The full quote from wikipedia:

So, your "corrected pronunciation" to me was for a different word. Try again.
Everyone calls it wuus-ter sauce, so no your point doesn't really matter.

By the way, I prefer knickers.

I watch plenty of English TV still so maybe that helps. One thing I like in Canada is most people know the accent. I have only been asked if I'm Australian once Someone thought I was Scottish aswell for some reason
