As a Canadian i can honestly say that I've never came across a fellow Canadian who said 'aboot'. This is as amusing to me as it is to any non-Canadians cause i had no idea they actually spoke like that out east. lmao

Emmet is the #1 offender.

Canadians do say "about" peculiarly, but not quite "aboot", that's the Scottish. :laugh:

The difference to my ears is, general Americans "abawt" and general Canadian "abowt".

Do many Canadian's take words from the Scottish language? I know Nova Scotia is like new Scotland. But I may just be being a little retarded

Just the East Coast tends toward an accent that is Scott like.

It is rather a small part of our population

"sorry" is another word I notice Canadians mispronounce. they say like "sew ree"

They pronounce like 99% of words in an American accent, but there are just few that they say differently so it's really noticeable.
