My quebecois wife and I went to A&W here, and she ordered a poutine. However, she pronounced it with the French accent so it sounded like "pootsin". The guy asked her twice what she wanted, not understanding what the heck she was saying. I finally interjected with "pooteen", which is the correct English Canadian pronunciation.

She was not amused.
