I have just moved my last post to the adjoining section because I can't wait so long to get an answer. I'm flying any day now and I desperately need to call my host family. At least, to find out if I should take any electric appliances along. As far as I'm aware all Canadian electric devices operate at lower voltages than those in Russia

I wouldn't worry too much about pronunciation. Remember that Canada is multi-cultural, so you're going to run into a great deal of people who speak (Canada) English with an accent.
You were so right in saying this! Now that I'm in Canada I can see why you said so. There are lots of people speaking English with an accent. There are such a lot of different nationalities here! Most of them are residents, so they speak very good Enlgish. Our teachers are native Canadians though.
