I'm a Newfie but I don't have a newfoundland accent at allll. I can talk like that if I choose because I know the lingo and slang from living here. But the majority of the people that talk like that are the ones that usually don't have any regard for english whatsoever.




I work with a lot of newfies and most of them are totally incoherent. Every now and then I will come across one that speaks with a perfectly normal dialect. Usually engineers or QC inspectors.

Common traits among Canadians? Most really like the word fuck no matter where your from.

The only thing that's true for everyone is that we're Canadian.

The rest is individuals being who they are.

I don't mean to be mean here, but in my experience it's the people with lower IQ's and people that haven't been around a lot of people that talk like that. A lot of people who work in trades here talk like that.

Myself, I in the Occupational Health and Safety field so everyone I meet from here are intelligent. Some may still have accents, but I do not. People are usually amazed when I say I've lived in Newfoundland almost my entire life.

I work in the trades myself. I remember when I first started one of the guys pulled me aside and warned me to stop talking the way I was. He advised me that to fit in I needed to swear a lot more and to use a grade 5 volcabulary. I found out later he was a chemical eng that had a hard time fitting in at first :lol:

I never had a problem with Canada until I went to Sasquatch in Washington State and had to camp around thousands of them in a festival setting. They're really obnoxious, and all they talk about is how great Canada is and how much the US sucks. They're very frat bro like - beer bongs and lots of shouting. Not that tons of Americans the same age aren't the same way - but I don't hear them going around talking about how much Canada sucks all the time either.

I get it, Canada. You've got an inferiority complex, and you try to over-compensate by talking up Canada and talking down the US.

OP is no better, at all. Like I said - I have no problem with Canada, except that so many Canadians I met seemed like dicks. I'm sure you've got a beautiful country, and while I don't appreciate Justin Bieber or Avril Lavigne, you've more than made up for it with Neil Young and Tommy Chong.

I would not change the way I talked or swore more often just to fit in.

I'd tell them to fuck off for telling me that though :lol:

Its tricky where I work. Its less about fitting in and more about not being labled a rat. Rats often end up with their d ring sawed through and shoved off the steel.

Not that I need to worry about being a branded a rat, most of them saw right away that I liked weed and that was good enough.  They still gimme a lot of shit but its not malicious.

Usually drugs. Most of the sites and construction yards are rife with hard drug users.

i used to work construction and do drugs all day at work. i'd smoke weed and have a beer before i left, and do whatever i was able to during the day. alot of times i came home with all my drugs used up and felt like shit all day after work. it sucked sometimes, in hindsight

i filled a water bottle with wiskey on numerous occasions and noone really noticed or gave a shit. i was pretty careful about snorting stuff though, i always did that in the portashitters

Lol. Yeah people can work 16 - 18 hour days for 24 straight all the time. But if an accident happens they can just piss test everyone and blame the guys who couldn't get some clean piss in time. Lets them continue on with their retarded  schedule and quotas, well John smoked weed people, its case closed. Lets cram 65 people onto the next one n git er done.

16-18 hour days are ridiculous. I would have it changed if I could.

And an accident should be blamed on the person that caused the accident. Obviously. Furthermore there should be no accidents on the job site in the first place. Which is what my job is for.

i was also only pulling cable. sometimes we have to get into uncofmortable spots, or up on ladders and lifts, but that was never really a problem

pulling cable is like the easiest construction job there is, other than painting.

Accidents are usually caused by people sitting in air conditioned offices making cavalier decisions. The men in the field suffer the worst. Nothing is going to change that.

My job is to make sure workers are as safe as possible. I'm like the bridge between workers and those people making cavalier decisions you're talking about.

It might seem like they are annoying to you, but my job is to keep you safe. There are regulations, aka LAW that everyone has to follow while working. Hard hats in a construction zone is one of them.

I don't intend on going to jail because you decide to not wear your hard hat at the end of a project when something accidentally hits you in the head.

Do you see my point?

Yeah there is a distinctly Canadian pronunciation of "about" but it sounds nothing like "aboot." The Scottish actually do pronounce it "aboot."

Because a bunch of wooks goofing off at a festival are a good reference for the way an entire country acts.
