It was never specific to a province unless I met other Canadians, but when meeting English speakers from all over the world almost all of them immediately identified my friends and I as Canadian. Main factor for them was enunciation, said our accent was very similar to NW Americans but the pronunciation was clearer. That also why all of the Thai, Filipino, and Vietnamese people I've met say they preferred to talk to Canadians when learning English, as we were the easiest to understand. It was always fun having to translate for a Scottish buddy of mine when the locals had no clue WTF he was saying
