it's stupid, I always spell it color and favorite in school anyway but the teacher says I don't know how to spell
I haven't met anyone in Canada who says aboot.But we do say 'Eh?' a lot though. Like, "Oh yeah eh?!". I had to discipline myself not to say it.

Yeah, in Canada, we never spell it like "color" and "favorite". To me, it looks stupid, and uneducated.
