A common American misconception about Canadians. I originally thought it was just our usual American idiocy when it comes to foreign accents, but you SHOULD give both Canadians and Americans a break.
Canadians say 'about,' but they pronounce the 'ou' like the 'oa' in boat. Hence, 'aboat.' The Canadians I know (Who are technically French-Canadians) say 'aboat.' When you think about it, they pronounce it more eloquently than we do.
Me: Say "Canadians don't say 'aboot', they say 'about'."
My Friend: Er, "Canadians don't say 'aboot', they say 'aboat.'"

the most fucked up way possible to say "about"
Why don't you just go ask aboot?

Clever american..hmmm. If Canadians say something that sounds like aboot then fine. In Scotland people pronounce it like that. Anyway, Americans have destroyed the English language.
There's a moose loose aboot this hoose

Common way a Canadian would say "a boat"--this can cause confusion for an American who would decipher it as "a boot" (as in cowboy).
American: "What the fuck is an ironclad?"
Canadian: "I don't know...aboot?"
American: "What? Like a shoe!"
Canadian: "No dumbass, like a yacht, a ship, a canoe, a bark, a schooner, a barge, a raft, a sloop, a cruiser..."
American: "Wha?"
Canadian: "Forget it."

Canadian for 'out and about'
Away message:
Out and about. Or for all you Canadians - Oot and aboot.

A phrase replacing "no doubt about it" used when mocking Canadians. This phrase ironically is used mostly by Canadians mocking the stereotype. This is perhaps the reason why Canadians are mocked; creating a vicious cycle.
Bob: "That there snow sure is high, eh?"
Doug: "No doot aboot it, by. Soon there'll be too much to go ice fishing and seal clubbing, eh?"
