I've noticed this too. They strangely keep saying they sound like ''Washington state''. They don't. They sound very Canadian. Very.

Also back to Sam, he would pause during his most recent TED talk to say ''Ya knooooooo'' every few sentences. In the back of my mind I convinced myself he has to be putting us on but no. Some people sound exactly like ''Bob and Doug Mckenzie'' in this country and for whatever reason more so in Vancouver.
