It drives foreigners crazy, they can't tell which.

As a British expat living in Canada, well Quebec, I can vouch for that. Until I learnt that it's usually used to turn a statement into a question, eh? I just figured you Canucks were a little off...

Can anyone advise me? Snow day so I plan to put a bunch of hours into my patrol ... need to stretch my legs!

Enough of that talk Skipper-I am 62 and you are not offering a lot to look forward to next year.

Yes, that one is a little hard for non-Canadians to get their head around. Living in Quebec must give you a whole lot more strange inflections to learn as well.

We Canucks are a little off, considering we have the national comfort food Poutine, and here in the Maritimes we have the original Halifax Style Donairs. People who eat those concoctions just aren't right.

It sure is.

No redeeming qualities except being a guilty pleasure. </with a paranoid look around, grabs plate and hides under table to eat>

Poutine is simple the greatest dish ever invented. If only they'd had Poutine on U-Boats...
