Good day, eh?
Born and raised in Ottawa, but have been living in Vancouver for the past 15 years. I actually arrived here the day after our last hockey riot.
I've made a point of travelling within Canada way more in the past few years. Initially because of the pandemic, but carrying on because of, well, you know. I managed to visit places in 6 different provinces/territories last year not including BC.

Beyond the various First Nations and Inuit groups, there are big Filipino, Indian, African, Vietnamese, and Chinese communities along with a United Nations of young people on working holiday visas. I think I spoke to people from at least 10 different countries over the week. That's pretty impressive for a town of about 25,000 people.

My front teeth are Canadian--I broke them playing hockey, and I believe that is one path to citizenship. But the rest of me is from Michigan. Not sure how exactly you count my teeth in your statistics, but you'll figure it out.

I initially read this as "horses" and was very confused.
Me too. Then I read it again, this time right, and I'm still confused. Never heard any of those terms.
"Hoser" is slag for someone from Canada. Not sure about "bogan" in this context but in Australia it's supposed to refer to a trashy person/redneck.
I thought a hoser was someone who can't play hockey?
