I've never heard anyone constantly say "EH" in my life and I've lived in Canada for 14 out of my 15 years. So no.But we, say "eh" in normal amounts

Thats why I don't watch TV, besides the obvious fact that's very boring and sucks.

The "eh?" is only in the far western dialect of canada. People in toronto or other eastern areas don't say it.

Yeah, I've been to BC. Vancouver, Edmonton, Victoria, alot of those guys say 'eh'. But, I must say, Banff, BC is the nicest place I've ever been to.
