Accents develop naturally as individual regions begin to pronounce words differently than the shared ancestral pronunciation. Every person has an accent, the only difference is that it is very rare that people who live in the same place throughout their lives notice their accent because everyone in their vicinity has the same accent, but journey far enough away and these people will discover that everybody thinks that they have the odd accent.
Since Canadians likely live far away from you, they would appear to have an accent relative to your accent.
I am a Canadian and we DO NOT have a funny accent! We just have a unique accent, different from America.
Canadians typically pronounce "dollar" as "doll-er," with a clear emphasis on both syllables. The pronunciation may vary slightly by region, but generally, it retains the familiar North American accent. In casual conversation, they might also shorten it to "buck" when referring to money informally.
Singular: "frances" or "francesa". Plural: "franceses" or "francesas".The first option is for male or generic; the second option for female. The male singular should have an accent on the "e"; but answers.com doesn't show special symbols correctly.

Some similarities are their accent. Americains have a very different accent then Canadians. Many Canadians enjoy the outdoors, Americains enjoy shopping or big cities.

Yes, Canadians do have a distinct accent that is often characterized by certain pronunciation patterns and speech patterns, such as the pronunciation of certain vowels and the use of "eh" at the end of sentences.
Well, there is a stereotype that, Canadians say eh? after most words. That is not necessarily true, yes some of us do say eh occasionally, but very few say it after every sentence. Many Canadians do not have accents, but some areas do have people who say about as aboot, and so on. so i suppose that that would count as a "Canadian accent" however not all Canadians have this
The main difference between American and Canadian accents is the way certain vowels and consonants are pronounced. For example, Canadians tend to use more British English influences in their pronunciation compared to Americans. Additionally, there may be differences in intonation and slang between the two accents.
French speaking Canadians are called Canadians. English speaking Canadians are called Canadians. Canadians are Canadians.
Canadians have a tendency of using long vowels, so when they say sorry it comes out "sOHrry" while Americans prefer short vowels. Also, Canadians say words like out and about differently, instead of "owt" as Americans typically say it becomes "oot" or "ewt"

ANSWERPractice, practice, practice. Talk with friends, listen carefully, play with the words. Record yourself and listen. This is very powerful. Musicians are sometimes amazed when they hear recordings of their playing. There is something about performing that alters our moment-to-moment experience of what we are doing.Everyone speaks with an accent. To me, English without an accent will sound very accented to people in the UK. So think in terms of modifying your accent, if you want, not eliminating it. Accent is not a bad word; speaking well with an accent is a beautiful thing. Nonsense spoken with clear, unaccented diction is still nonsense.ANSWERWe Canadians like to pretend (and most Canadians actually believe) that we don't speak with an accent. If that's true (and I don't believe it to be so) then the way to speak without an accent would be to speak like Canadians. Tune in Canadian radio and television stations, and listen to Radio Canada International, our shortwave service.ANSWERYou can't. Even so-called 'Standard English' using RP ['Received Pronunciation'] is a regional dialect, being generally defined as what is spoken by educated people in the South-East - but if the capital was in Manchester rather than London, Standard would be what we now call Mancunian.
