Transcript
00:00 Hey, I'm Lauren Spencer-Smith,
00:01 and these are my favorite Canadian slangs.
00:03 (upbeat music)
00:06 My first Canadian slang is a toque,
00:10 which apparently are called beanies or toboggans in America,
00:14 and that's not what a toboggan is,
00:16 but we call them toques, the hats you wear in the winter.
00:19 The second thing is a loonie.
00:21 That's what we call our dollar coin,
00:23 which is not a dollar bill.
00:25 Do you guys have $2 bills?
00:26 No, just $1 bills,
00:28 but we have a coin for $2 called a toonie.
00:30 And the third one is a canuck,
00:33 which people think Canadians are called canucks,
00:36 but it's actually a hockey team in Vancouver.
00:38 And those are my favorite Canadian slangs.
00:41 (upbeat music)
