Honestly, I wouldn't expect most Norwegians to be so fine-tuned to the differences between American and Canadian accents, nor so acutely aware of the popular culture and current issues of Canada, for that much effort to need to be put into passing as Canadian.
This is why I've been trying to push people to join the fediverse, especially locally-owned servers. The way things stand, if Norway is so reliant on Seppo tech with Seppo algorithms, all the culture war brainrot nonsense ends up much more easily imported.
โ Apropos "brainrot," I translated an article the other day about how "hip youngsters" watch A Minecraft Movie in English for the memes, while families taking their kids watch the Norwegian dub. This country has totally fucked language politics.
