Ted Woloshyn Podcast

When asked what stereotypes of Canadians they have most seen on U.S. TV, 71.4% of Canadians said the "funny accent". You know words like "eh" and "aboot".

They also think we're perceived as being "dull and apologetic"

This week a survey commissioned by the Writers Guild of Canada tells us what we think, they think, about us. 

So put down your hockey stick, grab some maple syrup and enjoy the President of the WGC, Bruce Smith, with more great insights. Brought to you by @TomsPlaceTO.
