Canadian Blacks and Jamaicans really do sound alike

Fair point on the weather but distance is relative. Flights are not hard to come by.
You still haven't walked in and lived in a Black Canadian's shoes. Why should brehs be so quick to judge... I don't know what nasal accent you talking about...I have cousins, friends in Canada. I am Born n bred Jamaican
None of my nikkaz have a nasal tone to their voice/speech.
I'm tired of explaining this point it's so fukking redundant.
Eventhough I don't do the mandem accent I know why it exists. When I got to Toronto... MAJORITY of the nikkaz here didn't even listen to rap. Back in the day if you were in Scarb all you heard was dancehall booming out of car systems.

Im thinking when they migrated back then It was more of a convenience thing with the distance situation. Haitians ans Cubans are heavy in Florida.
Why fly all the way to Canada when America is right next to you with great weather and beautiful women.
I get off at 5 in the A.M.
Nah, it's easier to emigrate to Canada than the USA
I found it different when I visited Mississauga in the early 2000s. As a kid growing up in upstate ny, my best friend was a Jamaican dude and we would go visit his fam over there at times. Im west indian myself and got fam in Canada as well. They( at least the 2nd gen) use to say "guy" at the end of the sentences lol that would have me and my boy rolling 
... you could hear the yardie/Caribbean undertones but it was a bit different
