That's exactly my understanding as well, KatieGirl. They just don't have a clue.

That "eh" thing is so played out. I don't think I've ever said that in my life. Well, maybe once or twice.
I have relatives in Canada. They say it plenty.Quote

Not to be divisive but I think this is more of an eastern/central Canada thing than Western.

I don't know anybody in Western Canada. So you may be right there. All my relatives are in Ontario and Newfoundland. The accent and amount of "eh"'s I get seem to get thicker the further East I go. As soon as I get to Newfoundland it's like that old joke about the Canadian alphabet: A=Eh, B=Eh, ...

The 'teens' here overuse the word "Like" so I think there's more in common with California-speak on the West Coast.
Still, we maintain that Canadian sensibility.
