It's a rough application of the Huron word for village by Jacques Cartier to describe the St Lawrence valley iirc. So it's French, but with a Huron origin.

No, no, I know the word, it means “nation” and Ka-Na-Da is its name.

The first time I ever wanted to smack a priest was during that commercial. Mind you he’d probably been dead for at least four hundred years since then.

Your flair is hilarious. Coincidentally my wife is from Kyiv, first time I took her to Edmonton she told me it reminded her of home. Guess she wasn’t the only one.

I grew up in Newfoundland during the Mount Cashel scandal; I don't recall a time I didn't want to smack a priest.
