Lived in Quebec, Canada up until recently. My family called it coke.
I'm from Quebec, always called it a soft drink, or boisson gazeuse.
I have never heard another Canadian ever call it coke, everyone where I live calls it pop.
I'm pretty sure that as a Canadian you're suppose to apologize for that now.
As a Canadian I would never apologize to someone from Quebec.
As in, a family member would say “can you get me a coke from the fridge?” And you’d reply “what kind?” And they’d say “sprite!”?
Because that’s what this is referring to. I’ve never heard it anywhere outside of the south.
You (/family) may need to speak with the Canadian Government to take a retest for your Canadian citizenship.
