i just like the french canadain's style of talk.
with expressions like:

throw me down the stairs my hammer
and
you 3 guys half you come with me

Here are a few I have heard with my own ears -

It is now 6 o'clock and a half. (said by a friend in Quebec)

I will broom the floor and close the lights. (by one of my employees at a building supply store in Labrador City)

This works the other way too -

I was managing a building supply in Labrador City, a lot of my customers were from just across the border in Fermont, Quebec. For two years I thought I was saying "See the guy out back." when directing them to pick up their lumber from the yard. It turns out that the literal translation is "Look for the bum boy."

This is why I never make fun of the other guys! :-)

I agree 100%, those french canadians sure do sounds funny :D In a good way though!

I speak french so "throw me down the stairs my hammer" sort of makes sense- french sentence structure with english words :D

How about putting the "H" sound in front of some words and taking it out of others? "De 'ockey player, dey face off at center Hice"
