Canadian Language and slang help

Since there was this girl named canucker on a website that everyone assumed was a guy :lol:

That very well could be...

So are we changing the definitions of Canadian slang? lol

Just for this comic book...

Just to further complicate things, how about some "Canadian Cop slang words "?

Lets start with the all round, one size fits all desrciptive adjective for those we deal with all day long.......Scrotes.

A male who preys on young boys, a chickenhawk, or a diddler.

A wino with facial brusies or cuts has " wine rash ".

Handcuffs are " jail jewellery ". Not to be confused with gangsters "cheap and vulger jewellery ".

A spark plug on a 3 foot length of string is a " B and E door key ", for breaking windows

" Not a real cop " traffic division officers.

The Versaci guys ........Homicide dicks, known for their sartorial splendor, at least in Toronto

The Saturday Night Fights, twice a month, when the welfare cheques are delivered, when they have money they fight, and then they call the cops, to decide the outcome. The usual response is .................Everybody is going to jail, no favourites here.....

Lets make a deal.............Said by the drug unit coppers to the newly busted idiot, who is given the choice of going alone, or with some friends. Most will give up the supplier, in return for " good words with the Crown Attorney".

Decoy toy ....a female cop that stands and attracts "johns" for a "pross sweep " of the corners.

Computer commando.........sex crimes unit dicks who "work the sex net " looking for perves on-line.

A square john is a regular citizen who has no clue that he is being "conned " at all.

A "rounder " is a criminal, who is "in the life for the long haul ". By age 40 they are either addicted, serving a life sentence, or dead, or all 3.

" Irish Travellers " are a loosely connected group that numbers over 15,000 people, who live a nomadic lifestyle, in both Canada and the USA. They are small time "grifters " who specialise in home repair rip offs of elderly people. They do chimney and brick and asphalt repairs, as well as the "drink of water " rip off, where a woman and a child go up to a house and ask for a drink of water, the child is trained to steal, while the "mother " keeps the home owner distracted.

I T's are also well trained "boosters " who can steal just about anything out of a store, from steaks to fur coats, using their kids as a distraction device, where the kids crap on the floor or vomit on a staff member to create a visual distraction while other " familiy members " are carrying out arm loads of stock. Not to be confused with Gypsys, the Irish Travellers can be traced back to a single Irish family that arrived in Canada in 1904. They are proud of their ability to "steal their needs" without being caught. I have seen I T's who were over 60 who had never had a "regular job " in their entire life.

'Hill billiys " are the low enders who can be found in any small Canadian town , jammed into a dirty house with a dozen kids, 4 rottweilers and a 3 wrecked cars in the driveway. No amount of effort by social services seems to be able to bring them out of their self imposed poverty and criminality. On the other hand, it is easy to find them , if they are wanted by Police. <grin>
