BTW: Does Canada use English spelling or 'American English'?
No idea. Maybe some Canadian users have the answer.
English, mostly. Colour, armour, centre, etc
There's actually been a push on in the last 5-10 years to "Canadianize" usage again - another variation on our *real* national sport, fending off the Americans. :)
That said, the only time I worry about 'proper' spelling of English (Canadian localization) on my computer is in my spellcheckers... and I just realized that OpenOffice's "Canadian English" settings seems to accept both "armour" and the misspelled "armor" as valid. Time to file a bug!
