Re: [wEr\ Ar\ ju: fr6m] ?

I am from:

City:  Norwalk ['nOrwQk]
County:  Fairfield ['fEjrfild]
State:  Connecticut [k@'nE4Ik@!]
Country:  United States [ju'naj4Id 'stEjts]

Nearby cities:

New York [nu'jOrk]
Stamford ['ste@~frd]

But now I live in:

Montreal [mVntSri'O:l] or [mo~Re'al]
Quebec [k@'bEk] or [ke'bEk]
Canada ['ke@n@d@] or [kana'da]

Because I go to:

McGill University [m@'gIl junI'vrsI4i] (that's a syllabic
r)

But I must say that my [e@] before nasals is beginning to
change to [&] -- that Canadian accent is catching up with
me quickly!

([r] is American r and [R] is French r.  also [!] is
glottal stop, right?  geez i am getting rusty...)
