Newfies definitly have an accent. I am 3/4 newfie and I can barely understand my own dad. My grandma and my aunts and uncles are worse though, and when they all get together I have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. I don't think I have an accent though, but last time I was in Florida, people said that I did.
I have never once heard a Canadian say aboot, but I have heard Americans say it many times. I have a cousin (from Ontario) who was talking to her cousin (from Conneticut) and she said about and they were like what are you talking aboot? I thought it was Americans that say aboot not Canadians...
