@awolditzy I just speak from experience. Though you don't actually hear a lot of Canadian slang (at least not in my area) some words still pervade here. Like if you ask someone here about a beanie they'll probably have no idea what you're talking about but if you ask them about a toque they'll know exactly what you're referring to. Also pop is pretty much always used as opposed to soda, though the term soda is familiar. Also serviette is used in lieu of napkin, hydro is short of for hydroelectric and is your electricity utility, and everyone knows what a double-double is. Oh, and myself and a lot of people I know say eh a lot. It just works its way pretty naturally into dialogue.
