Or the Canadians, of which we have many in An Tir. They don't wear a big
'C' on their foreheads, and some of them don't say 'eh' after every other
word...

My dad is from Canada. I grew up sometimes spelling with the u in the
middle and the 're' instead of 'er' on the end. No particular rhyme or
reason to which I use at any given time.

Sounds like Master A is a proponent of Teddy Roosevelt's theories on
spelling and grammar? Or is that speling and gramer? ;-D)
