What accent do you have?

I speak with a standard Canadian English, though the Ottawa Valley Twang does come out (my mum and her family are from the country). You can here in the linked video that there's a bit of Irish-ness in it, and that's because there was a larger Irish/ Scottish population that settled in the Valley and ended up preserving bits of their dialect. .I'm also in my late 20s and am gay (hence the gay voice), so those attributes do colour my accent (gay men often speak more standard dialects of languages and may have higher-pitched voices), and younger generations of Canadians have a less pronounced accent compared to older people.

Here is a recording of my voice: https://vocaroo.com/i/s13Gsncoek6v

The "English shpeaking" is typical of people from Ottawa apparently, and you might notice a little something with the the diphthong in "out" as typical of Canadian Raising, though "about" is closer to "aboat" (uses schwa instead of caret. Normally there's a thing with <ar> in words like in this.
