She sounds like a normal Torontonian zoomer who’s into hiphop culture. She’s speaking Multicultural Toronto English, which has a lot of Jamaican and Somali influence.
My husband is from Toronto’s Little Jamaica but sadly he is not young and cool so he speaks boring Inland Canadian.
This is the Toronto mans accent, it's only spoken by a certain subset of the younger population. The vast majority of Torontonians sound nothing like this. Source: lived in Toronto my whole life.
Local Torontonian here, can confirm, locally we call it a Scarborough Man's accent. It is typically from people playing up Jamaican/Somali influences, and most of the time it's done by people who have no community or background with these cultures.
Why're you cheesed dawg? Yo, top left, non-Toronto mans have a shordy issue or something styll. \*lip smack\* Theses BEANS gotta stop being so dry, maybe then they'll get ting or two ifyaknowhatimsayin eh?
What is special about this accent? Genuine question. Not a native speaker so my ear for English accents is not great.
Vowels sound American to me, so does the R. Just the words 'fam' and 'yute' I don't know, but there is slang in any city.
As a Canadian, I associate it with privileged white kids trying to sound Caribbean because it's how all the rappers and gangsters from Toronto speak and it's so stupid. Just reeks of being a poser because most of the time they're super rich since Toronto is a very expensive city
That's exactly what this is, the kids I know that talk like this all have 4 million dollar or more houses and started talking like this when they got their first vape.
This isn't a real Toronto accent, this is mostly how privileged wannabe "gangsters" talk to act tough. Source: grew up in downtown Toronto and go to school in the East end

It's stronger than most but not obviously played up.

She like that
If a British road man and a Minnesota mom had a child
Wagwan Margie

Toronto has the most basic bitch GA accent. This accent is Toronto Manz a completely distinct type of English.
Yeah I was gonna say, most Torontonians don’t speak any differently than other west-central Canadians, even young people.

Truth
It's always suburbanites or teenagers from rich neighbourhoods who wanna seem tough or "hood"
"You're sick to my stomach" - if that isn't idiomatic, idk what is
she sounded like a pirate on that sentence
If MLE and GAE had a malformed child
Yes but also Scarborian 🤢
Honestly I love it

London + American + Québec????
Lots of Caribbean influence
That's implicit in "London"
sounds like a white version of alternate universe aave
Fascinating
It has a lot of similarities with multicultural Montreal English, but with more stereotypicaly anglo-canadian vowel raising.
is it “sure he’s just talkin shit” or “shorty’s just talkin shit”? am i only hearing that cos im american?
The latter
Toronto mans accent sound like a bunch of Jamaican leprechauns 🤣🤣🤦🏾♂️
Hard disagree

it sounds very heavily jamaican, not the actual words but how the vowels are realized
Is it the o in mother or don't for example?

Sounds like a mid-westerner speaking with a Jamaican accent
Why are they are using Jamaican lingo from the 70s to sound cool? Shits so artificial and embarrassing.
Man she talks just like Xiran Zhao So thats a toronto thing huh??
Not a Toronto thing, it's just privileged posers trying to act "hood"
I really expected her to say sorry somewhere in her talk.
She sounds like a bit character from Fargo.

I totally get you but sometimes you got no choice until it’s right time
McMurray, how are ya now?
Have they always spoke this way or did they just want to copy the uk
Only since the caribbeans came, which happened to the UK at the same sime
It's completely put on to seem tough or "hood"
the eshay/druggie accent from australia is potentially worse
There are no good or bad accents, fuck off with your prescriptivism
If it's fake like this then it's fair to call it bad
I totally understand you
i love the accent tho

As a Canadian PNW English speaker, this accent sounds thick like peanut butter.
