1. Probably Moose. But I think a goose is more likely to attack you. gently caress geese. 2. Matthew Good Band imo but I also think The Tragically Hip, Barenaked Ladies, and Our Lady Peace are great. 3. You betcha 4. and 5. are tackled elsewhere and I'm not the person to ask. I'm from Northern Ontario and it's pretty "Stereotypical Canadian" up here. We say eh a lot but like someone said earlier, it's so common that people don't often notice it. I also lived in Toronto a few years and it wasn't until then that I noticed that Northern Ontario has a separate accent. I also had to explain to my Toronto boss what a coozie was and he just couldn't accept it. Kept calling it a cozy but cozies keep things warm, damnit! A koozie keeps things cool!

Bloody Hedgehog posted:Those native populations do still exist, yes, but good look finding many Canadians who've ever actually met a native canadian in their entire lives. Native peoples REALLY keep to the reservations in Canada, and there are not many of them to begin with, so most people have never interacted with them at all. I live in Ontario and last census data I saw, 10% of my city's population put down First Nations as their race/heritage. Walk around town here and you'll see indigenous people everywhere. Hell, our post-secondary schools and municipal buildings often have trilingual signs.

In my experience (Ontario), there's sometimes a "the" and sometimes not, and you just learn which are which. For example, head to Toronto, I'd take 69 until it turns into the 400. Then I might go along the QEW. I'd say the 400-series and acronyms tend to have a "the".

My great aunt lived in Montreal for like 40 years and never learned French, so you're probably fine.
