Some of our Minnesnowta-speak looks rather similar to that. :D

Since stroh never did receive the answer to his question (http://www.golfhos.com/topic-3185.msg41673#msg41673) from someone who fluently speaks Canadian, would you mind answering it for him?

Generally speaking, Canadian pronunciation very similar to American pronunciation in northern states.  I noticed this when I was in Minnesota back in '05.  Since then, I've been to Texas a couple of times, and I really noticed a big difference in pronunciation.
