Most true Canadians will say 'EH' about as often as your average teenage girl says 'like, you know'

"Like you know" sounds like my daughter. I cant stand it when she tries to point something out to you. Like the other day...she looked at me and said Dad..you got a lil " sumpin sumpin " on your cheek there dad.

TimmJ.. I have a 16 year old and I feel your pain. I have also learned if she says.."Daddy I love you.." its usually going to be followed by a request for money..LOL -

I use the "mom, dad, have I told you how much I love you?" line when I'm home visiting and it works great, I always get a cooler full of prepared meals to take home, and my mom is a chef, so it's DAMN good!

My favorite band is Living Colour, so I prefer that spelling. As for the oddities, technically they are both right. It depends on where it is being used. On an international english speaking forums such as this, both are correct. Don't get your pants ruffled.

Same here. I grew up in a neighborhood where were one of the VERY few white families. I always listened to rap and hip-hop...but then Living Colour introduced me to rock that wasn't all screaming and angry, and actually had some soul.

The cigarette issue is the greatest source of amusement.
I don't suppose to many people in the states have been asked "Can I bum a fag?"
Regional dialects are always interesting as well. There is a massive variation in the way that English is spoken across Britain. Try reading Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh.
