I don't have an accent - at least, I don't think I do. Parents from Jamaica but I was born in Canada. If I talk like a Jamaica, it's because I'm trying to be funny.
I have a friend in the south (Florida/Georgia area) and she thinks I speak with an accent. But I think she has an accent. I guess when you live in a place where everyone talks like you, it's all you know so it doesn't sound weird. I was surprised when she thought that I sounded weird.
I just speak like a Canadian who grew up with English being their first language.
