    My favourite accent is Irish :: swoons :: it's such a pretty accent.
    We have weird accents... we really don't like saying whole words..

    Good Day = G'day
    Hello = G'day
    Good evening = G'day
    How are you? I haven't seen you in a while? = 'Ey (with a head nod)

    And then there's the always faithful slang...
    Crikey = An exclamation of surprise.
    Barbie - A Barbecue grill
    Sheila = A woman
    Bogan = American equivalent of someone from a trailer park
    Dole Bludger = Someone on welfare

    Hmmm... can't think of any more at the moment lol

    Either I've not really met a 'pure' Canadian english accent, or did not heard so much of it, but I find it fine. I find it like some kind of 'in-between' of US and UK.

    The US accent is pretty much like the UK accent, only some words differ in meaning.

    The Canadian accent speaks pure English in my opinion :) I have found nothing strange in how we speak =P besides the Quebecers. Quebec is a separatist nation so I would not consider them Canada =P
