Book Description
More than one long joke about "Oot and aboot," this book details how those in Canada speak more than just English or French. We have a vocabulary--and a number of dialects--all our own. So, sit on the chesterfield with a box of timbits and read this tongue-in-cheek take on Canada's unofficial language.
