It's Pop!!!
As for your questions, In major cities people don't say aboot, in places in the country where farming communities are, probably. But the whole country doesn't say it.
Eh on the other hand is something we mostly do, not alot, but do. Kinda like how Americans answer most questions with huh?
Also nothing is more anoying than An New Yorker's accent...
Albany is spelt with an A!!! not an O...
: Good afternoon!
: I have a Bit of an irreverant question to ask y'all, but i'll go ahead anyway.
: Do Canadians' really say aboot?
: Being British and ignorant to the rest of the world (like many of my U.S friends)American and Canadian accents merge into one and haven't been able to figure it out. Unfortunatly for me and our great nation i don't beleive our 5 channel visual onslaught broadcasted degrassi high.
