Do you want an online resource, or a book to buy?

Hello Audwilly,

For an online dictionary, see the following page:

British, Canadian and American Vocabulary (by Karen Bond)
http://www3.telus.net/linguisticsissues/britishcanadianamericanvocab.html

And for a book, see:

The Canadian Oxford Dictionary - at Amazon.com
http://amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0195417313
"Oxford has another winner on its hands with its latest entry in the
dictionary marketplace. The new Canadian Oxford Dictionary (COD) is an
instant classic. This is a well-researched, comprehensive study of
Canadian English incorporating words and terminology from Canada's
diverse ethnic cultures and its every region."


Hope it helps!
