> I've never been out west but I assume that BC and Alberta is the most 'normal' of the Canadian differing accents

If Linus Tech Tips is anything to go by, this tracks. All of their hosts have very "generic American" sounding accents. They are very very close to Washington state which doesn't have a strong accent in my experience. Contrast this with Minnesota or northern Michigan and how "similar" they sound to the stereotypical Canadian accent.

Linus has a bit of a Valley Girl sometimes and wholly acknowledges it.
