I was in the Niagara Falls area (Canadian side) a few years ago and I would say that about half had American accents and the other had the stereo typical Canadian accent. Though the ones with the American accents could have actually been Americans who just work on the Canadian side.
Honestly though, the Canadian accent isn't much different than Wisconsin/Minnesota accent. That whole Great Lakes area was heavily settled by Scandinavians so in addition to the Brits and the French, so it's almost like an evolved combination of British and Scandinavian.

I agree, Australian sounds like a cross between British and American with their own slang thrown in. Though I always thought that the American half of that equation sounded very Southern American.
