这段宣言有点意思，是Ｃａｎａｄａｉａｎ广告文案

[胡同里来的人]

Hey.
I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader, and I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dog sled, and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice.
I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak English and French, not American, and I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'.
I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peacekeeping, not policing; diversity, not assimilation; and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.
A tuque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch, and it is pronounced zed: not zee ? zed!!
Canada is the second largest land mass! The first nation of hockey! And the best part of North America!
My name is Joe!! And I am Canadian!
... Thank you.

This is the once famous "Joe Canadian Rant". But shortly after, this guy moved to the US.

请教请教

这里边有的我还不太明白那：
and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,
什么意思？是说老美认为加拿大人都叫这名字？

and it is pronounced zed: not zee ? zed
这是什么呀？是子母Ｚ的发音吗？

先谢谢指教了．

是字母Z，老美发 zee.
刚到加拿大时，我还以为我发音不准，老要重复。却原来根本就是念法不同。
