Tell Sydney she got the definition of hoser wrong. In hockey it's the losers job to hose down the ice at the end of the game so a hoser is a loser. The two guys she picked were characters called Bob and Doug Mckenzie ( Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas) from the TV show SCTV which is also where the late great John Candy and others got their start, they were definitely a couple of hosers but not just because of the way they looked.

I haven’t heard these in Western Canada (BC) except for toque and mickey. I only use toque out of all the slang phrases shown here. I’d love to see western vs central vs eastern Canadian and USA speakers comparing accents, slang and vocabulary. Different UK counties and Australian states as well. It would be interesting to see how different they are throughout our own countries.

Hoser is kind of an oldschool thing and was never really well documented. That segment on SCTV, the Great White North, popularized it and defined it to an extent, and there is not really a consensus on the meaning. Give 'er isn't really slang, it's a phrase that is poorly pronounced, like how we don't really pronounce both Ts in Toronto (I often say more like Torana myself). Some things also just not everyone will know, even if it is common within their local region. That's common across most things. I never heard Canadian tux until I was in my '20s, even though I dressed in a Canadian tux for a lot of my life, and have never lived outside of Canada (or Ontario even). Never heard "nize it" before, and apparently it is specifically Toronto slang. I have lived in Toronto since the '90s. Hosers I only know because I love SCTV. Some things you only learn through very niche experiences, even if the usage can seem broad.

I responded "Well in Ontario it has two meanings, a small drink of alcohol or a quick short trip. What does it mean where you come from and why are you asking?" He replied, "Out west if you go to a burger joint they serve you a beaf burger if you want a hamburger you ask for a Nip. I was asking the girl in the canteen for a Nip and she just game me a dirty look." So we found one of the french boys and asked. "What's a Nip here in Quebec?" His response." Oh that's Sex."

They definitely appeared on SNL and Letterman after they became popular in the US. But the bit originated on SCTV in Canada. It was a throwaway skit that they came up with when the CBC network required two more minutes of Canadian Content as per government regulations. It was just supposed to be a time filler, but it became one of SCTV's most popular segments. It spawned a hit album and a feature film called Strange Brew. So "Take-off, eh?" As a polite Canadian I'm bound to say that I wasn't trying to be rude. "Take-off eh?" was their famous catch phrase. 😊🇨🇦🍁

Hoser is a pretty archaic slang word. It came from the 70s when there was a gasoline (petrol) shortage and a hoser was the type of guy that would siphon gas out of your tank instead of buying it. You use a hose to siphon fuel out. So that kind of dirtbag was called a hoser.

Ok, so like, "Give'r" was originally Newfie sexual slang. The full saying is: "Oh yahs my son, bend'r over and give'r!" - In a full Bonavista Bay accent. It's akin to a father yelling "That's it son, make me proud!" at his son's hockey game with the twisted Newfie sense of humour attached. Apparently, Newfie dads are proud of their sons' prowess in certain "non-hockey" activities as well. 😅 "Give'r" caught on nationwide in curling because that's what the Newfie skip would to yell instead of "HARD!" at the Brier. Nobody has more charisma than a Newfoundlander so it caught on quick. The rest of Canada just adores people from Newfoundland because they really are some of the best people on Earth. Don't ask me how I know, I just do. 🤣

Around my neck of the Canadian woods, it sounds much more like “ah-boat” than “ah-boot”. I’ve never heard it pronounced “ah-boot”.
