Ricky, here are some websites to get you started on Canadian slang.<BR><BR>http://www.slanguage.com/canadian.html<BR><BR>http://abe.www.ecn.purdue.edu/~agenhtml/agenmc/canada/speak.html<BR><BR>http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A179561<BR><BR>http://www3.sympatico.ca/taniah/Canada/misc/<BR><BR><BR><BR>I don't know why you are receiving somewhat hostile responses. Maybe you don't need a 'dictionary' but more of a slang converter since Canadians do speak English. You just need to learn the 'slanguage.'
