A BC lexicon of three words

An interesting facet of living in a new place is acquiring the local wording... Here are some we learned in moving to BC...

Pro-D day - not a tough one, but on Ontario we called it a PD day and if you use that here, people are confused.

Stuffies - again, not hard to understand, this is what we call stuffed animals like Teddy Bears.

Gym Strip - what students wear for gym class, e.g., "go throw on you gym strip and do 10 laps". This one makes no sense to me.



A sunrise is still called a sunrise though.
