Justin Bieber appeared at the Hand-in-Hand telethon on Tuesday night to introduce a prayer.“I’m super grateful to be part of this cause," Bieber expressed. "We don’t want you guys to just watch, we want you guys to be a part of this and donate, whatever you can, it doesn’t have to be much — just whatever you can possibly give."

In Canada there many words and expressions that are particular to the country, because Canada culture is more unique than you think. Here is a list of some of them:
1- Brutal
Mean savagely violen, unpleasant or harsh.
2- “eh?”
Pronounced “ay”. This word is the classic term used in everyday Canadian vernacular. Used to indicate that you don’t understand something, can’t believe something is true or if you want the person to respond. Similar to “huh”, “right?” and “what?” commonly found in U.S. vocabulary.
3- Hoser
A foolish or uncultivated person, of uncertain origin; popularized by characters on the Canadian television show SCTV (1980–82).
4- Chersterfield
A large, overstuffed sofa or divan with a back and upholstered arms.
5- Kerfuffel
A scuffle or commotion, typically resulting from conflicting views.
6- Klick
Slang term for 'kilometer.'
7- Loonie (Toonie)
A loonie, the Canadian $1 coin, gets its name from the picture of the Canadian bird, the loon, that appears on one side of the coin. A toonie, the name for the $2 coin, gained a similar nickname to match the sound of the loonie. Spoiler alert: these loonies and toonies aren’t the same as that commonly known American childhood cartoon.
8- Timmies
Timmies refers to the much-loved (though, mediocre) fast-food coffee chain, Tim Hortons, which gets its name from a famous Canadian hockey player. If you don’t know or love Timmies, you’re not a true Canadian.
9- Toque (or Tuque)
Pronounced: “too-uk” or “tuke”. Derived from the Arabic language, it found its way into the Medieval French lingo in the 15th century. Canada’s French influence is prevalent in this word, which refers to a cap with a small brim, or without a brim entirely. It’s usually worn when it’s cold or in spring … so, pretty much year round.
10- Washroom
A room with a toilet and a place to wash your hands in it, in a public place such as a restaurant or school
