I've never listened for it, and I'm not sure where I picked it up. I
know it's not my own invention, but I can't put a source on it.

Also, I'm curious as to how Americans perceive "Canada like life". I
live in Toronto, which is the biggest city in Canada; there are around 3
million people in the Greater Toronto Area, so I can't represent the
average Canadian.
