Took me 2 mins to find this, I reckon you'll find something similar pretty easy...

I live really close to the boarder so i have like a standard north american accent. I say eh and stuff like that though. I just say it like an american. Alot of people in canada have accents i just randomly dont.
My cousins live a little further north but in the same province. Most of them have strong canadian accents. Alot of people in my city have northern accents almost as bad. A few kids from the nova scotia went to my school. they sound sort of irish like the trailer park boys.
Since i just have a boring accent here is a video of interesting canadian accents.

this is exactly what the people sound like in my region, growing up everyone thought I was from up north, some still believe I am because I dont carry such a heavy accent, mine is almost non existent to most in the hills but it's very noticeable to people from other regions of the country

That's pretty much exactly how I imagined you sounding Pris.

the guy touched on the frecnh canadian accents, my best friend growing up was french canadian, he was exposed to enough english early on that it wasnt difficult to understand him, his mother had a really thick accent.
the US has a small area where french was the common tongue, everyone is familiar with new orleans and the french settling, english of course became the dominant language and the southern accent took over and the cajuns were pushed back into the swamps, many with that southern louisiana drawl like to believe they have the cajun accent going on but they arent even close... a lot of the Zydeco music was heavily influenced by the cajuns and some of the older stuff is in cajun french or cajun english. it's difficult to understand either
cajun french
this is clear cajun english
Creole becomes a whole different critter because it's french from Haiti

I cant even try to sound like that, like I said, most people here think I'm from up north like long island or new york. most people there think I sound like that though. I have a lot of influence from cherokee in my accent which toned it down
having the southern accent did get me free drinks in chicago

Same here, at least that's how I hear myself. More or less like a "neutral" Canadian or American TV accent.

That's how my whole Dad's side of the family talks, mostly from the hills in Kentucky. I didn't grow up in that area though, so I never got the accent. Got a pretty basic accent myself.
I spent some time trying to find a video close to my own. I probably went through 50 videos before I found this one. I'm not from Georgia or anything, spent most of my life in Colorado. But this is how I sound more or less:
I think that's what you would call "General American".

The closest accent that I found to my natural one is this video.... my twang comes out in random times. But I was also raised with very broken english from filipino and japanese english accents as well. So it is a mixture of that.... but again my twang has really dimmed over the years probably because of living in northern virginia. Being around southern accents brings it REALLY brings it out again tho.

i dont really know what I sound like, I know I have some what of a deep voice, yet I don't like speaking loudly so i tend to speak very softly, sometimes I have to repeat myself cuz peeps can hardly hear me, but if I had to guess, I'd say I probably sound a lot like Neo from the matrix, but more nervous, and a lot less literate.. I'm like "yup, nope, umm, yea"

@0:03, you know being a robot and all. I get along great with Enlil.

I don't know what I sound like though, I was raised all over the USA, so some words I say have a bit of a southern accent, some have a northern accent, some words I say are western in origin, this is the problem a person runs into when raised all over this god forsaken country.
I have some recordings I make on tape, boring psychology stuff, will have to play one of those back, I know when we talk we sound differently than how others hear us, so hearing the tapes might be good.
