It seems there is much discussion about being a Canadian, honorary or by birth. So what does it mean to be Canadian.
First off you have to use the letter U a lot more, and know the order of er vs re - only for US wannabes.
neighbour , flavour , colour , honour, behaviour, glamour , labour , rumour , sabre, kilometre , metre , centre , parlour , liquour , enough

That doesn't make you Canadian - it just means you know how to spell properly and can be equally applied to those of us in the country that invented the language
