“Her accent sounds just like Canadians — the most noticable thing is the long vowels, particularly the o’s.”
I Agree. British Columbia has a distinct accent, that is even different that much of the rest of Canada, and living here in the Northwest just a hundred miles from the border I come across it all the time. I once dated a girl living in Vancouver and she did talk allot like Sarah. I remember thinking how cute it was.
I don’t know if you caught the Ice Road Truckers series on History Channel, but I watched both the first and second seasons of it, and to me, she talks just like the Canadians in that series, and if I recall correctly, most of those Canuks were from British Columbia.
