My favorite encounter with a Canadian accent was when I heard a perfect rendition of Moira Rose's voice (Catharine O'Hara on Schitt's Creek) behind me at the farmer's market in rural Western Ontario last summer.

Jesus, the telemarketing calls are especially relentless today. I just ignored #5, and I think they're all from the same people who've been calling all week, and whose numbers I've already blocked twice.
I got 19 calls on my work cell phone from Burundi last weekend.
Je suis le president de Burundi.
