I just got back from the East Coast. Almost no one (that I ran into) had a really discernible accent. I could count on one hand how many people sounded East Coast.
I was a little disappointed.
I know some people from the west coast though. I didn't think they even had an accent?
As for the new layout - not a fan. I found the old style to be cleaner. Oh well.
Everyone has an accent! You just don't think you do when everyone around you sounds the same.
I do find it kind of interesting that aside form French speaking regions and the maritimes, most Canadians do sound the same.
