    technically, the Canadian dipthong is A as in father into U as in put, while the American one is A as in Dad into the E in the. To an American, it sounds closer to oo because of that, but oo is too rounded and tongue too raised. (I’d use the phonetic alphabet for more precision, but I don’t have it installed on this phone)










  • Perhaps a market approach to housing is the core of the problem. I don’t know, and I’m just tossing out an idea triggered by the repeated explicit assumption you’re making (“inside a market system”). I am tossing out the idea in the spirit of cooperative “yes, and…” discussion, I am not challenging your point, and I am not interested in debate, but rather, conceptual exploration to see what ideas might emerge. (If you know De Bono’s work, what I am saying is, “po housing is not based on a market system”).
