Written by Bill Casselman. Published by McArthur & Company, 2006. Description: |
| Here are 500 Canadian sayings just to laugh at, and Canuck words
that Canadians of any age will find fascinating. These words and sayings are
perfect for the whole family and approved for classroom use. In this volume,
Casselman has kept in the witty and funny sayings and cut out the expressions
that are too racy for the family dinner table. In this new anthology, Casselman delights and startles with word stories from every province and territory of Canada. Did you know that Scarborough means "Harelips' Fort"? To deke out is a Canadian verb that began as hockey slang, short for "to decoy an opponent." This is the book on Canada's words and sayings that should be in every house in the country where people are proud to say: "That's Canadian, eh." |
