNNY :P
@danthemanfresno2006 sorry i wasnt trying to be rude just helping, and ive been to every province lived in most of them had friends from every province and the only people ive hear talk like this is someone with a cold... or with sinus problems, ive seen people say newfie but its not really newfie either, but im sure someone in Canada sounds like this just not a majority.....
It is important to remember that there is a landscape of Canadian accents from the Trailer Park boys east coast accent to Acadian, Quebec, Eastern Ontario, Southern Ontario, Prairies, Alberta/BC and Aboriginal. Then every town can have their own quirks. The is no single Canadian accent.
@danthemanfresno2006 and as you say in this, all you've heard is trailer park boys. it doesn't sound 'canadian'. ive lived here my whole life...
i'm not saying you don't sound like a canadian person, because not everyone speaks with a stereotypical canadian accent. you sound like a lot of americans in this video, does that mean it could double as an american accent video?
@bananasalesman1 TPB was the first tv show I had heard.That was what I meant.How I am speaking in this video was based on the Canadian movie Strange Brew though.I had also heard Canadian hockey people speak.
It does not matter how you think all Canadians sound since you have not heard them all or that you have lived there your whole life.You have probably heard under 1% of the population of Canada.You don't have any idea how every Canadian sounds.
You could also just listen to the Youtube videos spoken by Canadians. Actually, many Canadians speak a lot like many Americans. You don't sound very Canadian to me, but what do I know when I haven't traveled back east?
I watched Peter Jennings of ABC news for 20 years and one day I heard him say "out" oooot and I realized that he was Canadian. 20 years and I thought he was American. BTW I miss him.
Just want to say as a Canadian from Southwestern Ontario that I never noticed the "aboot" or "eh" in our speech. After living in the states for a few years and coming back I can say without a doubt we do have it, it's just undetectable if you're used to hearing it every day. It's not nearly as bad as Americans emphasize, but it is there.
all I got to say is Canada doesn't say "EH" well...just the natives do (not an insult if that's what your thinking) I just hear them say it a lot not so much from everyone. (born in Canada)
@moosiesbud11 If anyone is ignorant it is you.When I was talking about drinking,guns and marijuana that was based on a fictional Canadian tv show.Not Canadians in general.
I also never implied I think all Canadians sound like that.
@cjhoylemusic You are very ignorant.Canadians have Canadian accents.To say that there is no such thing is ridiculous.
The title of this video implied it was based on only one Canadian accent and not them all.I never implied I thought it was the only Canadian accent.Even in the video I mention how other Canadians do not speak this way.
If you tried to do an American accent and only attempted one then that would be fine.
@danthemanfresno2006 I didn't say Canadian's don't speak differently than Americans. However, you can't represent something as a Canadian accent, because there are many different Canadian accents.
You said it would be fine if I only attempted one American accent. How about if I made a video talking with a Boston accent and labeled it "American Accent". Do you really think that would be an appropriate title.
Your video should be "Nova Scotiia accent" or along those lines.
in my very humble canadian opinion " 'BUDDY" from kids in the has the best and most accurate canadian accent....very typical of our refined exquisite canadian accent...you can hear this accent spoken regulary at portage and main on most cold winter days...however this accent changes with the seaons and becomes even more prounouced (no pun intended) during the warm summer months...
@danthemanfresno2006 I agree with Jennie you've got almost a Newfoundland accent, but you don't have the lingo. Well traveled from coast to coast, you're totally missing the whole idea. The diversity of Canada allows for so many accents that it is becoming almost impossible to say it's a certain sound, unless it's french or on the east coast. @JenniePlays he doesn't get it, and makes more assumptions than the accusation he placed against you "hearing every accent"
heres a tip on how to speak like canadians. talk like you would if your werent a twing twang hick and simple enough dont talk like youre british. and there you go, you are speaking canadian
Actually, oddly enough, certain small-towns in Ontario I've actually noticed something quite similar to a North Carolina accent, just a bit of that Southern tinge to it. I think the rural life may be a part of how an Anglophone acquires such a dialect.
@nomnomnomnom0 Of course not.Just because someone attempts only one accent from a country it does not necessarily mean they think it is the only accent from there.I appreciate the fact that you asked me instead of assuming that I automatically think 100% of Canada speaks this way.
If you are Canadian then I wish more of your people were like you.
@MrMawnster :3 Myself and my family have Quebec accent and there is a kid in my class who is from Newfoundland and we talk totally different.. Our teacher made fun of us (for educational purposes) in front of the whole class. xD We had a whole special week where we changed subjects completely with a different class and we had Canadian History and the teacher said "This is how a Quebecois talks and this is how a Newfoundlander talks :3"
Ha ha, not bad, that's an Eastern Canadian accent though, not a general Canadian one. Try saying "Whale oil beef hooked" that's eastern for "Well, I'll be fucked"
@tomroylance I am Canadian.. and I remember my brother and I saying ABOOT just to pretend we had another accent. I mean come on. Not ALL canadians say that.
As far as a comical accent goes it was great, you sounded like you were from New Foundland a little bit, most Canadians don't really have an identifiable accent though. If you want a challange try Ottawa-Gatineau Franglais accent. Keep in mind most Canadians, save for the Québécois, and Newfies (Gaelic influence), have similar accents to the Americans most near by with a few small changes, this is because on average we're no more than a few hundred kilometers form the US-Canadian border.
Lol. The west coast, from BC to ON doesn't really /have/ an accent. There's at least 5 in Nova Scotia alone. Each county in PEI has its own. There's at least 7. Lol.
@robar57770 Oh Ok,that sounds cool....My husband is from Vancouver BC, but sounds like a California boy...except for the way he says "about" "right", and "been" and a few eh's thrown in, you would think he was from California! Of course, I'm from the UK originally, so the long vowel "been" pronounciation is my fault, he rubbed off on my British accent a bit,lol
@TheCatwoman61 well the eastcost Ie, PEI, NS, Newfoundland slang is where the "canadian accent" thing comes from that americans think all canadians have. from Ontario to BC the accent is not at all close like the eastcost and closer to how the us sounds.

A common misconseption people have is that all Canadians have the Maratime accent (Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, PEI) When most of us are really only different from American accents in cases like "garage" "groceries" and "roof". The Maratime accent is slowly deterierating however, and many Easterners don't even have the "Maratime" accent anymore.

Not a Newfoundland accent. I have no idea what this is.
PS3Cakeman9 2 weeks ago
I would say that this is an Eastern Canadian accent, most notably Nova Scotian, which would make sense because Nova Scotia is where the Trailer Park Boys was filmed. I can't really say that this is a Newfoundland accent though, but that could just be because the Newfoundland vernacular isn't there.
katesie98 2 weeks ago
I'm Canadian, this is definitely an Eastern Canada accent. By that I mean New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and especially Newfoundland and Labrador. Listen to ones in Alberta, Saskatchewan and B.C, you couldn't tell if they were Canadian or American, trust me...

@Mikefi90 1% of the population of Canada is estimated to be over 340,000 people.All Americans do not have Texas accents.That is true.People from Texas however have an American accent.If you called their accent that it would still be correct.Just because there is more then one American accent does not mean they don't have one.
Canadian accents that are different are still Canadian accents.
Saying this isn't a Canadian accent when you don't have any idea is very ignorant.

It is not that I really believe that he is so ignorant that he thinks 100% of Canadians talk like he does.I said that so he might use some common sense next time and not expect a Canadian accent video to be based on ONLY HIS CANADIAN ACCENT when there is other Canadian accents.Do you understand now?

@danthemanfresno2006 I must confess that it sounds like cranston really needs to take a stress pill. Oddly enough although I too am a Canadian who has travelled from Coast to Coast I am not enraged by your attempt at an accent. Truth be told outside of the distinct characteristics of a number of 'East Coast' Accents (most notably those of Newfoundland) and, obviously, the accent of French Canadians the remainder of the country has very little variation in speech pattern.

It is important to remember that there is a landscape of Canadian accents from the Trailer Park boys east coast accent to Acadian, Quebec, Eastern Ontario, Southern Ontario, Prairies, Alberta/BC and Aboriginal. Then every town can have their own quirks. The is no single Canadian accent.

It does not matter how you think all Canadians sound since you have not heard them all or that you have lived there your whole life.You have probably heard under 1% of the population of Canada.You don't have any idea how every Canadian sounds.

Just want to say as a Canadian from Southwestern Ontario that I never noticed the "aboot" or "eh" in our speech. After living in the states for a few years and coming back I can say without a doubt we do have it, it's just undetectable if you're used to hearing it every day. It's not nearly as bad as Americans emphasize, but it is there.

@cjhoylemusic You are very ignorant.Canadians have Canadian accents.To say that there is no such thing is ridiculous.
The title of this video implied it was based on only one Canadian accent and not them all.I never implied I thought it was the only Canadian accent.Even in the video I mention how other Canadians do not speak this way.
If you tried to do an American accent and only attempted one then that would be fine.
danthemanfresno2006 3 weeks ago
@danthemanfresno2006 I didn't say Canadian's don't speak differently than Americans. However, you can't represent something as a Canadian accent, because there are many different Canadian accents.
You said it would be fine if I only attempted one American accent. How about if I made a video talking with a Boston accent and labeled it "American Accent". Do you really think that would be an appropriate title.
Your video should be "Nova Scotiia accent" or along those lines.
cjhoylemusic 3 weeks ago
@cjhoylemusic You lack common sense.
One Canadian accent is a Canadian accent.Just because there is other Canadian accents does not mean one by itself is not.
If a father called one boy his son would you tell him he can't call him that since he has more then one son?
A Boston accent is an American accent.That title is not specific but it is still correct.
A Nova Scotia accent is a Canadian accent.

in my very humble canadian opinion " 'BUDDY" from kids in the has the best and most accurate canadian accent....very typical of our refined exquisite canadian accent...you can hear this accent spoken regulary at portage and main on most cold winter days...however this accent changes with the seaons and becomes even more prounouced (no pun intended) during the warm summer months...

I'm Canadian and even I can't do the stereotypical Canadian accent, so kudos.
But in all honesty, if you ever do make a trip to Canada, don't talk in that accent, haha. You'll stand out like a sore thumb.
Aside from the few words we pronounce a bit different, the Canadian accent sounds very similar to the American accent. :)

@danthemanfresno2006 I agree with Jennie you've got almost a Newfoundland accent, but you don't have the lingo. Well traveled from coast to coast, you're totally missing the whole idea. The diversity of Canada allows for so many accents that it is becoming almost impossible to say it's a certain sound, unless it's french or on the east coast. @JenniePlays he doesn't get it, and makes more assumptions than the accusation he placed against you "hearing every accent"

Actually, oddly enough, certain small-towns in Ontario I've actually noticed something quite similar to a North Carolina accent, just a bit of that Southern tinge to it. I think the rural life may be a part of how an Anglophone acquires such a dialect.

As far as a comical accent goes it was great, you sounded like you were from New Foundland a little bit, most Canadians don't really have an identifiable accent though. If you want a challange try Ottawa-Gatineau Franglais accent. Keep in mind most Canadians, save for the Québécois, and Newfies (Gaelic influence), have similar accents to the Americans most near by with a few small changes, this is because on average we're no more than a few hundred kilometers form the US-Canadian border.

strong canadian accents are in the east coast in newfoundland, and Pei and as you go west the accent changes alot.
canadian accent isn't just saying aboot, or eh its also saying words differently,
" Hi By's"
"how ya gettin on their cocky"
"whatta ya at" and reply to that would be "this is it"
"stay where your at ti'll I comes to where your Too"
"whats after happenig By's"
also putting an "S" at the end of a word that doesn't belong. Ie "Listen By's, comes over whee'll get an'er"
