I can spot a Canadian accent fairly quickly. But then, I've got a weird ear for accents. I get all the heavily-accented callers at work, because after I sort out what their accent is, I usually have no trouble understanding what they're trying to say. The only time I had a real problem was when the lady from Texas called in. She had a very heavy Texas accent. Only it was overlaid over her very heavy Korean accent. Once I knew the word she was saying was "sales" it all clicked into place and I no longer had a problem. I feel sorry for the salesperson I handed the call to, tho.
I can do a mean Irish accent. My faire character was born in Ireland, but her father was Romanian. Complicated back-story, with her father being a character I took from a book.
