Though dS most definitely counts as Canadian. Unless Chicago accents have changed a whole lot since the time it was filmed and the last time I was actually there.

Oh lord, I know! In fact, the moment CKR opened his mouth, I was slain by his 2x4 Canadian accent. I'm used to it now, but initially much hilarity.
