Okay, I did it. I made a video of me saying all the words that Canadians apperently say...oddly that were supplied by Kayte, Nikki and Darran.
Try not to mock the sad pathetic Canadian girl too much. I felt like a tool making this.

I expect everyone else to make their videos now!

Haha Sucker.

You fell for our little joke.

Seriously though that was awesome, I say Torono in work since I am a Canadian wannabe. You said my name pretty cool too but that milk in a bag makes you a right weirdo.

Milk in a bag isnt weird!!
How am i supposed to say your name? There are only so many ways to say "Darran."
Good job on the Torono. You are now welcome here.

You are insanely cute!! I love your hair and your wellies. Doesn't she say house in a most precious way?

Do I have to do a video? My Judge Joe Brown appearance showcased my accent pretty well.

wheeee, great idea!!!

FINALLY I got to hear a real Canadian accent, our vampire is always holding back his real accent, I think he doesn't want us to copy it *hmph* ;)

I'd love to listen to all kinds of native accents soon, so please MAKE THE OTHERS DO IT, too!

I'm a little concered now that people think these things sound "precious" and "cute."
they all just sound normal and...non accented to me.

A hippo faced puppy?

I think she is very hip - look at her hair, shoe choices, and wall color.

Ahh!! Anne's right. You're so cute!!!
"House" is my favourite word!!! :o)

There's no way I'm doing a video, I have the most horrible sounds-nothing-like-normal-english accent ever.

What you didnt see is that there was a hockey stick about...25cm from the camera.
I will show you proof that I play hockey if you want it.
I am a little puppy :(
Oh and you also didnt see the first 2 attempts when i would have to stop and go "eff...that doesnt make sense!" And one I didnt say it, when i watched it back I noticed that i just mouthed the word "fuck."

I have no idea what is strange about the way i say "house" !!
Edit: I just realized that there are in fact 2 hockey sticks in my room. One was JUST out of view.

I remember we used to get milk in a bag delivered in Scotland when I was about 4 or 5 years old (30years ago), We didn't have any thing that the bag fitted in, You got a Glass Jug from the Milk Board and cut the corner off the bag and pour the milk into the glass jug and kept your jug in the fridge, I don't even think it had a lid.

I think only the NATIVE speakers should do one. Err, they wouldn't expect Spanish or German (or French, haha) native speakers to do this, right? Because in this case I want a video of all of them speaking German and Spanish and French first! ;p
