Default Canadians, Kiwis, Aussies and their flags

While it's a bit easier to arrange a dummy spit than a pacifier spit, Allens
would not like to know you were having a Soother spit.

They also say many other things differently from Midwestern Americans
(although some people in some parts of the border Midwest states have a
similar accent--Minnesota, for example). They tend to use British words
and phrases, and some that are exclusively Canadian (example: American
"pacifier" = British "dummy" = Canadian "soother").
