I've never heard either.
I am totally guilty of over-using "eh." Fucker slips out onto the end of sentences without me even noticing it. Drove one girl I dated absolutely insane. Well, insaner.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

The TV show How I Met Your Mother has taught me that Canadians are afraid of the dark.
I've no other choice but to believe it.

Who needs pants when you have the lower body of a goat?

I'm pretty sure some goats would take offense to that, they aren't all exhibitionists.

When the Soviet Canuckistan Revolution comes, you'll be first against the hockey net!
We would use walls but we don't have those up here. So we use nets. Very efficient.

Bah! You may not hear your own accent, but I sure as frig know how I pronounce about!
As for How I Met Your Mother... I can neither confirm nor deny the validity of those claims.

And so the First denied their Mother,

I work with a Canadian lady who uses "eh" all the time. If she wasn't the sweetest person in the world I'd be tempted to murder her for her vicious colonial desecration of the English language. Her husband's an American, so God alone knows what horrors their children perpetrate on my beautiful mother tongue...
If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. If some one maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. … So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find, on examination, that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants. Bertrand Russell

Aboot. You say ABOOT. Let's just admit it and move on, eh?
English is an ugly language, btw. It's the germanic background to it that does it.

You, sir, are a pompous wit.
