Thanks for interviewing Jim, Ray!! Love your questions and Jim's humour. As a Canadian, I had a good chuckle at the memes. We definitely say "eh" and "sorry" a lot. 😆 If people don't like the cold weather, winter might not be the best time to visit. 😂 But do come and enjoy the sights and the food. 😁🇨🇦🍁
But hey, 45C above isn't that ideal for visiting either, and since Canada's four seasons in most regions are "Winter is coming ~ Full scale Winter ~ Winter almost over ~ Road Construction" in loops, I personally can't quite find a good time for others to visit. Just kidding, Metro Vancouver is mostly fine😂
Little information...Michael Cooper is a MP(Members of Parliament) who is elected politician not a Senator who is appointed by Prime Minister Love this video 😍
Fantastic! Glad to see Jim Nickel settled in. We love all things Canadian and do our best to represent the culinary side of Canada in Taiwan. 超開心看到更多加拿大的介紹在台灣。吃的部分我們來處理。
2:40 I hear that a lot in New Zealand from Pacific Islanders a lot, too. I sometimes say it to replace "Pardon me?", "Is that right?" and "No way...", especially when I get tongue-tied.
剛從美國搬到加拿大真的會注意到"sorry"跟"about"的念法差異。加拿大的sorry比較像"sOrry"美國的是"sawrry"；about我比較不會形容，好像是有些人才有的口音，Jim 在2:49也有說about，大家可以聽聽看，我已經開始聽不太出來了😂 Am I on the Road? 我也有玩過，第一次還有附加飄移。有時候煞車還煞不太下來，那時候才知道煞不住車子會凍凍凍的聲音，不管多累馬上嚇醒 😂 但不管怎麼說，大自然真的很美。夏天的時候很多「公園」根本就是國家公園或森林，很適合去走路。秋天的時候，樹都有各種不同的顏色很美。
加拿大人的 about 比較像是 abEut，他們說 out 的時候也會說成 Eut。好像喉嚨扁掉，然後加個 E 或 I 的音在裡面。 今天第一次聽到 Jim 的 sOrry，感覺蠻新鮮的。以前在學校跟著台灣的老師說 sOrry，結果被美國中西部來的老師糾正：要說 sArry，law 也要說 lA... 現在感覺好像說什麼都可以。😆
Michael Cooper 是 Alberta 省的 Member of the House of Commons 意思是眾議院議員，他不是參議院議員(Senator)。加拿大只有眾議員是民選，參議員是由總理(Prime Minister)提名再由總督(Governor General)任命。總督是英國女王或是國王在加拿大的代表人。基本上這個國家的制度比較像英國的內閣制而不是美國的總統制。
People in England DO talk about the weather. People in New Zealand do as well. Both complain about rain, how cold it is, or howw dry it is during a drought.
5:09 It's like England with Football, rugby and cricket New Zealand with rugby and rugby league and netball to a lesser extent and USA with baseball, basketball, American Football and ice hockey to a lesser extent.
